Performance And Output
More water, less maintenance.
Options that raise your hourly output or take care of routine membrane maintenance for you.
Membrane expansion kits
For systems with our high-flow, high-pressure pump, which is standard on every engine-drive model and most AC systems.
- Scalable output. Turn an 80 litre per hour system into 160 or 240 by mounting one or two more membranes.
- Carbon fibre vessels. Lightweight, high-strength carbon fibre pressure vessels in a multi-membrane array.
Quencher Autoflush
Designed and made in New Zealand. An idle membrane needs a fresh-water flush at least every 7 days to prevent biological growth, or pickling if the system will be left longer. Autoflush handles the flushing for owners who leave the boat for two weeks to a few months.
- How it works. A simple, reliable timer opens a fresh-water feed valve for 2 minutes every 7 days.
- Uses what's on board. Your domestic water pump draws from the tanks, flushes the membrane, then shuts off.
Coarse 20-micron pre-filter
If you spend a lot of time in murky, nutrient-rich or silty coastal water, two-stage filtration is worth having.
- Protects the system. A washable 20-micron filter catches larger sediment before it reaches your fine filter.
- Fewer filter changes. Your standard 5-micron filter lasts much longer with this second filter body upstream.
