MPC-5000 Controller

Simple one button operation

All Ventura 150 functions are displayed in a 5.25" x 3.75" control display panel located in a convenient space of your choosing away from the watermaker. Multiple control display panels can be added for even more monitoring convenience.The electrical control box has a built-in manual override so the watermak- er also works without the MPC-5000 electronic control.

Just set it and forget it!

MPC-5000 displays the pre-filter condition, feed water pressure, water tank full status (with optional tank switch), product water quality, flow rate and total system hours. One touch to the MPC-5000 touch pad sets the Ventura 150 in motion. Reject water is automatically diverted back to the ocean by the MPC-5000 controller, the desired amount of water fills the storage tanks, the system flushes itself clean and shuts itself off. You can set the controller to keep your Ventura 150 in a fresh water storage state for as long as you like.

150 specifications

The Spectra Watermakers 150 is a cutting-edge desalination system designed to provide reliable and efficient freshwater production for marine and remote applications. With a focus on sustainability and optimal performance, the Spectra 150 is perfect for those who need a dependable source of potable water, whether on a yacht, at a remote campsite, or in emergency situations.

One of the standout features of the Spectra 150 is its energy-efficient technology. Unlike traditional desalination systems that require high amounts of energy, the Spectra Watermakers utilize a unique energy recovery system that significantly reduces power consumption. This makes it an ideal choice for users relying on renewable energy sources such as solar panels or wind turbines.

The Spectra 150 operates using reverse osmosis, a process that forces seawater through a semipermeable membrane, effectively removing salts and impurities to produce fresh water. With a production rate of up to 6 gallons per hour, it strikes a perfect balance between capacity and efficiency. This level of output is particularly advantageous for small vessels, providing users with a continuous supply of freshwater without the need for frequent refills from shore sources.

In terms of user-friendliness, the Spectra 150 is equipped with an intuitive control panel that allows for easy operation and monitoring. The system includes built-in automation features, which reduce the need for constant oversight, while also providing alerts for maintenance requirements. This ease of use is especially beneficial for individuals who may not have extensive experience with desalination technology.

Durability and adaptability are also key characteristics of the Spectra Watermakers 150. It is designed to withstand the harsh conditions commonly found in marine environments. With high-quality materials and robust construction, users can rely on this system for long-term performance without the worry of corrosion or wear.

Overall, the Spectra Watermakers 150 combines innovative technology, efficient water production, and user-centric design. Whether for recreational boating, offshore living, or emergency preparedness, it offers a practical solution for converting seawater into fresh, drinkable water, making it an invaluable asset for anyone in need of consistent water supply. Its combination of efficiency and reliability makes it a top contender in the desalination market.
