Simpson - Model UF APC-640FL -Ultrafiltration Membrane Element for Wastewater

• Low fouling: APC UF membranes are made from PES material, which has excellent chemical resistance to strong levels of disinfectants such as peroxide or hypochlorite, allowing sufficient removal of bacterial growth.
• Very fine pore diameter: With a nominal pore diameter of 0.03 μm, APC UF membranes effectively remove pathogens, most viruses, bacteria. turbidity and silt. In addition, the membrane’s high porosity allows high flux operation (up to 800L/M2/HR ) at a given transmembrane pressure and a given aqueous solution quality.
• Durable double-walled fiber structure: The distinct structure provides excellent durability and resistance against breakage, even with periodic cleaning procedures to remove fouling.
• Inside-Out flow configuration: Systems designed with APC UF use an inside-out flow configuration with Front & Back Flushing, which allows for low clogging and high solids loading, high flow area and easy cleaning.
• Dead-end or concentrate bleed capabilities: Although the primary flow design is dead-end filtration, modules can be easily adapted to a concentrate bleed mode.
• Simple, modular design: APC UF membranes comes in three different modules ( APC(5,10,20) FL) and can be configured in a simple modular design providing a compact footprint with a production flow (1-1000)GPM and more.
• PVC housing: APC-UF membranes fibers are assembled in one bundle in a protective PVC housing helping to eliminate the need for costly pressure vessels.

The APC-640FL Ultrafiltration membrane element has the following characteristics

• feed connection is 1"
• membrane area is 13 m2 (18600 in2)
• typical permeate flow is 1.3 m3/hr (5.73 gpm)
