Description

The 2,500 L/h Automatic Ultrafiltration System is a high-capacity membrane filtration system designed for commercial, agricultural and industrial water-treatment applications where fine filtration and automated membrane cleaning are required.

The system uses hollow-fibre ultrafiltration (UF) membrane technology to separate suspended and colloidal contaminants from water. Pressure forces the feed water through the semi-permeable membrane, allowing water and many smaller dissolved substances to pass through while retaining larger particles and microorganisms.

The system provides a nominal production capacity of up to 2,500 litres per hour, subject to feed-water quality, temperature, pressure, membrane condition, pre-treatment and other operating conditions.

The automatic configuration is designed to provide automatic filtration, backwash and rinse functions, reducing the need for routine manual valve operation and helping maintain consistent membrane performance.

Ultrafiltration can be used as part of a complete water-treatment plant or as a pre-treatment stage for reverse osmosis. By reducing suspended solids, turbidity and colloidal loading before RO, UF can help reduce the fouling burden placed on downstream RO membranes.

Important: Pre-treatment required

We recommend suitable pre-treatment before the ultrafiltration system, as it is vital for maintaining optimal membrane performance and service life. Operators should analyse raw water and appropriately treat it before it enters the UF membranes. Depending on the source-water quality, pre-treatment may include sediment filtration, multimedia or glass filtration, activated carbon, iron and manganese removal, softening, or other treatment stages. Proper pre-treatment helps reduce membrane fouling, scaling, and contamination and can significantly improve membrane performance and service life.
