Summary
Product identification
The TRISEP® DS Food & Dairy MV020 Series consists of TRISEP® sanitary membrane elements designed for food and dairy applications. These elements utilize NADIR® MV020 polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) microfiltration membranes with a nominal pore size of 0.20 µm.
The elements are built with FDA compliant materials, comply with European food regulations (EU 10/2011 and EC 1935/2004), and meet USDA standards, specifically USDA 3A sanitary standard 45-03. They also hold Halal and Kosher certifications.
All models detailed on this sheet feature a netting outer wrap and diamond-shaped feed spacers.

Important Information
- Start-up: It is recommended to flush elements for 30 minutes at low pressure and discard permeate during the flush prior to operation.
- Cleaning: TRISEP® membrane elements require periodic cleaning to maintain proper operation and prevent membrane damage.
- Storage: Elements must be stored appropriately to ensure proper operation and prevent damage.
