Developed out of extensive field experience in RO and other membrane plants around the world in the past 21 years, the Silent Alarm^TM utilizes a unique, real-time fouling monitoring tool that detects and measures fouling development as early as it starts to occur in your system, giving you, the plant operator or owner, an early-warning alarm with recommendations for corrective action so that your plant does not have to suffer subsequent and costly losses in water productivity, quality and availability if fouling is allowed to progress undetected.     What is an Early-Warning System?

This MASAR^® software screen display is based on the results of monitoring a one million GPD brackish RO/NF demonstration plant for the City of Port Hueneme, California, the United States.

It shows how the Silent Alarm^TM would have discovered and identified the on-going biofouling problem many months before it was actually detected too late at the plant, resulting in significant performance losses and subsequent reduction in plant availability, productivity and cost-effectiveness. The system continued to show that the nanofiltration train, unlike the RO train, still suffers a performance problem, later verified as a membrane manufacturing defect even after the biofouling problem was corrected!
