Integrated Rack Design (IRD)
The Integrated Rack Design (IRD) enables the easy installation of an array of modules, in a compact footprint, with minimal engineering effort.
Introducing the Integrated Rack Design for NX Nano 50
The Integrated Rack Design (IRD) is a compact and flexible rack solution developed for NX Nano 50 membrane modules. Designed to simplify installation and system integration, the IRD combines a small footprint, modular configuration and efficient on-site assembly in one practical solution.
Small footprint
The compact design enables efficient use of available space, making the IRD particularly suitable for installations where footprint is limited. This allows more membrane capacity to be installed within a smaller area.
Easy on-site assembly
The modular design supports straightforward and efficient installation on site. By simplifying assembly and reducing installation complexity, the IRD helps save time and resources during project execution.
Modular and scalable
The IRD can be configured and expanded according to project requirements. Modules can be added as capacity requirements grow, providing flexibility for both new installations and future system expansion.
Cost-effective system design
By combining standardised components, efficient use of materials and simplified engineering, the IRD helps reduce overall system and installation costs without compromising membrane performance.
The result is a compact, scalable and practical rack solution that makes it easier to integrate NX Nano technology into a wide range of water treatment applications.
Manufactured using NX Filtration’s patented layer-by-layer membrane technology, NX Nano membranes combine precisely controlled separation characteristics with high permeability, supporting reliable and efficient filtration performance across a wide range of feed waters.
NX Nano is suitable for a broad range of water treatment applications, including the removal of colour, COD and BOD, PFAS and other micropollutants, microplastics, viruses, bacteria and endocrine-disrupting compounds. The technology can also be applied for industrial wastewater reuse and the removal of pharmaceutical residues.
This combination of selective separation, low fouling and operational flexibility makes NX Nano a versatile solution for challenging drinking water, wastewater and water reuse applications.
The modules can be backwashed as part of regular operation and maintenance, supporting stable performance and extended run times. The robust membrane chemistry also allows cleaning with chlorine and operation across a wide pH range, providing effective control of organic and biological fouling in demanding applications.
Combined with the Integrated Rack Design (IRD), NX Nano offers a compact, modular and practical solution for water treatment systems. The small footprint, simplified installation and scalable configuration help reduce system complexity while maintaining reliable membrane performance.
The result is an efficient and flexible platform that makes it easier to integrate NX Nano technology into both new and existing water treatment installations.
NX Nano membranes provide effective removal of colour, turbidity and dissolved organic compounds, including micropollutants such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides and PFAS. Their robust membrane chemistry offers excellent resistance to chlorine and a wide pH range, while the process can operate with limited pretreatment, without coagulation and without producing coagulation sludge.
Two membrane types are available within the NX Nano 50 platform: NX Nano 400 and NX Nano 800. Each offers a different balance between permeability and rejection, allowing the membrane selection to be tailored to the specific feed water, treatment objective and performance requirements of the application.
Up to six building blocks can be combined in a single rack, providing a maximum configuration of 2 × 24 modules, or 48 modules in total.
NX Nano 50
The NX Nano 50 module is available with either one or two permeate ports. The dual-permeate-port configuration supports more efficient sanitation and cleaning procedures. Both module configurations are fully compatible with the Integrated Rack Design.
For detailed configurations, dimensions and technical specifications, please download the brochure at the bottom of this page.
For larger installations, the standardized rack design can be expanded to 48 or 96 modules by positioning two racks adjacent to each other.
