SW-400 — seawater RO membrane

A seawater RO element with catalog performance stated under seawater-strength salt and boron test conditions. Evaluate the membrane together with the high-pressure system, intake pretreatment and product-water target.

Catalog capacities are selection references. Final output, energy use and water quality depend on the confirmed feed water, operating conditions and supplied configuration.

Configuration & selection

Review seasonal seawater salinity and temperature, boron requirements and the pressure-vessel rating. A membrane salt-rejection figure alone does not demonstrate drinking-water compliance or approve an element as a direct replacement.

These are single-element catalog test values, not a guaranteed system output. Compare flow and rejection only with their stated pressure, feed solution, temperature and recovery. Confirm dimensions, connections and the system projection before replacement.

Specify the operating conditions

  • Feed-water source, salinity, temperature and analysis
  • Required permeate flow, quality and operating hours
  • Existing model, dimensions, connectors and pressure vessel
  • Element quantity, array layout and delivery destination

A matching model format or similar test flow does not establish interchangeability. Confirm mechanical fit and system performance before replacement.

Applications

From selection to installation

Request a proposal with the equipment list, process arrangement, utility requirements, delivery scope and maintenance access. Agree on commissioning responsibilities, consumables and spare parts before placing an order.
