The 3M™ Liqui-Cel™ MM Series Membrane Contactor is our smallest degassing (debubbling) devices. These devices pack a high membrane surface area into a very small footprint. Used primarily in laboratory and analytical applications, degassing with these small point of use degassers/debubblers may help (a) improve measurement reliability, (b) reduce rework and (c) improve product quality.
Product Details
Lab-scale systems producing deionized (DI) water have limited space to incorporate degassing technology. The compact design of the Liqui-Cel MM series allows manufacturers of DI water systems to provide degassed DI water without taking up a lot of space inside the system. Products are available to handle flow rates from 5 ml/min to 3000 ml/min.
About 3M™ Liqui-Cel™ Membrane Contactors
3M™ Liqui-Cel™ Membrane Contactors provide efficient dissolved gas control in a compact design. Capable of adding gases to or removing dissolved gases from compatible liquid streams, these gas transfer devices utilize hollow fiber membrane technology that may help facilities around the world improve operating efficiency, performance and protect product quality.
How 3M™ Liqui-Cel™ Membrane Contactors Work
3M™ Liqui-Cel™ Membrane Contactors utilize microporous or non-porous, semi permeable hollow fiber membrane that is placed inside a contactor housing. In our EXF, SP, and MM-0.5x1 and MM-0.75x1 series membrane contactors, liquid flows around the outside of the hollow fiber membrane while a vacuum and/or sweep gas is applied to the inside of the hollow fiber during operation.
