TFM 19 (Trickling Fill Media – 19 mm)
is a structured fill media obtained by the assembly of PVC
thermoformed sheets.
Design
The thermoformed profile is 19 mm in height.
The sheets have a crossed type design, with 60° inclined
flutes with respect to the horizon, which present a inlet
section of 38 mm (19 + 19 mm).
The PVC thermoformed sheets can be made of
different thicknesses in order to adapt the block mechanical
characteristics to the specific application needs.
Principal applications:
The TFM 19 honeycomb structure and its high specific surface allow this product to find a wide use in many applications among with:
Fill media for waste water treatment, such as trickling filters and compact systems
Coalescing media for the oil and hydrocarbons separation
Fill media for evaporative cooling towers
Fill media for gases and fumes abatement columns , like wet scrubbers and stripping columns
Panel filters used for the interception of drops or wet dusts, a san instance in painting cabins and ornamental stones working stations.
PVC Characteristics:
The PVC used to make this fill media comply with the most restrictive standards, such as the CTI rule 136 and the ASTM E-84, presenting many advantages:
Lightness, which allows an easy handling;
Self-extinguishing and fire resistant (ASTM E-84);
High mechanical resistance, in particular to compression;
Resistance to the majority of chemicals and to the biological aggression;
It is an hydrophilic material, this is why water forms a well distributed liquid film while flowing on it.
