XLP-4040 2300 GPD Commercial Extreme Low Pressure RO Membrane Element, ( Best Membrane type to filter maple sap )
Max Water XLP-4040 2300 GPD Commercial RO Membrane
- Reverse Osmosis membrane elements for commercial drinking water systems are the industry's most reliable method of water filtration. Advanced membrane technology and automated fabrication allow these elements to deliver consistent performance that equipment suppliers, water treatment dealers, and residential customers can rely on. Our Reverse Osmosis membranes are shipped dry for convenient handling and long shelf-life. Our ISO9001-rated membranes are rated at 60 psi and will purify about 20% more water than competitive elements rated at 60 psi.
- XLP-4040 standard flow is 2300 GPD @ 100 PSI, Now if you reduce pressure to city water to 60 PSI, pressure is reduced; therefore permeate flow will be approximately 1200 to 1380 GPD according to the incoming low pressure you apply.
We suggest changing your membrane every 2 years
The best Membrane type to filter the MAPLE SAP allows for a greater flow but can pass small amounts of sugar as concentration increases. Check this PDF file for more details about A Sap to Syrup Guide.
Specifications
- 2300 Gallon Per Day Membrane for Commercial Reverse Osmosis Systems.
- Certified to ISO 9001 Standards
- Removes particles down to 1/10,000th of a micron (removing 98% of impurities including organic, and inorganic contaminates, chemicals, ETC.).
TDS = Total Dissolved Solids.
Membrane Features
- Provides stable, high rejection of contaminates even with high TDS water sources.
- Advanced membrane technology with innovative thin-layer composite membrane design.
- More consistent performance with less fouling requiring less frequent cleaning and change-outs.
- 100% dry-stored membrane maximizing shelf life.
General Information
- The first full tank of permeate should be discarded, DO NOT use this initial permeate for drinking water or food preparation as it may contain carbon fines and manufacturing by-products.
- Keep membrane moist at all times after initial wetting.
- To prevent biological growth during prolonged system shutdowns, it is recommended that membrane elements be immersed in a preservative solution.
- The membrane shows some resistance to short-term contact with chlorine (hypochlorite). Continuous exposure, however, may damage the membrane and should be avoided.
- If operating limits and guidelines given in this bulletin are not strictly followed, the limited warranty will be null and void.
Usage
It is applicable to the desalination of municipal water, and groundwater with salt concentration less than 500ppm. It can be widely used in pure water preparation and related industries.
