Access-products

The Alfa Laval LabUnit M37/38 is a fully integrated plate-and-frame system for ultrafiltration and microfiltration membrane processes. The module of this unit utilizes the same support plates and membranes as our full-scale membrane filtration modules. This makes the Alfa Laval LabUnit M37/38 a flexible tool for process development, up-scaling, membrane testing, quality assurance and small-scale production. Optional plate sets are available for feeds of different viscosity / solids content

Fully integrated, easy-to-use pilot equipment for membrane filtration tests

  • Fully integrated – complete with LabStakTM M37/38 module, pump, pipework, valves, heat exchanger and instrumentation
  • Flexible – different channel height options available to optimize flow and pressure
  • Easy membrane exchange, flexible membrane area (between 0.11 and 1.05 m²) and simultaneous test of up to 7 different membrane types
  • High operating temperature (up to 80°)
  • Low internal volume

The Alfa Laval LabUnit M37/38 can be fitted with our full range of flat sheet membranes for ultrafiltration and microfiltration. The flow pattern is similar to that in larger systems which makes it easier to scale up and test our filtration equipment. The unit can be connected to the by-pass stream of an industrial plant. All components comply with FDA regulations, allowing use within food and pharmaceutical processing applications.
