Projects across the globe use ECT tube diffusers with extended membrane life for their longevity and reliability. Customers can order ECT70 diffusers in a wide range of membrane materials, including:
- EPDM: SSI builds dependability into standard EPDM compounds with a process that emphasizes uniformity. As a result, clients get a consistent product at an affordable price.
- PTFE: During the molding process, SSI can add a PTFE coating to an EPDM membrane. This protective layer reduces creep and plasticizer loss while increasing resistance to fouling and chemicals.
- Silicone: The SSI team can also offer silicone membranes for applications with specific ozone requirements or high temperatures. Silicone membranes also suit situations where the client prefers inorganic membrane materials.
When SSI creates an ECT70 diffuser, we use injection molding with the same materials for reliable disc diffusers. We mold the polypropylene body around the membrane, which results in a construction without loose parts. The materials SSI uses for tube and disc diffusers can last for 10 years or longer.
