Summary

Product Identification

The 3M™ Liqui-Cel™ MM-1.7x10 Series Membrane Contactor is recommended for carbonation, nitrogenation, and other gasification applications, and can also be used for degassing applications.

Membrane Characteristics

  • Membrane Type: X40 Fiber

  • Drain Port: Straight tube
  • Additional End Cap Options: 20° rotation of end cap A or 180° rotation of end cap B.
  • Liquid Flow Guidelines: <2000 ml/min

Performance Information

Performance curves for dissolved oxygen removal, pressure drop, and dissolved CO₂ concentration at various water flow rates are available in the official PDF. These curves illustrate nominal values for X40 membrane with water on the lumen side, under specific test conditions (e.g., O₂ removal with vacuum 50 torr at 20°C; carbonation with water at 5°C containing 0 g/L CO₂ at inlet). See the official PDF for exact tabulated values and graphs.

Regulatory

  • Complies with the limits as set by RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU Annex II; recasting 2002/95/EC.
  • CFR Title 21 compliant.
  • FDA compliant for wetted parts only at ambient temperatures.
