Tube unit, degassing module, and method of manufacturing tube unit

Abstract

A tube unit includes multiple tubes, a bundling portion that bundles end portions of the tubes, and pipe elements that are inserted into respective end portions of the tubes and support the end portions of the tubes from inside. A degassing module includes the tube unit and a housing in which the tube unit is accommodated and that separates inside spaces inside the respective tubes from an outside space outside the tubes. In addition, each tube is a tubular membrane that allows gas to pass therethrough and prohibits liquid from passing therethrough. The housing has an inside-space opening that is in communication with the inside spaces of the tubes and an outside-space opening that is in communication with the outside space of the tubes.
