Ultra-low Pressure Spiral RO Membrane Element
ES20-D
99.7% NaCl Rejection at 0.5-0.6 MPa Ultra-Low Pressure Operation.
Outline
ES20-D is a fully aromatic polyamide ultra-low pressure spiral RO membrane element suitable for applications such as primary desalination of ultrapure water production systems and desalination of brackish water. Its excellent features allow drastic reduction in electric consumption, facility costs such as pumps and piping, and saves required installation space.
Features
- The NaCl rejection is as high as 99.7%
- Enables extremely low-pressure operations at 0.5-0.6MPa.
