DK series

Engineering summary from PDF text extraction for DK series. Verify every value with the OEM datasheet.

Summary

Product identification

The DK Series consists of Industrial High Rejection Nanofiltration Elements. These are proprietary thin-film nanofiltration (NF) membrane elements from the D-Series family.

  • Membrane: D-Series, Thin-film membrane (TFM)
  • Molecular Weight Cut-off: Approximately 150-300 Dalton for uncharged organic molecules.

Product water

DK Series elements are designed for applications such as dye removal/concentration, sodium chloride diafiltration, and metals recovery.

  • Divalent and multivalent anions are preferentially rejected by the membrane.
  • Monovalent ion rejection is dependent upon feed concentration and composition. Monovalent ions pass through the membrane, which allows NF systems to operate at lower feed pressures than reverse osmosis (RO) systems due to reduced osmotic pressure contribution.
  • Minimum MgSO₄ Rejection: 98% (average after 24 hours operation).
    • Testing Conditions: 2,000 ppm MgSO₄ solution at 110 psi (760 kPa) operating pressure, 77 °F (25°C), 15 % recovery. Individual flow rate may vary ±25%.

Operating limits

  • Typical Operating Flux: 5 - 20 GFD (8 – 34 LMH)
  • Maximum Operating Pressure:
    • 600 psi (4,137 kPa) if T < 95°F (35°C)
    • 435 psi (3,000 kPa) if T > 95°F (35°C)
  • Maximum Temperature:
    • Continuous operation: 122°F (50°C)
    • Clean-In-Place (CIP): 122°F (50°C)
  • pH Range:
    • Continuous operation: 3 – 9
    • Clean-In-Place (CIP): 2 – 11
  • Maximum Pressure Drop:
    • Over an element: 15 psi (103 kPa)
    • Per housing: 60 psi (414 kPa)
  • Chlorine Tolerance: 500 ppm hours, dechlorination recommended

Feed water

  • NTU: < 1
  • SDI₁₅: < 5
