On a yacht, reverse osmosis is used to convert seawater into fresh water through semi-permeable membrane filtering out salt, organics and bacteria.

Watermakers are becoming an increasingly popular addition to yachts of all sizes. They provide clean, healthy drinking water for crew and guests.

What is its production process?

An automatic fresh water purifier in yachts is a device that turns seawater through a reverse osmosis membrane to produce potable water. By doing so, salts are removed from the water, rendering it bacteria-free and safe for human consumption.

Yachts, which tend to be larger and more luxurious than 23 ft cabin cruisers, require a significant amount of fresh water for filling hot tubs, pools, boat systems and routine deck washing. Unfortunately, these larger marine fresh water tanks can easily become overrun with algae and other harmful microorganisms which do not promote healthy living at sea.

To combat this issue, many yacht owners opt for a system which automatically measures salinity before diverting the product water to a holding tank for final filtration with carbon filters and optional pH filters (standard on larger units). The end result is pure, bacteria-free drinking water at all times.

Yacht owners typically choose between semi-automatic and manual systems: the former being more economical and needing less upkeep. Semi-automatic systems often include a control box that measures salinity levels as well as optional tank float switches to automatically start or stop the system when one holding tank is full or empty.

How does it work?

An automatic fresh water purifier on yachts is an efficient way to guarantee potable, clean drinking water when away from port. These tanks can be found on many types of vessels, from 23 foot cabin cruisers up to 100 foot yachts.

Even with the best intentions, raw water that enters these tanks may contain a variety of impurities and bacteria which make it difficult to drink. The end result can be hazardous for you and those around you; thus, be wary before using this water for anything other than personal hygiene purposes.

On yachts, standard fresh water desalinators use reverse osmosis (RO) to transform saline ocean water into pure drinking water. This involves forcing the seawater through a membrane that filters out salt molecules.

Depending on the capacity required for a yacht, systems can be either fully automatic or semi-automatic. Both options offer tank float switches, automatic start/stop functions, salinity measurement, and flow rate monitoring capabilities.

On smaller vessels with limited space or for extended stays offshore, manual operation of the system using a conventional switch and back pressure regulating valve is possible. Some models feature digital displays showing product water salinity as well as system status.

What is his contribution to the overall result?

Large yachts require a lot of fresh water on board for drinking, showering and grooming. Many boat owners will store over 1,000 pounds of potable water in their tanks at any given time – this can have negative effects on life on board as well as expose the vessel itself to water damage and biofilm buildup that could reduce gelcoat or paint lifespans.
