FilmTec™ Wet Seawater Reverse Osmosis 8" Elements

DuPont Water Solutions offers various premium seawater reverse osmosis (RO) elements to reduce the capital and operating costs of seawater RO systems. FilmTec™ elements combine premium membrane performance with automated precision fabrication and maximize system output to exceptional performance.

Wet  FilmTec™ SW30XLE–400 elements offer a great combination of productivity and rejection. It is an excellent choice for two-pass seawater designs and high TDS brackish water applications. Benefits of the wet FilmTec™ SW30XLE–400  elements include:

• High productivity, with active area of 400 ft², helps systems to be designed to deliver low total cost of water by optimizing energy consumption, system productivity and operating flux.
• Can effectively be used in permeate staged seawater desalination systems without impairing the performance of the downstream stage.
• Delivers high performance over the operating lifetime without the use of oxidative post-treatments like many competitive products. This is one reason FilmTec™ Elements are more durable and may be cleaned more effectively over a wider pH range (1 – 13) than other RO elements.
• Automated, precision fabrication with a greater number of shorter membrane leaves reduces the effect of overall fouling and maximizes element efficiency, helping to lower your cost of operation.

Product Category

Wet Seawater Reverse Osmosis 8" FilmTec™ elements can separate salts from water and are designed to reduce capital and operational costs of large desalination systems that produce greater than approximately 10 gpm (2300 L/h) of permeate. With a wide range of membranes available to meet various system design requirements, our RO products combine excellent membrane quality with automated precision fabrication, taking system performance to unprecedented levels.
