MAX Sanitary Ultrafiltration Spiral-Wound Element:
Synder Filtration’s MAX Series of Ultrafiltration Elements offer exceptional physical and chemical durability, in the same wide range of MWCO’s as our standard UF elements. Contact us today to learn more about our complete line of membrane products and services.
Synder’s BY membrane is a tighter version of the BX PVDF membrane, with a molecular weight cut-off of 100kDa. BY offers good resistance to temperature and pH conditions and is available in flat sheet, spiral-wound elements, and custom configurations upon request. Common applications include usage in corn wet milling processes, and microbial/particle removal.
MAX SERIES BENEFITS
- Conforms to 3-A, FDA, and USDA sanitary standards
- Elimination of chlorine during CIP with hot sanitation
- High resistance to pH, temperature, & fouling
- Customizable dimensions for unique housings
COMMON APPLICATIONS
- Corn wet milling
- Microbial/Particle removal

TECHNICAL NOTES
For element sizes not listed, please call or email Synder Filtration for details. We can design an element to fit your exact needs – just specify the element outer diameter (OD) or vessel/housing inner diameter (ID), element inner diameter (ID), and length. Elements are also available with or without a controlled bypass tail. Additional feed spacers are also available. Trials should be conducted to determine optimal application conditions.
