Scinor SMT600-P80 – Pressurized Ultrafiltration Module

Overview:

High-Performance Ultrafiltration for Water & Wastewater

The Scinor SMT600-P80 is part of Scinor’s pressurized ultrafiltration product family, engineered to meet the rigorous demands of water treatment plants, industrial purification systems, and desalination pretreatment applications. This module leverages high-permeability PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) hollow fiber membranes that offer tight pore size distribution (typically ~0.1 µm), enabling effective removal of suspended solids, colloids, bacteria, and other contaminants. 

Using Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIPS) technology, Scinor’s membranes provide superior mechanical strength, chemical tolerance, and long operational life compared with traditional membrane types, resulting in stable performance and lower total cost of ownership. The SMT600-P80’s design is suitable for both dead-end and cross-flow filtration modes, with cleaning strategies such as backwash, maintenance clean, and clean-in-place (CIP) ensuring long-term reliability. 

Key Features & Advantages

• TIPS PVDF Hollow Fiber Membranes: High permeability, excellent mechanical strength, and chemical tolerance for reliable filtration performance. 

• 0.1 µm Nominal Pore Size: Effective removal of suspended solids, bacteria, and colloidal matter for improved water quality. 

• Large Effective Area: Approximately 80 m² of membrane area per module, supporting high throughput and efficient filtration. 

• Robust Construction: U-PVC/ABS housing with epoxy potting ensures durability and compatibility with industrial process conditions. 

• Low Operating & Maintenance Costs: High flux rates with low energy and chemical consumption reduce ongoing costs. 

• Small Footprint: High fiber packing density delivers large membrane area with compact module size, suitable for space-constrained installations. 

• Retrofit Capability: Designed to retrofit major membrane vendor modules, simplifying upgrades or replacements. 

Typical Applications

The SMT600-P80 Pressurized Ultrafiltration Module is suited for a wide range of applications, including:

• Municipal potable water treatment — effective pre-treatment and filtration for safe drinking water supply. 

• Wastewater reclamation and reuse — enhancing effluent quality prior to further treatment or discharge. 

• Desalination pre-treatment — removing particulates and contaminants before reverse osmosis. 

• Industrial process water purification — high-quality filtration for manufacturing and processing systems. 

• Retrofit membrane replacements — upgrade existing filtration systems with improved performance and longevity. 

FAQ

What is a pressurized ultrafiltration module?

A pressurized ultrafiltration module is a membrane filter unit that uses pressure to drive water through a semi-permeable membrane, separating contaminants and suspended solids while producing high-quality filtrate. 

What makes Scinor’s PVDF membranes special?

Scinor uses Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIPS) technology to fabricate PVDF hollow fiber membranes, resulting in high permeability, strong mechanical properties, and exceptional chemical resistance. 

Can SMT600-P80 operate with existing filtration systems?

Yes — SMT600 modules are designed to retrofit and replace major competitors’ membrane elements without extensive system changes, offering flexibility and cost savings. 

How often does the module need cleaning?

Cleaning frequency depends on feed water quality and operating conditions; common maintenance includes periodic backwashing, maintenance cleaning, and CIP for sustained performance.
