SANI Membranes laboratory pump. Turn on the Vibro-Lab280 Drive (4) as soon as both sides of the Lab280 Cartridge is filled with feed solution. Adjust the speed of the Peristaltic Feed Pump (2) until the desired permeate flow rate is reached. The pressure may initially be too low to observe.
Tip: The recommended retentate flow rate is 8-16 L/h per Lab280 Cartridge which corresponds to around 160-180 RPM on the standard SANI Membranes laboratory pump. Start the Vibro-Lab280 Drive (4) as soon as the Lab280 Cartridge is filled with feed solution. Adjust the Retentate valve (6) until the desired retentate pressure (7) is reached.
A pressure of 1.5 to 2 bar often gives the best long-time results. Make sure that the system pressure does not exceed the rated pressure – a safety valve may be required. SANI Membranes A/S www.sanimembranes.com Ryttermarken 8 | DK-3520 Farum | Denmark...
