DuPont™ IntegraTec™ XP 51 IP IG Ultrafiltration Module for Industrial Water, Wastewater Reuse and RO Pretreatment | Compact, High-Recovery PVDF Membrane

Product Description

Compact, High-Recovery Ultrafiltration for Industrial Water and Wastewater Treatment

The DuPont™ IntegraTec™ XP 51 IP IG is a compact, pressurized ultrafiltration module designed for industrial utility water, industrial wastewater reuse, municipal wastewater filtration, and reverse osmosis pretreatment. Its shorter module format makes it especially well suited to height-restricted facilities, containerized treatment plants, and modular water systems where space efficiency is essential.

Featuring DuPont’s proven XP™ hydrophilic PVDF hollow-fiber membrane, the XP 51 IP IG combines high filtration permeability with excellent resistance to fouling and chlorine. Its 0.03 μm nominal pore size provides effective removal of colloidal particles and high log removal of bacteria and viruses, helping deliver consistent filtrate quality while protecting downstream treatment processes.

With 51 m² (549 ft²) of active membrane area, the module offers dependable filtration capacity in a compact configuration. Its outside-in, dead-end operating design supports high water recovery and efficient solids removal across demanding industrial and municipal wastewater applications.

Designed for Space-Efficient, Scalable Systems

The XP 51 IP IG features an innovative end-cap design that allows modules to be coupled directly within DuPont™ IntegraTec™ IP skids. This simplifies system assembly, reduces installation complexity, and enables treatment capacity to be expanded as operating requirements grow.

High tolerance to air scouring supports effective backwashing and stable filtration performance. Combined with DuPont’s recommended maintenance-cleaning protocol, the module can help reduce chemical consumption and simplify routine maintenance.

Robust wetted materials, reliable PVDF membrane technology, and a compact 1,991 mm (78.4 in) overall length make the IntegraTec™ XP 51 IP IG a practical choice for system integrators and plant operators seeking high-recovery ultrafiltration without the space requirements of a full-length module.

 FAQ Content

What is the IntegraTec™ XP 51 IP IG used for?

The XP 51 IP IG is designed for industrial utility water treatment, industrial wastewater reuse, municipal wastewater filtration, and pretreatment before reverse osmosis systems.

Why is the XP 51 IP IG suitable for containerized systems?

Its overall length is approximately 1,991 mm (78.4 in) , making it suitable for systems with limited vertical clearance. The compact module can be integrated into modular skids and containerized water treatment plants.

What type of membrane does the XP 51 IP IG use?

The module uses hydrophilic PVDF hollow-fiber membrane technology with a nominal pore size of 0.03 μm. This membrane provides high permeability, fouling resistance, chlorine tolerance, and effective removal of colloidal and microbial contaminants.

What is the filtration capacity of the XP 51 IP IG?

The XP 51 IP IG provides 51 m² (549 ft²) of active membrane area and has a specified maximum filtration flow of 5.6 m³/h (24.8 gpm) . Actual system capacity depends on feedwater quality, operating conditions, and treatment objectives.

How does the XP 51 IP IG support RO pretreatment?

Its ultrafiltration membrane reduces colloidal particles, suspended contaminants, bacteria, and viruses before water reaches the RO system. This helps reduce the contaminant load on downstream membranes and supports more stable RO performance.

Is the XP 51 IP IG suitable for expandable treatment plants?

Yes. Its end-cap design enables direct coupling in DuPont™ IntegraTec™ IP skids, simplifying initial assembly and allowing treatment capacity to be expanded as demand increases.
