AC Watermakers for Yachts (Modular) |
The ECHO Tec. AML/S Series desalination system is a well proven cruising gear for yachts with single or 3 phase generators of 6 KW
or larger. Designed by- and for cruisers, these rugged systems
were constantly improved over the past 15 years since introduction
in 1997 and have proven ultimate reliability and longevity in more
than 35 millions combined real world operating hours.
Innovative system features like pH neutralizing post treatment,
O-ring sealed high-pressure connectors throughout the system and field attachable high-pressure hose fittings for easy self installation, together with low purchase/maintenance cost and cruiser friendly
after sales service have made ECHOTec modular AC watermakers
the logical choice for boaters worldwide.

Like with the largest ECHOTec watermakers, an extremely quiet operating stainless steel triplex ceramic plunger pump is heart
of the AML/S systems. The ECHOTec pump is a low revolution,
low friction custom version, driven by a highly efficient NEMA
Premium WATTSAVER AC Motor, designed for continuous duty
under tropical conditions.
For economical maintenance we do not use proprietary
components that bound you to purchase expensive consumables,
only available from the original manufacturer. Standard filters, chemicals and membranes can be obtained anywhere.
These desalination systems are engineered without "bells and whistles" for live aboard offshore cruising with peace of mind.

Product water from any RO watermaker is extremely pure, has little salt content, is very soft and acidic due to the removal of alkaline mineral constituents of the seawater. Therefore, similar to rainwater, using RO product requires significantly more freshwater to rinse off soap, shampoo and other detergents.
ECHOTec is the first watermaker manufacturer to combat this problem by improving the RO product quality with a standard supplied post treatment system. The newly developed mineral dispenser returns some hardness to the water and offers a practical, low maintenance solution that saves up to 50% fresh water.
The ECHOTec post treatment element also contains a mixture of minerals that returns bicarbonate alkalinity, correcting pH only enough to reach a neutral equilibrium. This dramatically reduces corrosion on metal tanks, boilers, washing machines and plumbing due to acidic product water.
As the water is slightly re-mineralized, this will also improve the taste of the product water.

Choose wisely a watermaker - Article by Sam Mazza - Blue Water Sailing
"Having recently passed Captain Cook's "Thirsty Sound" inside Australia's Great Barrier Reef it seemed a good time to send a note thanking you for my excellent water maker. Given the choice I shall never sail without one. There are surprisingly many boats with your equipment on board and without exception we are all very happy with our water-makers and the excellent and prompt back-up you have given us."
