High-Capacity Ultrafiltration Point-of-Use
WCC (Water Control Corporation) offers several High-Capacity Ultrafiltration Point-of-Use (HUF®) systems to remove 99.999% of bacteria and 99.99% of viruses. Cooling towers, shower heads, humidifiers, fountains, misting systems… These are all examples of equipment that can atomize Legionella and other pathogens with water droplets – and cause deadly infection when these aerosols are inhaled.
We use hollow fiber membranes, manufactured by Seccua GmbH in Germany. The membranes last 1 – 3 years, depending on application, and automatically flush themselves when they become fouled.
Pressure loss is minimal due to high filter surface areas. WCC offers 12 and 24 GPM HUF® / High-Capacity Ultrafiltration Point-of-Use units with options for:
- BAS integration
- automatic membrane integrity testing
- pressure relief mechanisms
- and more
We also have larger systems, capable of up to 700 GPM, in our High-Capacity Ultrafiltration Point-of-Entry offering.
