Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between hollow fiber and flat sheet module versions?
A: Hollow fiber modules provide higher surface area in compact form, ideal for flux testing. Flat sheet modules enable visual observation of membrane surface and easier cleaning. Choose based on your research objectives.

Q: Can the skid accommodate both module types simultaneously?
A: Standard configuration operates one module at a time. Dual-module configurations for comparative testing are available as custom options.

Q: What membrane materials can be tested?
A: The system is compatible with all common UF membrane polymers (PES, PVDF, PS, etc.) and various casting solvents. Confirm specific material compatibility with our technical team.

Q: Is the system suitable for long-term fouling studies?
A: Yes. The robust design and monitoring capabilities make this ideal for extended fouling and cleaning protocol studies. We provide guidance on experimental design.
