NANOFILTRATION AND REVERSE OSMOSIS
PRODUCTS
FLUID SYSTEMS’ nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) product
lines are suitable for the delivery of consistent, high-quality filtration,
offering municipal and industrial clients a total treatment solution with
re-use potential.
The NF and RO products are available in 8′′ FRP hard overwrap
configuration (8040) in standard and high area construction, and are
listed under ANSI/NSF Standard 61. The line includes multiple products
engineered to serve in potable water and industrial water applications.
For example, the TFC SW series of high-rejection seawater RO
membranes can be used for the treatment of high TDS industrial
streams and seawater desalination. The TFC HR
range of robust high-rejection and low-fouling
brackish water RO products offers consistent
operation when treating industrial streams
and wastewater effluents. The TFC SR low-
energy NF products can meanwhile be used
for water softening, seawater sulfate removal
and organics removal.

FUSION SPLICER AND
CLEAVER
The FITEL S179 is a handheld,
high-performance core align-
ment fusion splicer that delivers
rapid splicing (6 s) and heating (9
s) with consistent results. It is available
for rent from TechRentals.
The splicer has a wide, 4.3′′ LCD touch screen
and a keypad for enhanced operator flexibility. Additionally, the S179
comes embedded with near field communication (NFC), which
allows operators to lock and unlock the splicer via smartphone.
The FITEL S179 fusion splicer is highly effective for use in data
centres, long-haul operations, Metro, LAN and FTTx fibre, including
ultra bend-insensitive fibres as well as large area effective fibres.
To support usability and visibility in low-light environments, the
S179 is equipped with 3+1 LED lights, which illuminate the entire
splicing chamber.
Features include S326 cleaver; high-speed splicing and heating;
easy, intuitive operation; and state-of-the-art communication methods.

The active redundancy modules in the QUINT product range from Phoenix Contact increase the
availability of a system through decoupling and monitoring. The ORING modules run the cable to
the load redundantly and separately. In combination with the QUINT POWER power supplies, the
redundant system is monitored continuously.
Using preventive function monitoring, the redundancy module informs users about the output
voltages of the power supplies, defects in the wiring and the decoupling section, as well as the
actual load current. Critical operating states are therefore detected at an early stage.
With a capacity of 40 A, the modules are suitable for DC voltages from 12 to 24 V. They feature
a narrow design of 32 mm, DIN rail mounting and an operating temperature range from -40 to
+70°C. The active redundancy module with protective coating (plus version) also ensures system
availability under harsh environmental conditions such as dust, dirt, corrosive gases and 100%
humidity. Overvoltage protection ensures surge voltages are limited to 30 VDC.
