Summary

Product identification

The TurboClean® Food & Dairy UP020 XT Series features elements with a membrane cast on a polypropylene support material, capable of cleaning at high temperatures and high pH conditions. TurboClean technology incorporates a patented sanitary hard-shell design, which delivers better system performance with about 60% less bypass flow compared to other sanitary elements. This results in energy savings and/or higher flux rates. These elements are stronger than net-wrapped sanitary elements, able to withstand higher pressure drops, and designed for easier loading and unloading due to tight outer diameter (OD) tolerance and optimal circularity.

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: Elements require periodic cleaning to ensure proper operation and prevent membrane damage. Refer to the Membrane Cleaning Guide – Food & Dairy: XT Elements (TSG-C-007).
  • Storage: Elements must be stored appropriately to ensure proper operation and prevent membrane damage. Refer to Element Storage Guides (TSG-O-009 & TSG-O-010).
