SFD-2660 Industrial Grade UF Module DupPont DOW Equivalent

Product Introduction

The SFD-2660 Industrial Grade Ultrafiltration (UF) Module is a premium solution for advanced water treatment, designed to deliver the same performance and configuration as the renowned DUPONT DOW SFD-2660 UF module. Developed with cutting-edge hollow fiber membrane technology, this module is engineered for robust, long-term operation in both municipal and industrial water treatment systems.

With a focus on efficiency, compatibility, and reliability, the SFD-2660 module features high-quality PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) hollow fibers, offering exceptional mechanical strength, high chemical resistance, and superior filtration precision. It is perfectly suited for retrofit applications and OEM system integration, making it a cost-effective alternative for projects seeking quality equivalent to the DOW/DUPONT standard.

Working Principle

Ultrafiltration is a membrane-based separation process that removes contaminants such as suspended solids, bacteria, viruses, colloids, and macromolecules from water. The SFD-2660 UF module operates on a “dead-end” or “outside-in” flow mechanism, which ensures a stable and consistent output of clean water while reducing membrane fouling.

Process Flow:

1.    Feed Water Entry: Untreated or pre-treated water enters the outer shell of the module.

2.    Membrane Separation: Water flows from the outside of the hollow fibers to the inside (lumen), with the membrane acting as a selective barrier.

3.    Contaminant Rejection: Particles larger than the 0.03 μm pore size are retained on the membrane surface.

4.    Permeate Collection: Purified water (permeate) exits from the inner lumen of the fibers.

5.    Cleaning Cycles: Backwash and chemical cleaning cycles are triggered periodically to maintain high performance and extend module life.

This filtration method minimizes energy usage and maximizes membrane utilization with minimal operating pressure.
