OSMO BEV UF Series
Beverage and Bottled Water Production
The OSMO BEV UF membrane element is engineered to provide beverage plants with consistent,
high quality water for production of carbonated soft
drinks, juices, and sport drinks. The OSMO BEV UF
element creates an absolute barrier to cryptosporidium and giardia, and rejects color and organics
(naturally occurring tannins, humics, fulvics, etc.)
The OSMO BEV UF element offers true multiple barrier security with the lowest energy consumption. It
has a nominal MWCO of 6,000Da.
Features include a Full-Fit* design that eliminates
the stagnant zone associated with industrial fiberglass wrapped elements and their brine seals,
which can act as a site for bacterial growth. The
OSMO BEV UF element forms a flush-fit with the inner diameter of the membrane element housing,
creating a self-cleaning effect. This design also offers less pressure resistance than an industrial fiberglass wrapped element, resulting in lower brake
horsepower and substantial energy savings.
The OSMO BEV UF membrane is following a 100%
Wet Test Quality Assurance.
