  • Page 4: Introduction

    The HP4750 Stirred Cell is a high-pressure, chemically resistant stirred cell that performs a wide variety of membrane separations. With a maximum pressure rating of 1000 psig (69 bar), the HP4750 Stirred Cell is ideally suited for reverse osmosis (RO) filtration, nanofiltration (NF), ultrafiltration (UF), and microfiltration (MF) separations. Stainless steel (316L) construction and chemically resistant components make the HP4750 Stirred Cell an ideal choice to filter aqueous and non-aqueous solutions.
