ZeeWeed* Pressurized Ultrafiltration
Model ZW1500-600
Description and Use
As a pioneer of membrane technology, GE leverages
decades of research, development, and operational
experience in developing the most advanced pressurized ultrafiltration technology in the market,
ZeeWeed 1500. ZeeWeed systems are proven to
consistently outperform conventional filtration
technology while meeting or exceeding regulatory
requirements, regardless of source water quality.
Typical Applications
Versatile and reliable, the pressurized ZeeWeed
1500 is ideally suited for use in numerous applications including drinking water treatment, tertiary
filtration and RO pre-treatment for brackish water
and seawater. Compared to granular filter media,
ZeeWeed membranes produce superior water quality and are virtually unaffected by variable raw water
quality - all at a cost comparable to conventional
filtration technology.
General Properties
• 0.02 µm nominal pore diameter - for optimal
• PVDF hollow fiber membrane - provides high
• Outside-in filtration - provides uniform flow
removal of particulates, bacteria and viruses
mechanical strength and chemical resistance
distribution and high solids tolerance
Storage and Handling
Modules may be stored in the original factory
packaging for up to 1 year prior to installation.
Modules must be stored between 5°C and 35°C
(41°F to 95°F). Do not expose the membrane module to direct sunlight (UV light).
Safety Precautions
A Material Safety Data Sheet containing information about this product is available on request.
