Introduction
MANN+HUMMEL Water & Fluid Solutions (WFS) offers a wide variety of capillary modules under the MICRODYN brand.
MICRODYN cross-flow microfiltration (MF) modules are used to separate suspended solids larger than 0.2 micron.
The highly porous polypropylene (PP) membrane is backwashable, allowing for stable and efficient filtration with continuously
high product flux.
The smart construction techniques employed in the module manufacturing allow them to be used in applications that require
highly stable polymer materials, pH stability (0 to 14), and high resistance against abrasive substances.
The advantages of MICRODYN microfiltration modules include:
•
Well-defined flow conditions
•
High packing density
•
Minimized dead zones
•
Extremely abrasion resistant
•
Strong chemical resistance
•
Backwashable
•
Low specific energy consumption
Typical applications where MICRODYN capillary modules are used are food applications like wine and vinegar filtration or
pharmaceutical applications where specific proteins are concentrated.
