Abstract

A method in a separation system including parallel fluid paths each having a separation module and an adjustable flow restrictor positioned downstream of the separation module. The method includes (1) measuring hydraulic resistance in each of the parallel fluid paths by stopping fluid flow through all but one of the parallel fluid paths, (2) identifying which of the parallel fluid paths has a hydraulic resistance higher than the parallel fluid paths remaining in the separation system, and (3) adjusting the adjustable flow restrictors in each of the parallel fluid paths separately. The adjustable flow restrictors are adjusted such that the hydraulic resistance in each parallel fluid path is approximately equal to or higher than the hydraulic resistance of the parallel fluid path identified to have the highest hydraulic.
