DESCRIPTION
The LB 1800 F is an analog desalination unit that is built using the patented Spectra Pearson Pump™ which allows for energy efficiencies comparable to large scale industrial desalination plants. The LB 1800 F is a turnkey solution producing 75 gallons/hour (285 Liters/hour) of fresh potable water from fresh, brackish or seawater sources. These units are available with an optional custom built pc board controller for fully automated operation. The LB 1800 F systems are completely integrated into a stainless steel frame and factory tested to rigid performance specification.
The Pearson Pump™ is a breakthrough in pump design, combining a high-pressure piston pump with built-in energy recovery. The energy normally wasted in the high-pressure brine stream is recovered, saving up to 75% of the power required for a standard reverse osmosis system. The Pearson Pump’s™ “hydraulically locked” recovery rate allows the system to produce the full rated volume of water from virtually any water source, without the user making any changes to the system. Standard systems require operator adjustments as the pressure or temperature changes, but our fixed recovery rate system eliminates the need for operator input and prevents membrane damage.
The LB 1800 F is contained within a rugged 304 powder coated stainless steel frame, pre-plumbed and tested with all components. It includes is a built-in permeate flush tank which doubles as a clean in place tank by simply turning the service valves.
All landbased systems need a low pressure feed pump (not included) based on your site specific requirements. Depending on the quality of the feed water available on your site media filters may be also be required to allow the prefilters to last for a reasonable amount of time.
