BEV UF

Summary

Product Identification

The TurboClean® Beverage 10K Ultrafiltration Elements, specifically the TurboClean® Bev 8040-UF model, are designed to produce high-quality water for soft drinks, energy drinks, and bottled water. These elements feature a patented TurboClean hard shell, which provides a safe and sanitary operating system by eliminating stagnant areas where bacterial growth can occur with traditional brine seals. They offer energy savings, effective cleaning and sanitizing, and enhanced performance due to 60% less bypass flow compared to net-wrapped elements.

Important Information

• Start-up: MANN+HUMMEL Water & Fluid Solutions recommends flushing elements for 30 minutes at low pressure and discarding the permeate during the flush prior to operation. Consult the Element Start-Up Guide – System Start-Up (TSG-O-005) for detailed procedures.
• Cleaning: TurboClean® membrane elements require periodic cleaning to maintain proper operation and prevent membrane damage. Refer to the Membrane Cleaning Guide – Water Application Elements (TSG-C-001).
• Storage: Proper storage of TurboClean membrane elements is essential for ensuring correct operation and preventing damage. Refer to Element Storage Guides (TSG-O-009 & TSG-O-010).
