Description
Dow® Filmtec™ TW30-4040 is the industry standard for reliable operation and production of the highest quality water. Tape-wrapped elements are built with the same high quality membranes and materials as industrial elements, without the hard outer shell, making them more economical for commercial systems with one or two elements per housing.
