FAQs on 8040 Industrial RO Membrane
What is an SP-BW8040 brackish water membrane used for?
The SP-BW8040 is a SpiroPure brackish water reverse osmosis membrane measuring 8" x 40", built for treating low salt content surface water, groundwater, tap water, and municipal water sources in higher-volume industrial and commercial applications.
What is the price of an SP-BW8040 brackish water membrane?
The SpiroPure SP-BW8040 is priced around for genuine value against brand-name 8040 brackish water elements like the Dupont Filmtec BW30-400 without compromising the 99.5% salt rejection performance. See this page for current 8040 RO membrane pricing.
What are the specifications of the SpiroPure SP-BW8040 membrane?
The SpiroPure SP-BW8040 delivers 10,500 GPD (±15%) average permeate at 225 PSI, with 99.5% stabilized salt rejection and a 15% fresh water recovery rate. It's rated for feedwater up to 10,000 ppm NaCl maximum, tested in the lab against 2,000 ppm feedwater NaCl to demonstrate performance.
Is the BW 8040 membrane suitable for all industrial RO systems?
The BW 8040 membrane suits industrial systems treating brackish water up to 10,000 ppm NaCl at standard operating pressures. It's not suitable for seawater or extremely high-TDS sources, which require a seawater desalination membrane rated for higher salinity and system pressure.
What is the difference between a 4040 and 8040 RO membrane?
An 8040 membrane measures 8" x 40" versus a 4040's 4" x 40", giving roughly four times the membrane surface area. The SP-BW8040 produces 10,500 GPD compared to the SP-BW4040's 2,400 GPD at the same operating pressure and feedwater conditions.
