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.

Not great at cooling
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
Each pillow cover has 2 sides, one marked for cooling, and the other a different fabric. The cooling side is about the same effectiveness as having a silk or satin pillow cover. It's only cool when you first touch it. The cooling side doesn't seem to absorb or wick moisture, so if you are sweaty - it keeps the moisture in place. You'll definitely want a regular pillow case over the pillow cover. In fact, if you suffer from night sweats, the non-cooling side is actually more comfortable. The pillow fill is ample, and simple to squish around for more support for your neck, etc. Think bean bag. But it will retain your impression after use. I find I need to do as I did when I had down pillows - give it a few good shakes in the morning when I make the bed to get it evened out for the coming night. In all, it is a well-made and comfortable pillow to sleep on, but it does not excel in cooling.

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to. 1000% love these.

The Perfect Firm Pillow l
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
It is everything it claims to be, cool, comfortable and strong. I got this for my husband first, he loves it and then got one for my son, he uses it to support his knees and has been sleeping much better since then. They both needed a firm pillow that is not super soft, firm but not achy. Finally found the perfect one.

Comodidad total durante el embarazo
Esta almohada en forma de U ha sido una de las mejores compras de mi embarazo. Brinda soporte completo a la espalda, la pancita y las piernas, ayudándome a encontrar una postura cómoda para dormir. Es muy suave, no se aplasta y se adapta perfectamente al cuerpo. Desde que la uso descanso mucho mejor y me despierto sin dolores. Además, la funda es agradable al tacto y fácil de lavar. La recomiendo totalmente a futuras mamás que buscan dormir mejor y sentirse más cómodas. 💕

Comfortable accessory
This U-shaped pillow is made with a soft exterior material. The overall shape and flexibility allows for comfort in a number of different positions. I was expecting a pillow that was slightly more firm, however, it suits the intended purpose. The cover is removable and machine washable.
