PES Inside-Out ultrafiltration module for Pentair Norit X-Flow Xiga 40 UF membrane direct replacement equivalent
General Information
TFXG40 is manufactured as equivalent, direct replacement, alternative and retrofit to replace Pentair X-Flow Xiga 40 ultrafiltration(UF) module equivalents.
TaFlux XG series ultrafiltration membrane modules are designed and manufactured as equivalents, which are used for production of process, potable water and wastewater. Major applications are the filtration of surface water, potable water, industrial wastewater and municipal sewage. TaFlux XG series ultrafiltration modules use naturally hydrophilic PES hollow fiber ultra-filtration membrane with excellent performance.
The mode of operation is feed-and-bleed with a minor cross flow or dead-end with regular backwash (with filtrate only) and chemically enhanced backwash.
Features
- A nominal pore size of 0.02 μm
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane composed of a blend of polyether sulfone and polyvinylpyrrolidone
- High performance and very good anti-fouling characteristic
- Typical filtrate quality SDI < 3, turbidity < 0.1 NTU
- Membrane filtration provides 99.9999% (LOG 6) reduction of bacteria (Pseudomonas diminuta) and 99.99% (LOG 4) reduction of virus (MS2 colifages) by mechanical means.
- Suitable for horizontal installation
Advantages
- High quality raw material
- High thermal and chemical solvent resistance
- High chemical tolerance for cleaning
- Optimized design, high resistance to fouling
- Economical equivalent element for direct replacement in Xiga, X-line or Aquaflex systems
Applications
- Surface water
- Potable water
- Seawater desalination
- Pre-treatment of industrial water
- Industrial wastewater
