Description Spec Sheet / Manual Technical Specifications
 
Hydranautics ESPA-1 Low Energy RO Membrane: 8" x 40"

(Suggested alternative: Filmtec XFRLE-400-34i)

ESPA® (Energy Saving Polyamide) elements achieve high flux/lower pressure without compromising standards for high rejection. Since its introduction in the late 1990s, the ESPA® membrane has gained wide acceptance in the water treatment industry due to the significant operational cost savings associated with their use.

Advantages
  • Lower pressure for lower CAPEX/OPEX

Applications

  • Municipal potable and wastewater plants
  • Bottling operations
  • Light industrial

Performance
  • Permeate Flow: 12,000 gpd (45.4m3/d)
  • Salt Rejection: 99.4%(99.2% minimum)
