Watermaker boat: what do you choose?
There is a wide range of devices for water treatment and management, which can make it difficult to find the right product. You can choose from the following products:
- Rehardening Filter MHF for water mineralisation and pH adjustment of the produced distillate. Necessary to prevent corrosion in the successive parts of your ship's distribution system. When the water flows through the Rehardening Filter, pH adjustment takes place. The filter determines the correct hardness of the distilled water.
- Sterilisation system for disinfecting drinking water by chlorine dosage or UV lamps.
- Dosing units for pretreatment of seawater (pollution control, disinfection, chlorine dosing, brake systems, etc.) for drinking water treatment (disinfection of produced water) and cooling circuit treatment.
- Anti-pollution system, also known as anti-fouling system, to prevent / eliminate biological growth in cooling systems. This is done by releasing copper ions in seawater with the help of a small electrical direct current.
- Evaporators are vacuum and immersion tube types that distil water at a low evaporation temperature.
- ION-Pac prevents and removes existing biological fouling in seawater inlets and piping systems. This prevents reduced performance and damage to installations on board. The ION-Pac injects copper ions (Cu 2+) into the sea water cooling system, which makes fouling impossible in these places.
- Reverse Osmosis Unit works on the reverse osmosis principle. The raw water is pressurised through a semi-permeable membrane that allows only fresh water flows. Brine removes the salt and other contaminants.
