Modular or cartridge-type membrane units utilize hollow, cylindrical tubular housings or receivers to house strings of removable membrane modules (elements) and normally comprise arrays of pipes that act as membrane module housings. A pseudo header for fluidly interconnecting the array of pipes reduces weight and cost. The pseudo header may comprise portions that are buried within skid components such as the toe bar. An internal low friction coating permits a larger number of membrane cartridges to be utilized in any cylindrical tubular membrane housing. A center feed pseudo header permits flow in two directions through the tubular membrane housing to double hydraulic capacity.
