Benefits

Why Choose CLEAR Eco 8040-400

⚡

Ultra-Low Energy

The CLEAR Eco 8040-400 operates at just 100 psi (6.9 bar) — significantly lower than conventional brackish-water membranes (150-225 psi). For a commercial plant running continuously, the energy savings compound rapidly.

🔬

Aquaporin Inside®

Biomimetic protein channels selectively transport water molecules while rejecting salts, dissolved organics, and microorganisms — producing high-quality permeate with less hydraulic energy than traditional polymer membranes.

💧

13,500 GPD Output

The highest nominal flow in the CLEAR Eco family — a single element replaces multiple conventional 8040 membranes in medium-capacity plants, cutting both capital cost and system footprint.

📦

Dry Element — Ready to Ship

Unlike wet-tested membranes that require preservative solutions, CLEAR Eco ships dry — no glycerin flush, no chemical disposal, no extended commissioning delays.

Applications

How Customers Use CLEAR Eco 8040-400

01

Commercial Drinking Water

Bottling plants, breweries, water vending operations — anywhere that needs high-volume, high-quality permeate with the lowest possible energy cost per litre.

02

Light Industrial

Boiler feed water, cooling tower make-up, parts washing — processes that consume thousands of gallons daily and where energy cost is a material line item.

03

Agricultural & Horticultural

Greenhouse irrigation, hydroponics, livestock drinking water — applications where 13,500 GPD throughput and low operating pressure make the difference between profitable and marginal.

Perfect Pairing

CLEAR Eco 8040-400 + The Heart

RO permeate is demineralised — pair with The Heart after your RO system to revitalise the water. Especially valuable for agricultural applications where structured water has shown benefits in plant growth studies.
