The newly engineered, highly power efficient 115/230V AC Series meets the increasing demand on a low power consumption / high output yacht desalinator of outstanding reliability. These extremely quiet operating systems can be started by small to medium sized generators or inverters and leave ample power for other equipment when running. Optional soft starters are available to start the systems on even smaller power supplies.
Like with the largest ECHO Tec. Watermakers, a stainless steel triplex ceramic plunger pump is the heart of the system. Triplex plunger pumps are known to be the most reliable high-pressure pumps available on today's market. The ECHO Tec. 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.

Only highest quality components that have proven to withstand continuous duty in the harsh marine environment during more than 35 millions combined real world operating hours are selected for ultimate performance and lifetime.
All wetted components including the patented true regulating pressure valve and all O-ring sealed high-pressure fittings are made of the same type stainless steel to avoid electrochemical corrosion.
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.

“Since 3 years we have an ECHOTec installed like most cruisers we know. After more than 25.000 liters produced, we as well as all our friends have no problems with your desalination system. Therefore, we have decided to use an ECHOTec watermaker again on our new project: the first circumnavigation on an electro-powered catamaran without sails and any fossil fuel.” Read Full Testimonialss

"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."
