AltaFilter™ Ultrafiltration Systems
Small Size, Big Value

Equipment Overview :
 

The AltaFilter utilizes robust and chemically resistant polysuflone hollow fibers housed in a uniquely configured, pressurized module. With the most filtration surface area per module in the marketplace, the AltaFilter provides a compact, economical solution for effective particulate removal. More filtration area per module allows the membrane system to be designed and operated at lower flux rates, extending membrane life. The 0.01 micron ultrafiltration membrane doesn't’t require coagulant addition for effective filtration. Since the system uses less chemicals and you don’t have to run it as hard, it requires less cleaning.

The AltaFilter™ is supplied as a pre-engineered systems with integrated piping, valves and controls and has been successfully applied in potable water treatment, municipal wastewater filtration and industrial applications. Custom engineered systems to meet unique needs are also available.
