UP 005 XT

Summary

Product Identification

The TurboClean® Food & Dairy UP005 XT Series elements feature a Polyethersulfone (PES) membrane with a nominal Molecular Weight Cut-Off (M.W.C.O.) of 5,000 Da. The membrane is cast on a polypropylene support material designed for cleaning at high temperature and high pH conditions.

Key features include:

• Patented sanitary hard-shell design with approximately 60% less bypass flow compared to other sanitary elements, leading to energy savings and/or higher flux rates.
• Higher cross-flow velocity for effective membrane cleaning.
• Stronger construction than net-wrapped sanitary elements, allowing them to withstand higher pressure drops.
• Tightest Outer Diameter (OD) tolerance and optimal circularity for easy loading and unloading.

Design Information

All models on this sheet feature a TurboClean sanitary outer wrap and diamond-shaped feed spacers.
