40" Axeon HF5 4040 Ultra-low pressure Reverse Osmosis membrane

The Axeon HF5 4040 is an ultra-low-pressure, high-flow reverse osmosis (RO) membrane used for commercial water purification systems. Its low operating pressure makes it more energy-efficient than standard RO membranes. The "4040" designation refers to its dimensions: 4 inches in diameter and 40 inches long. 

Key specifications

Dimensions: 4 inches in diameter by 40 inches in length, fitting into standard 4-inch membrane housings.

Permeate flow rate: Up to 2,500 gallons per day (GPD), or 9,450 liters per day (LPD).

Operating pressure: Designed for optimal performance at a low pressure of 80 psi (5.5 bar), significantly lower than standard membranes.

Salt rejection: Provides a nominal salt rejection of 98.5%.

Membrane material: Thin-film composite polyamide.

Design: Features a protective tape-wound exterior for durability.

Applications: Ideal for industrial water treatment, commercial systems like restaurants, and cold water environments, such as those found in the window cleaning industry.

Efficiency: It is particularly effective at maintaining high production rates in low water temperature conditions, which typically hinder the performance of other RO membranes. 

Advantages

Low energy consumption: The low operating pressure of 80 psi leads to reduced energy costs for the water treatment system.

High performance: Delivers consistent, high-quality results with excellent flow rates and salt rejection.

Cost-effective: Allows for energy savings without sacrificing water output, potentially eliminating the need for a pressure-boosting pump in some systems.

Enhanced cold water operation: Optimized to maintain effectiveness in cold water, where other membranes typically lose efficiency.

Long shelf life: The membranes are shipped dry, which allows for indefinite storage and easier handling.
