XN 45 NF

Summary

Product Identification

The TurboClean® Food & Dairy XN45 NF Series elements feature a patented sanitary hard-shell design. They offer approximately 60% less bypass flow than other sanitary elements, leading to energy savings, higher flux rates, and more effective membrane cleaning. These elements are stronger than net-wrapped sanitary elements, capable of withstanding higher pressure drops, and designed for easy loading and unloading due to tight OD tolerance and optimal circularity.

The membrane type is Polypiperazine.

Membrane Characteristics

• Typical NaCl rejection: 20%
• Nominal M.W.C.O.: 300 – 500 Da
• Stabilized MgSO₄ Rejection: 96.0%

Operating Limits

• Maximum Operating Pressure: 55 bar (800 psi)
• Maximum Operating Temperature: 50°C (122°F)
• Cleaning pH Range: 1.0 – 12.0
• Chlorine Tolerance: < 0.1 ppm
• Maximum Pressure Drop: 1.4 bar (20 psi) per element; 6 bar (80 psi) per housing
• Hydrogen Peroxide Usage Limit: 20 ppm continuous; 1,000 ppm for short-term cleaning (at 25°C (77°F) max for short-term)

Mechanical / Hydraulic

The elements feature a TurboClean sanitary outer wrap. Models ending in "P" have parallel feed spacers; all other models have diamond shaped feed spacers.
