Low Pressure RO Membranes
Start with the code on your old element.
Low pressure RO elements in 2521, 2540, 4021, 4040 and 8040 sizes, rated at a lower test pressure than brackish elements: 100 to 150 psi on 500 to 2,000 ppm NaCl. Some maker datasheets call them ultra low pressure or low energy. Match the code on your element, then compare the figures on each product page.

Sizes
Each maker's own length and outside diameter are in the spec table on its product page. Flow, rated rejection and pressure differ by model, so compare the figures on each product page.
2521 and 2540 are nominal 2.5 inch elements, 21 and 40 inches long
Per FilmTec's datasheets, 2521 and 2540 elements are made for a nominal 2.5 inch vessel, 4021 and 4040 for a nominal 4 inch vessel, and the BW30-400 for a nominal 8 inch vessel; CSM's RE4040 datasheets say the same for the 4040.

- Earlier datasheets list the BW 4040 R, BW 4040 ES and BW 400 ES as LG models; the current datasheets (v260930) are issued by NanoH2O Co., Ltd.
Seawater, brackish or low pressure?
Test basis from the maker datasheets we hold. Each product page shows its own figures.
Low pressure
Rated at a lower test pressure, on 500 to 2,000 ppm salt water.

Replacing the vessel too?
Per FilmTec's datasheets, 2521 and 2540 elements are made for a nominal 2.5 inch vessel and 4021 and 4040 for a nominal 4 inch vessel (CSM's RE4040 datasheets say the same for the 4040). Check the vessel's design pressure against your system before you order.
