SPECTRA Water Purification Equipment Land-Based Watermaker LB 1800 F Desalination System

The Spectra LB 1800 F Land-Based Watermaker is a desalination system utilizing Spectra Pearson Pump™ technology. This pump technology allows the system to achieve energy efficiency comparable to large industrial desalination plants, producing 285 liters of drinking water per hour from a variety of water sources. These units can also be optionally equipped with a custom PC board controller for fully automated operation.

The Pearson Pump is a breakthrough in pump design, combining a high-pressure piston pump with an integrated energy recovery system. This saves up to 75% of energy by recovering the high-pressure brine energy that would otherwise be wasted. The Pearson Pump's "hydraulic locking" recovery rate allows the system to produce its full rated volume of water from almost any water source without the user needing to make any adjustments to the system.

The LB 1800 F is mounted in a sturdy stainless steel frame, with all components pre-assembled and tested. It also features a special design with a built-in permeate flush tank, which is convenient for cleaning with a simple turn of a valve.

SPECTRA LAND-BASED WATERMAKER LB 1800 F

• Spectra Connect controller automates operation and allows for remote monitoring and control via LAN.
• Extremely energy-efficient; power consumption typically does not exceed 800 watts when processing seawater.
• Uses soft-start speed control to prevent current spikes during startup.
• Features a robust 304 stainless steel frame with a powder-coated finish for increased durability.

• Equipped with a fixed water recovery ratio, simplifying operation while maximizing the lifespan of the reverse osmosis membrane.

• Due to its high energy efficiency, it is ideal for use with wind or solar power.
• Much quieter than traditional reverse osmosis watermakers.
• Patented energy recovery design and automatic control technology eliminate the need for continuous monitoring.
