10-Tube Modules

 

POREX ® TMF 10 Tube Modules 

New and Replacement Filters for Microfiltration Systems

Structural membrane tubes from POREX are the focus of our industry leading tubular membrane modules. Dependable membrane/substrate tubes utilize high flow rate membranes that can be used in new systems or as replacement filters in Memtek® microfiltration systems. The supreme strength of the high flow rate membrane generates a smaller system footprint while increasing filtration efficiency. Structural composite membranes are composed of PVDF membrane that are 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.
