Sanitary System Design

Traditional ceramic membrane filtration designs have evolved from water treatment, and as a result, a large number of non-sanitary designs have proliferated throughout the ceramic membrane filtration system industry. Due to the success of the HOLVES TFF products, the HOLVES K₂C series of ceramic membrane systems draws heavily on sanitary system designs, allowing the K₂C series of ceramic membrane systems to be used in a wide range of applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

  • 3A Sanitary Standards: Adopting 3A sanitary standards for design, strictly enforcing the use of materials and welding.
  • 3D Design: The piping is designed in sanitary 3D to avoid residue, stagnant fluids, emptying and maintenance issues.
  • Seamless Welding: Seamless welding technology is used for key piping to ensure no dead ends or rust problems.
  • Selected Components: Valves, piping, sensors are of sanitary design and branded components.
  • Fully-automatic Control: Reduce human intervention and ensure product consistency with a high degree of automation.

HSeal Sealing Technology

Ceramic Membrane Shell

EPDM / PTFE / PP

As one of the core components of the ceramic membrane filtration system, the membrane shell plays a crucial role. HOLVES membrane shell adopts the imported flat replacement program, cooperates with domestic industry leading manufacturers, and integrates the self-developed HSeal sealing technology, which is a perfect replacement for the imported membrane shell.

  • Sealing Solutions: Divided into single seal and integral seal types
  • Sanitary Requirement: The overall design and implementation of strict compliance with ASME-BPE design and health requirements.
  • Technology Characteristics: The application of this technology ensures system integrity and low leakage, which is critical to maintaining the long-term reliability and stability of the filtration process.
