Introduction
1.1 General
Thank you for choosing a Schenker Watermaker which we know will give you years of
service, making life onboard more enjoyable.
To ensure the maximum efficiency of your Schenker Watermaker and its trouble free working,
Please read this manual and to keep it onboard for reference.
The Modular 60 watermaker uses Schenker’s patented ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM which
amplifies the pressure of common low pressure pumps, and recoups all the hydraulic energy back
from the membrane. This saves on the use of power, allowing the Modular 60 to be run directly
from the vessels batteries.
The ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM operating components are reduced to a minimum, thanks
to two internationally patented solutions that eliminate the need for pilot valves.
The lack of high-pressure pumps ensure that the system is silent and vibration free. It also means
that no adjustments are required when the system is started up.
