DOW FILMTEC™ XLE-440 High Productivity Low-Energy Brackish Water RO Element

The lowest pressure DOW FILMTEC™ RO Element



DOW FILMTEC XLE-440 Elements are ideal for reverse osmosis plant managers and operators dealing with controlled pre-treatment and seeking high-quality permeate water at low operating costs. FilmTec XLE-440 minimizes equipment CAPEX in designs with savings in elements and pumping due to the 440 ft2 active area. XLE-440 also delivers the most effective cleaning performance, robustness and durability due to its widest cleaning pH range (1-13) tolerance and the support of FilmTec technical representatives



DOW FILMTEC Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis 8" Elements can separate salts from water and are produced with an automated fabrication process that ensures precision, consistency, and reliability. They are ideal for use in large-scale industrial and municipal water treatment systems that produce greater than approximately 10 gpm (2300 L/h) of permeate. Our RO membranes build on a tradition of leadership in the thin-film composite membrane industry and meet today's challenges for higher rejection using less energy and resisting foulants in challenging waters.



Dow inclucdes one coupler part number PV-IN811LE (259171) with each element. Each coupler includes two 3-912 EPR o-rings.



DOW FILMTEC XLE-440 is FDA – 21 CFR 177.2550; Food and Drug Administration Compliant.

Good but check screws for looseness, mine had an arm fall off.
Color: Black
A screw fell out and the arm fell off soon after beginning to use them. Aside from that they are fine. Repaired by buying a $10 eyeglass repair kit.

Better than expected!
I initially got these for the look, but they turned out to be pretty solid sunglasses in thr end. They're comfortable, functional and durable, and I'm always getting compliments on them

very large, but otherwise perfect
Color: Black
Was looking for glacier sunglasses, at a reasonable price, and polarized. I found these and bought 4 pairs, one for each family member, for an upcoming trip. Glass look great! They are lightweight, polarized and have the side shields we needed. But, they are huge! All four must be returned. They don't fit any of us. It's a shame...they are perfect, besides the size. But glacier glasses must fit snugly to the face and these are far, far from our skin.

The Best Sunglasses
Color: Black
I was hesitant to purchase these at first. I'm so glad I did, though. They are light-weight, comfortable, and super stylish. I work in the desert, so the side guards are very helpful in keeping the sand and dust out (not entirely, but they help). I will absolutely purchase again.
