EXF Series 10 x 28

Summary

Product identification

• Product Name: 3M™ Liqui-Cel™ EXF-10x28 Industrial Series Membrane Contactor
• Cartridge Configuration: Industrial Use Extra-Flow with Center Baffle
• Overall Dimensions (nominal):
  • Length: 1186 mm (46.7 in)
  • Diameter: 279 mm (11.0 in)
• Weight (approximate):
  • Dry: 33 kg (73 lbs)
  • Water-filled (shellside): 57 kg (125 lbs)
  • Cartridge only – dry: 10 kg (23 lbs)
• Priming Volume (approximate):
  • Shellside: 26.1 L (6.9 gal)
  • Lumenside: 10.6 L (2.8 gal)

Operating limits

• Liquid Flow Guidelines: 10 – 48 m³/hr (44 – 210 gpm)
• Maximum Shellside LIQUID Working Temperature/Pressure: 5-50°C, 4.1 barg (41-122°F, 60 psig)
  • If no vacuum is used, 1.0 barg (15 psig) can be added to pressures above.
• Maximum Applied Gas Pressure: 4.1 barg at 25°C (60 psig at 77°F)
  • Note: Maximum applied gas pressure is for integrity testing at ambient temperatures. Normal operating pressures are typically lower.
• Pressure Note: Liquid pressure should always exceed gas pressure.
• Performance Curves: Graphs are provided for Pressure Drop vs. Water Flow Rate, Free CO₂ Removal % vs. Water Flow Rate, and % Dissolved Oxygen Removal vs. Water Flow Rate. Curves represent nominal values, generated using water at 20°C. Characteristics may change under different operating conditions. See the official PDF for exact tabulated values and detailed test conditions.
