GENERAL
The ULTROclear (UC) Direct Feed (DF) low pressure reverse osmosis (RO) system is designed
to treat RO permeate/product water from an upstream first pass RO/watermaker system, directly
without intermediate break tanks. Installation of the Parker Sea Recovery low pressure
ULTROclear DF system is typically inside of a ship/vessel or inside of a building for land based
applications. The second pass RO system provides ultrapure water for spot free rinsing (zero
mineral deposits) and similar high purity applications.
Key Features:

Direct Feed operation treating first pass RO permeate directly without buffer tank(s)

Corrosion resistant low pressure RO system – coated aluminum frame

Run dry RO pump operation without damage – Robust & Reliable

Simple operation, ON & OFF automatic

Parker Quality – Parker Hannifin Corporation/Water Purification – Sea Recovery
INSTALLATION
Refer to the attached installation diagram
Step 1A: Place the RO system in a suitable location in the ship or building with enough room for
maintenance and servicing.
Step 2A: Secure the RO system down with appropriate anchorage and vibration mounts, as
necessary.
Step 3A: Connect ½” tubing (Parker Nylon N series tubing) to the INLET port on the connection
panel. Feed water is supplied directly from an upstream RO watermaker. Typical supply pressure
is 20 to 50 psi.
Note: The UC can treat onboard potable water or dockside potable water in addition to direct-feed from the
watermaker.
Step 4A: Connect ½” tubing to the BRINE port and route to drain or recycle back to the low
pressure piping of the seawater RO watermaker for 100% recovery.
