When it comes to sanitary membrane elements, there is a stronger choice for processors of dairy products, sweeteners, beer and wine, pharmaceutical products, proteins and many other process streams. TurboClean® elements feature a rugged polypropylene shell that results in a stronger, more rigid and durable element better suited for the most challenging process applications.
TurboClean elements are available with all membrane types (RO, NF, UF, and MF) and are manufactured to a precise diameter that reduces bypass flow by 60% or more when compared against conventional full-fit, net-wrapped or caged membrane elements.
Reduced bypass flow is the key to water and energy savings with TurboClean sanitary elements. Studies show up to 35% water savings and 22% energy savings are possible. TurboClean elements can help companies as they work to achieve sustainability goals now and in the future.
TurboClean elements have a patented hard-shell design and are the strongest sanitary elements available. Proprietary fabrication technology results in extremely tight elements that virtually eliminate channeling (“smiles”) and feed spacer migration, enabling longer operating life and better system economics. With this robust design, TurboClean elements are better suited for challenging applications where their superior structural durability protects the membrane from damage.
Reduced bypass flow maximizes cross-flow velocity at the membrane surface resulting in more product throughput and better overall product yields.
Because of their consistent and controlled outer diameter, TurboClean elements are easy to load into and unload from systems with no “tails” to trim.
