Elements & Pressure Vessels

Spiral Wound Elements

SolSep produces spiral wound elements but also other type of membrane modules that are stable in organic solvents. We have specialized on spiral wound elements for ultrafiltration and nanofiltration. These have been tested in solvents like methanol, ethanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, hexane, toluene and chlorobenzene. Also other alcohols, ketones, esters may be used, as well as solvents like DMF, DMSO and THF.

The spiral wounds elements in the table below have sizes conform industrial standards. For special applications, e.g. high viscosity or high temperature, elements can be customized, but they will still fit into a regular pressure vessel.

Element Filtration area (m2)* Size (diameter x length)
SR-1 1 - 1.8 60 mm x 505 mm
2.5" x 20"
SR-2 1.5 - 3 60 mm x 1010 mm
2.5" x 40"
SR-5 5 - 8 102 mm x 1010 mm
4" x 40"
SR-20 15 - 20 195 mm x 1010 mm
8" x 40"
*Depends on spacer thickness
Special custom demand constructions can be made on request.
