General Information
TaFlux ETV series ultrafiltration (UF) membrane module TFETV-60 is a pressurized module, which is designed and manufactured for the filtration of surface water, potable water, seawater and industrial wastewater. These UF modules are made of new generation PVDF hollow fiber membrane with high fouling resistance and hydrophilicity.
TaFlux ETV series UF module TFETV-60 is applied in new systems, as well as directly connected to existing UF systems as replacements, providing high-quality filtrate by removing suspended solids, colloids, pyrogens, bacteria, viruses and other impurities to protect downstream processes.
Features
- Outside-to-inside flow direction
- New generation PVDF hollow fiber
- Nominal pore size of 0.025 μm
- Typical filtrate quality SDI ≤ 2.5, turbidity ≤ 0.1 NTU
Advantages
