FilmTec™ LC LE PRO-4040 is DuPont’s low-energy brackish water reverse osmosis element for commercial and industrial systems producing up to ~10 GPM of permeate. It is the direct replacement for the discontinued DOW FilmTec LC LE-4040, delivering higher rejection (99.5% stabilized) and industry-leading 94 sq.ft. active area at low operating pressure — reducing pump energy and operating cost.
Typical applications: commercial & industrial water demineralization, municipal drinking water production, and water reuse. Fits standard nominal 4" × 40" pressure vessels.
