RCP010-40EPP High-Flux Water Treatment Filter – 40 GPM Precision Purification for Industrial Applications

RCP010-40EPP Water Treatment System

Product Introduction

The RCP010-40EPP is an advanced, high-capacity water treatment unit engineered with premium EPP (Enhanced Polypropylene) filter media, targeting commercial and industrial water purification demands. This system integrates precision filtration technology with a robust, modular structure, designed to efficiently remove suspended solids, colloidal particles, organic contaminants, and partial dissolved salts from feed water. It features an automated pressure monitoring system and easy-to-access filter chambers, enabling hassle-free installation, operation, and maintenance. Suitable for both standalone use and integration into multi-stage water treatment lines, the RCP010-40EPP delivers consistent, high-quality treated water while optimizing energy consumption and operational costs.

Filtration Precision

The RCP010-40EPP achieves a 0.2-micron filtration precision, which is well-suited for capturing fine suspended particles, bacteria, algae, and colloidal substances that may cause equipment scaling or water quality deterioration. This level of precision ensures that treated water meets strict industry standards for clarity and purity, making it ideal for applications where medium-to-high water purity is required without the need for ultra-filtration or reverse osmosis processes.

Flux

Under standard operating conditions (25°C inlet temperature, 35 psi inlet pressure, and feed water turbidity <8 NTU), the RCP010-40EPP boasts a nominal flux rate of 40 gallons per minute (GPM). This high flux capacity allows the system to handle large water volume demands efficiently, making it a perfect choice for industrial cooling towers, food and beverage processing plants, and commercial water supply systems. The flux remains stable even with minor fluctuations in feed water parameters, thanks to the system’s optimized flow channel design and high-porosity EPP media.

Salt Rejection Rate

Equipped with a selective EPP composite membrane, the RCP010-40EPP achieves a 95% salt rejection rate for monovalent salts (e.g., sodium chloride) and 97% for divalent salts (e.g., calcium carbonate, magnesium sulfate). This performance effectively reduces total dissolved solids (TDS) in treated water, making it suitable for boiler feed water pre-treatment, textile dyeing water preparation, and rinsing processes in electronic component manufacturing.

Pressure Drop

The pressure drop across the RCP010-40EPP system is controlled at a low range of 3–4 psi under nominal flux conditions. This minimal pressure loss is attributed to the high permeability of EPP filter media and the streamlined internal flow path, which minimizes resistance to water flow. A low pressure drop not only cuts down on pumping energy costs but also prevents excessive pressure buildup, thus extending the service life of membrane elements and other key components.

Molecular Weight Cutoff (MWCO)

The molecular weight cutoff of the RCP010-40EPP is rated at 15,000 Daltons. This means the system can effectively retain organic macromolecules with a molecular weight of 15,000 Daltons or higher, such as humic acids, industrial dyes, and protein residues, while allowing water molecules and small inorganic ions to pass through. This precise MWCO makes the system ideal for wastewater treatment in printing and dyeing industries, as well as pre-treatment for reverse osmosis (RO) systems to prevent membrane fouling.

Membrane Thickness

The filtration membrane of the RCP010-40EPP has a total thickness of 180 microns, composed of a 140-micron porous EPP support layer and a 40-micron dense selective layer. The thick support layer provides excellent mechanical strength and pressure resistance, preventing membrane deformation under high operating pressure. The dense selective layer is responsible for the system’s high filtration precision and salt rejection performance, ensuring efficient contaminant removal without compromising water permeability.

Replacement Cycle

The recommended replacement cycle for the EPP filter elements of the RCP010-40EPP is 8–10 months under normal operating conditions (feed water turbidity <5 NTU, regular backwashing every 72 hours). For feed water with high turbidity (>10 NTU), the replacement cycle may be shortened to 5–6 months to maintain optimal filtration efficiency. Regular replacement of filter elements is critical to prevent contaminant accumulation, membrane clogging, and a decline in treated water quality.
