AK Series Low Energy Brackish Water RO Membrane

The A-Series family of proprietary thin-film reverse osmosis membrane is characterized by high flux and high sodium chloride rejection. AK LE brackish water elements are selected when high rejection, high flow, and ultra-low operating pressures are desired.

The AK LE element is a low energy high flow element for beverage, light commercial, residential, and general industrial applications. AK LE Series elements feature a Fiberglass outer wrap.

AK LE series is certified to NSF/ANSI 61.
