Description
The system uses a high-pressure piston-recirculation pump to circulate product through the filter module of choice.
The variable speed triplepiston design combined with high-pressure flexibles minimises pressurepulsation.
The operator can use their own feed vessel or this can be specified (FT18-20 option). The speed of the recirculation pump can
be adjusted to suit the particular filtration module and the product.A level sensor mounted on the pump inlet protects the pump from running dry.
The retentate back-pressure valve enables pressures up to 40 bar to be achieved. Accidental system over-pressure is avoided by a
downstream of the recirculation pump.
There is a permeate back-pressure valve so that accurate transmembrane pressures (TMP) can be set. Pressure sensors are sited
on the retentate side on the inlet and outlet of the filter module, as well as on the permeate side. Any temperature gain in the retentate through
recirculation at high pressure is removed using a 316 stainless steel shell and tube heat exchanger, which has corrugated tubes for improved
heat transfer.
The transmembrane pressure can be finely controlled with independent back pressure valves. This reduces the fouling on the membrane when
operating at higher pressures, extending the lifetime of the membrane.
