Watermakers / Components
Components
The parts inside every Open Ocean watermaker, and why we chose them.
What It's Built From
Proven parts, chosen to last.
Carbon fibre membranes
Engineered and machined in New Zealand, our carbon fibre pressure vessels are strong and light. We combine custom carbon fibre tubes with high-density thermoformed end caps for a completely corrosion-free system.
High-pressure pumps
The current industry-standard high-pressure pump for watermakers, with a pump body made from 316 stainless steel. This series has ceramic pistons and is engineered for saltwater, for a long service life.
Standard BSP fittings
We use standard BSP pipe fittings and hose tails. There are plenty of good plumbing systems with convenient push-to-fit fittings and tubing, but they come in so many standards and styles that they aren't available worldwide.
Standard pipe-thread fittings and hose tails are tried and true, and available virtually anywhere.

Engine-driven, AC, DC High-Output and land-based systems, all built from the same components.
