acid  soluble  metal  hydroxides  and  calcium  carbonates  or  alkaline  soluble  organic, 
inorganic substances and microbiological slimes.  The ECHOTec Membrane Element is not

ECHOTec  desalination  systems  are  shipped  complete  with  reverse  osmosis  membrane 
element(s)  installed.    However,  if  the  ECHOTec  system  will  not  be  put  to  use  within  10 
months  of  shipment,  there  is  a  potential  danger  of  the  membrane  element(s)  fouling.  
Therefore, we offer to ship your system without the membrane element(s).   This allows 
installing the desalination system at the appropriate refurbishing or production schedule 
without risk to the membrane element(s).  Echo Marine Ltd. will ship the reverse osmosis 
membrane  element(s)  when  notified  that  the  ECHOTec  desalination  system  is  ready  for 
commissioning.  This service is available upon request. 

 

The warranty on the ECHO Tec Watermaker is activated upon shipment of the system with 
the  reverse  osmosis  membrane  element(s)  installed.    However,  by  shipping  the 
watermaker without the reverse osmosis membrane element(s), the warranty period will 
start upon shipment of the membrane element(s), with a  maximum delay of 12 months 
from the date of purchase.
