(i)  W1  :  380 to 680 mm 
(ii)  W2  :  430 to 730 mm 
(iii)  W3  :  W3 should be as short as possible (normally about 400 mm) within the range 

allowing piping and maintenance work.   

(iv)  L1  :  L1, the distance between the top of the element and the liquid level of the tank, 

should be 500 mm or over at any time of the operation.   

 

Refer to the “Dimensions” on the  Table III-3a/b  for layout design,  not “Overall 
dimensions”.

 

Contact Toray in the event the recommended layout design is not possible when 
installing the membrane modules in an existing aeration tank. 

Contact Toray in the case the existing tank floor is not level, If the existing tank floor is 
not level, it is recommended that stands be installed as shown in Fig.IV-6.

  (2) Layout of Modules Installed with Other Aeration Equipment   
In the case that the membrane modules are to be installed  in a tank with other 
oxygen-supplying aeration equipment or in an  existing tank where there is already other 
oxygen-supplying aeration equipment, take the following precautions in addition to what is 
mentioned in the above section.   
The membrane modules should be kept at least twice the W3 dimension noted in Fig. IV-7 
from any other oxygen-supplying equipment.
