LFC3-LD-4040

Engineering summary from PDF text extraction for LFC3-LD-4040. Verify every value with the OEM datasheet.

Summary

Product identification

  • Membrane Element: LFC3-LD-4040 (Low Fouling Technology)
  • Type: Low Fouling Spiral Wound
  • Membrane Polymer: Composite Polyamide
  • Membrane Active Area: 80 ft² (7.43 m²)
  • Feed Spacer: 34 mil (0.864 mm) with biostatic agent

Performance

  • Permeate Flow: 2,100 gpd (7.95 m³/d)
  • Salt Rejection: 99.7% (99.5% minimum)

Performance is based on the following test conditions (initial data taken after 30 minutes of operation):

  • 1500 PPM NaCl solution
  • 225 psi (1.55 MPa) Applied Pressure
  • 77 °F (25 °C) Operating Temperature
  • 15% Permeate Recovery
  • 6.5 - 7.0 pH Range

Note: Permeate flow for individual elements may vary +25/-15 percent.

Operating limits

  • Maximum Applied Pressure: 600 psig (4.14 MPa)
  • Maximum Chlorine Concentration: < 0.1 PPM
  • Maximum Operating Temperature: 113 °F (45 °C)
  • pH Range, Continuous (Cleaning): 2-10 (1-12)
  • Maximum Feedwater Turbidity: 1.0 NTU
  • Maximum Feedwater SDI (15 mins): 5.0
  • Maximum Feed Flow: 16 GPM (3.6 m³/h)
  • Minimum Ratio of Concentrate to Permeate Flow for any Element: 5:1
  • Maximum Pressure Drop for Each Element: 15 psi

Note: The limitations shown are for general use. For specific projects, operating at more conservative values may ensure the best performance and longest life of the membrane.
