The watermaker operation may be monitored from a remote location as the boat pilot bridge
using a remote control panel available as option. The remote panel has START, STOP and

System.

maintenance, thanks to interactive menus. It can display all the same information of the

UV sterilizer
The ultraviolet sterilizer is needed to eliminate the bacteria which may be in the stored
fresh water. The UV sterilizer supplied by Tecnicomar can be installed in any watermaker
and guarantees the sterilization of the stored water. The UV sterilizer may be installed at
the tank outlet to ensure purity of the fresh water. Models available : 4, 8, 30 liters per
minute.

Multimedia sand filter or TFD filter
Waters containing impurities which cannot be filtered out by the normal
prefilters supplied with the watermaker require a first filtration treatment to
eliminate the gross particles and to prepare the water for the prefiltration
treatment.
The installation of a multimedia sand filter, or of a TFD filter, is simple and
may be done on any watermaker, even if already installed.
A multimedia sand filter, or a TFD filter, is advised when the watermaker has
to operate in very dirty waters or for many hours per day. The sand filter, and
the TFD filter, filtrates suspended solids that are larger than 30 micron and
provides protection and long life to prefilter cartridges. The sand filter, and
the TFD filter, regenerates with backflush by simply operating 3 valves.
