(SOLD): X-Spiral 2.5 - 4 Membrane Skid Upgraded with Expansion Rack

For Sale: X-Spiral 2.5 - 4 Membrane Skid Upgraded with Expansion Rack)
This X-Spiral system has been professionally upgraded with an additional 4 membrane expansion rack. The upgrade increases total membrane surface area, solvent recovery throughput, and operational flexibility while maintaining the same compact, modular design.
System Overview

  • Base model: X-Spiral 2.5

  • Upgrade: x4 membrane stainless steel expansion rack

  • Construction: 304 stainless steel, solvent-service rated

  • Configuration: Four spiral membrane housings mounted across two banks, for a total of 8 membranes

  • Electrical classification: Suitable for solvent environments (C1D1-ready components)

  • Footprint: Modular rack design allows compact layout and easy maintenance access

Performance:

  • Increased solvent recovery and dewaxing capacity (approx. 1.5–2Γ— throughput of the original X-Spiral 2.5)

  • Supports multiple membrane chemistries and MWCOs for ethanol or hydrocarbon applications

  • Capable of fine filtration, color remediation, and solvent polishing at room temperature

  • Fully drainable and CIP-ready with valved manifolds for bank isolation and cleaning

Condition:

  • Excellent condition, lightly used

  • Clean, well-maintained, and ready for installation

  • All stainless fittings, valves, and instrumentation included

Ideal For:

  • Cannabis or botanical extraction operations

  • Solvent recovery, winterization, or filtration steps in ethanol workflows

  • Facilities seeking higher throughput without expanding footprint

Included With Sale

  • Complete X-Spiral 2.5 Upgraded with additional expansion rack containing four additional membrane housings

  • Feed pump, manifolds, and valves

  • Control panel with a potentiometer for feed control, a needle valve for dialing in backpressure, and an analog temperature gauge for process temperature monitoring. Also includes aftermarket flow meter in-line of feed to easier quantify the feed into the system.

  • (x8) new SBNF color remediation membranes ($3200)

  • Hydra-cell D10 electric diaphragm pump

Location: Eureka, CA
Price: $60,000 obo
Availability: Ready to ship or load on truck/trailer (Buyer must pay for freight pickup) or (pick up locally in Eureka,CA)

Even though this has already been sold, I feel the need to clear up some terminology.

X-Spiral names refer to the diameters of their membranes. An X-Spiral 2.5 takes 2.5” membranes, and X-Spiral 4 takes 4” membranes.

So, adding an expansion rack doubles the 2.5’s throughput rate, but it does not turn it into an X-Spiral 4. An X-Spiral 4 has triple (not double) the throughput rate of a 2.5. It, too, is expandable with an expansion rack to double it’s capacity. So, the rated capacities are:

2.5: 60 GPH

2.5 with expansion rack: 120 GPH

4: 180 GPH

4 with expansion rack: 360 GPH

That said everything else in this advertisement is accurate.
