Model PWP-V
DC Powered Water Purification System
The Aqua Sun Model PWP-V is a self-contained, DC powered, water purification system designed for portability, ease of use, and durability. Using the best filtration technology available it produces safe drinking water from most fresh water sources such as rivers, ponds, wells, and lakes. It can be unpacked and operational in less than one minute and can produce 60 gallons (240 liters) per hour. The Model PWP-V operates from a 12-Volt DC power source and requires no chemical additives.
The purification process starts with a sediment filter to clean the water and remove any suspended debris. The water is then sent through a 0.5 micron carbon block filter. This filter cartridge is an excellent water "polishing" filter. It is capable of removing
Giardia Lamblia, Cyst, Cryptosporidium, bad taste, odors, color, chlorine, THMs (trihalalomethanes), certain VOCs (volatile organic compounds), pesticides and many other harmful chemical contaminates. The filtered, "polished" water is then channeled past a ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet light kills bacteria and viruses that can cause diseases such as Typhoid Fever, Dysentery, Cholera, Infectious Jaundice, Hepatitis, Influenza, and Enteric Fever. This process can kill these and many other micro-organisms to a 99.9% kill rate. When this combination of filtration and UV disinfection is used together, clean, safe drinking water can be produced from unpotable water. |
The Model PWP-V operates on 12 volts DC. Power can be obtained from many sources, such as a vehicle battery or DC generator. A cigarette lighter plug and battery cable connectors are provided. When supplied with continuos DC power the system can produce safe, clean water at 60 gallons (240 liters) per hour for extended periods of time.
The system is housed in a durable, space age, lightweight structural plastic carrying case. It is water and air tight for maximum protection of the internal parts. This briefcase style case meets and exceeds the highest standards for industrial, airline, military and commercial applications. It is portable enough to be carried anywhere in the world. It is approved for air shipments inside and outside the continental United States.
