standard ½-inch or ¾-inch sanitary fittings and adapters.
Inserting the Pellicon Cassettes
Use one to three cassettes depending on the desired permeate flow rate. Permeate flow
rate increases as filter area increases.
Inspect the tie rods and nuts for signs of burrs or stripped threads. 1. Nuts should
