POREX® Tubular Membrane Filter Module™

POREX® TMF 1.05 - Tubular Membrane Filter Modules

Optimal high solids seperation at high flux rates

POREX TMF cross-flow tubular membrane modules contain Porex’s unique, structural membrane tubes. The superior strength of the membrane/substrate composite allows higher operating and backwash pressures for superior solids removal efficiency, higher flux and reduced system footprint. The structural composite membrane features PVDF membrane bonded to PVDF substrate or anchored to PE substrate.

 10 Tubular Membrane Filter Modules

TMF Series Features:
  • Consistent, reliable solid/liquid separations and long service life
  • Unique support with PVDF membrane offers high performance tubular membrane with superior operating characteristics
  • Sintered PVDF substrate with PVDF membrane offers high temperature and improved chemical compatibility (pH range of 0–14)
  • PVDF/PVDF composite option offers increased abrasion resistance and enhanced membrane durability
  • Three distinct membrane pore sizes available on two different substrate options
  • Uniform, thermally-bonded omni-directional substrate pore structure provides an optimized support structure for tubular membranes and enhanced membrane durability
  • Now available in multiple tube quantities and diameters for increased surface area and flux
 Tubular Membrane

Chemical Resistance:

POREX TMF modules are resistant to a broad spectrum of corrosive chemicals and reagents as well as pH ranges of 0 to 14. Typically, pilot feasibility tests are needed to determine the actual TMF module performance under real operating conditions.
