Efficient and economical control of a reverse osmosis membrane water desalting process is dependent on rapid, repetitive, and correct monitoring of the feedwater parameter called the plugging factor. Several test devices are available to plant operators for monitoring the feedwater plugging factor. Operation of these devices requires much close manual attention every day, and the accuracy of results sometimes varies. A totally automatic plugging factor test assembly was designed, fabricated, and demonstrated. Water samples can be selected and passed through the plugging factor tester every 20 minutes, with plugging factor accuracies within plus/minus 0.4 percent.
