Product Introduction
The CPEO-1060 UF Module is a premium ultrafiltration membrane system designed to be fully compatible with Canpure’s CPEO-1060 model. As an ideal substitute, this equivalent module delivers consistent and efficient water treatment performance across a range of municipal and industrial applications.
Built with advanced polyethersulfone (PES) hollow fiber membranes, this module provides precise filtration down to 0.03 microns, effectively removing bacteria, viruses, suspended solids, and colloidal particles. Whether you're upgrading an existing UF system or installing a new one, the CPEO-1060 UF Module offers exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and cost-effective operation.
The module operates on the outside-in filtration principle and is well-suited for applications that demand stable output quality and low maintenance, such as drinking water production, wastewater reclamation, and industrial water treatment.

Working Principle
The CPEO-1060 UF Module utilizes the pressure-driven ultrafiltration process. Its hollow fiber membrane structure filters contaminants from feedwater as it passes from the outer fiber surface to the lumen (inside of the fiber).
The process involves:
1. Feedwater Entry: Water enters the module and flows outside the hollow fibers.
2. Filtration by Size Exclusion: Under slight pressure, clean water and small dissolved molecules pass through the membrane walls, while particulates, bacteria, and larger organics are retained.
3. Permeate Collection: The purified water, or permeate, is collected inside the fiber lumens and directed to the outlet.
4. Cleaning: Periodic air scouring, backflushing, and chemical cleaning restore membrane performance and extend module life.
This method ensures high filtration efficiency with minimal fouling and lower energy consumption compared to conventional filtration technologies.
