The VinoCon family of proprietary thin-film reverse osmosis membrane elements is characterized by high sodium chloride rejection. These A-Series elements are selected when small size organics (<150D) need to permeate through the membrane while retaining salts and larger organics.
The VinoCon RO7 Elements provide high flux rates at operating pressures up to 1,000 psi (6,895 kPa). This element is designed to tolerate periodic hot-water sanitation while still maintaining element integrity. They are typically used for concentrating grape must in wineries requiring stringent sanitary procedures. Other applications may include grape juice concentration and wine adjustment.
The VinoCon RO7 Elements feature a Durasan* Cage patented outer wrap, standard feed spacers and polysulfone parts.
