Performance
| Element Model | Membrane Active Area ft2 (m2) | Feed Spacer mil (mm) | Permeate Flow Rate* GPD (m3/d) | Stabilized Salt Rejection** | Minimum Salt Rejection |
| MCBW-8040HF | 400 (37.2) | 28 (0.712) | 11,000 (41.6) | 99.7% | 99.5% |
Standard test conditions:The above performance is initial(data record after 30 minutes of operation), based on the following conditions:2,000 ppm NaCl solution225 psi (15.5 bar) operating pressure25°C (77°F) operating temperature15% permeate recovery7.5-8 pH range*Permeate flow for individual elements may vary but will be no more than ±15%.**Stabilized salt rejection is generally achieved within 24-48 hours of continuous use; depending on feed water characteristics and operating conditions.
