Compact, reliable solutions for SWRO at sea
Marine and offshore applications place special demands on their seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) systems.
At sea for days and even months at a time, running out of fresh water is not an option for passengers and crews. Nor are quick service calls in case of malfunction. That’s why operational reliability and low maintenance are key for mission-critical components like high-pressure pumps and ERDs.
Like all other seawater desalination applications, energy efficiency also matters at sea, where every drop of diesel saved is a drop earned. Finally, because space is precious onboard most platforms and vessels, compact designs are much preferred to bulkier alternatives.
Danfoss has a decades-long track record in providing the high pressure for marine SWRO applications. Every day across the seven seas, our proven range of APP pumps and iSave ERDs provide unparalleled reliability for vessels of many types and sizes.
Our customers can expect unsurpassed energy efficiency and the most reliable, low-maintenance operation of any comparable solution – all in the smallest footprint on the market.
