Summary
Product identification
TurboClean® Beverage Thin-Film Composite RO Elements are designed to deliver high purity, low TDS water for applications such as soft drinks, energy drinks, and bottled water.
Key features:
- Patented TurboClean hard shell for a safe and sanitary operating system, eliminating stagnant areas found with brine seals of fiberglassed membrane elements.
- 60% less bypass flow than net-wrapped elements, contributing to energy savings, effective cleaning/sanitizing, and enhanced performance.
- Available in several membrane chemistries: standard high rejection ACM2 RO, low-fouling RO-X20, and low-energy RO-LE.
Membrane Characteristics
| Membrane Type | Stabilized Salt Rejection (%) | Minimum Salt Rejection (%) |
|---|---|---|
| ACM2 High Rejection RO | 99.5 | 99.0 |
| X-20® Low Fouling RO | 99.5 | 99.0 |
| RO-LE Low Energy RO | 98.5 | 98.0 |

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. Refer to the Element Start-Up Guide – System Start-Up (TSG-O-005) for detailed procedures.
- Cleaning: Periodic cleaning is necessary to ensure proper operation and prevent membrane damage. Consult the Membrane Cleaning Guide – Water Application Elements (TSG-C-001).
- Storage: Proper storage is essential to ensure proper operation and prevent membrane damage. Refer to Element Storage Guides (TSG-O-009 & TSG-O-010).
- Regulatory: All models listed on this sheet use FDA (CFR Title 21) compliant materials.
