The RO machine is controlled using the Operation Screen. The FILL button energizes the inlet solenoid valve allowing the RO machine to fill water. The machine will run for ten

(10)minutes filling the machine. This needs to be done before the RO machine can oper- ate. Once the machine has been filled the RO, CIP, and PURGE buttons will operate.

The RO button controls the RO machine when it is in Run Mode. If the RO machine is not in Run Mode, the RO button switches the RO machine from its current condition to Run Mode. In the AUTO position the RO machine will shut down without going into Permeate Purge.

The CIP button controls the RO machine when it is in CIP Mode. If the machine is not in CIP Mode, pressing this button (CIP) will switch the machine from its current mode to CIP Mode. See the Operation and Maintenance Manual (P/N 1161875) for details on running CIP. If the machine is in CIP Mode, pressing the button shuts the RO machine down.

The PURGE Button controls the Permeate Purge Cycle of the RO machine. If the RO machine is not in Purge Mode, pressing this button will switch the RO machine to Permeate Purge for ten (10) minutes and then turn the machine OFF. If the RO machine is in Purge Mode, pressing this button will shut down the machine.

The AUTO/HAND Button, located under the Purge Button, controls Permeate Purge oper- ation. In the HAND position the RO machine will only go into Permeate Purge by man- ually pressing the Purge Button. In the AUTO position, the RO machine will go into Permeate Purge when the RO machine gets a signal from an external device, like a level switch.

The ALARM Button takes the user to the ALARM HISTORY Screen, described later (Section 2.3).

The INFORMATION Button takes the user to the MACHINE STATUS Screen, described later (Section 2.4).

The UTILITIES Button takes the user to the UTILITIES Screen, described later (Section 2.5).

The ALARM RESET Button is used to clear any alarm conditions, such as low inlet pres- sure, high permeate pressure, or motor overload. This button needs to be pressed before the RO machine will operate. The ALARM RESET Button on the Control Enclosure may need to be pressed as well.

The SYSTEM message, located under the Control Buttons, shows the user the current sta- tus of the machine. During shutdown, this message will display reason for shutdown.

E8-CE, E4H-CE specifications

The GE E4H-CE and E8-CE represent the latest advancements in electric locomotives, showcasing GE's commitment to innovation and efficiency in rail transport. These models are designed specifically for freight applications, delivering a powerful combination of performance, reliability, and environmental sustainability.

One of the standout features of the E4H-CE is its robust traction system, which is engineered for maximum efficiency. The locomotive boasts a high horsepower rating, allowing it to handle heavy loads with relative ease. Its lightweight design contributes to reduced power consumption, making it an economical choice for rail operators. The E8-CE takes this a notch higher, incorporating advanced traction technologies that enable optimal torque distribution across all wheels, enhancing overall traction and stability under various load conditions.

Both models are equipped with GE's state-of-the-art digital control systems, which foster seamless communication between various locomotive systems. This integration allows for improved diagnostic capabilities, ensuring that operators can monitor equipment health in real-time, leading to reduced downtime and increased efficiency. The user-friendly interface provides essential data at a glance, empowering engineers to make informed operational decisions swiftly.

In terms of design, the E4H-CE and E8-CE feature aerodynamically optimized shapes that minimize drag. This not only enhances fuel efficiency but also contributes to reduced noise pollution, making them compliant with stringent environmental regulations. The trains are built with durable materials designed to withstand the rigors of freight transport, ensuring longevity and lower maintenance costs.

Additionally, both locomotive models offer various options for upgradable technology, including hybrid systems that combine traditional electric propulsion with battery assistance. This hybrid technology is part of GE's broader initiative toward sustainable transport solutions. Furthermore, the E8-CE is equipped with regenerative braking systems that recover energy during braking, reintroducing it back into the grid or using it for auxiliary systems, thereby enhancing overall energy efficiency.

In conclusion, the GE E4H-CE and E8-CE locomotives exemplify cutting-edge technology with an emphasis on performance, efficiency, and environmental stewardship. Their advanced features make them suitable for modern freight operations, promising cost-effectiveness and reliability while paving the way for a more sustainable future in rail transport.
