Product Performance and Characteristics

---

Water treatment series industrial nanofiltration (NF) is an aromatic polyamide composite membrane element developed by OVAY Technology for selective desalination, which has a high removal rate for divalent and above ions, organism, viruses, etc., and can partially retain monovalent ions such as sodium and potassium. Nanofiltration membrane has no chemical reaction, no heating, no destruction of biological activity in the separation process, with the advantages of low pressure and energy saving, which has been widely used in municipal water supply and water quality softening industries.

General Information

---

Keep elements moist at all times after initial wetting
Membrane elements must be immersed in a preservative solution to inhibit biological growth
during a long-term outage. Rinse out the preservative before reuse.
Maximum pressure drop across an entire pressure vessel (housing) is 15 ps（i 0.1 Mpa）
Avoid static permeate-side back pressure at all times

The Limited Warranty will be null and void if operating limits and guidelines given in this Product Information Bulletin are not strictly followed and the customer is fully responsible for the effects of chemicals that are incompatible with the elements.
