DuPont FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR100 Element 

Highly Durable, Contaminant Resistant, Biofouling Resistant, Brackish Water RO Element

Description

The FilmTec™ Fortilife™ product family offers solutions for industrial-users to improve water efficiency by incorporating membrane and element design innovations that enable systems to clean-less, recover-more, and waste-less. 

The FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR100 Element is an advanced element design for treating and recycling highly biofouling prone waters, such as wastewater. It utilizes an ultra-low pressure drop element design and a durable, fouling resistant, and cleanable membrane chemistry that provides outstanding solute rejection over a long element lifetime. These benefits are available with either standard (CR100) or iLEC™ (CR100i) end cap designs.

 Advantages:

• Up to 10% less energy consumption at the same water productivity. 

• Up to 50% reduction in the number of cleanings. 

• Durable membrane with a cleaning tolerance over a wide pH range (pH 1-13) for consistent, long-lasting lifetime.
