Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The Katadyn PowerSurvivor 40E is the world's smallest electric watermaker, designed for use on boats up to 13 meters or for 1 to 4 people. It utilizes reverse osmosis technology to desalinate seawater, achieving an average salt rejection rate of 98.4%. The device is compact, weighing 11.3 kg, and operates on either 12V or 24V DC power.

Specifications
  • Flow Rate: Approximately 5.7 liters per hour, with a tolerance of +/- 15%.
  • Dimensions: 15.2 cm (H) x 44.5 cm (L) x 40.5 cm (B).
  • Power Requirements: 12 Volt DC / 4 amp or 24 Volt DC / 3 amp.
  • Material: Stainless steel and FDA-approved plastics.
  • Guarantee: 3 years.
  • Approvals: CE certification for 12 Volt motors.

Benefits
  • Compact design saves space and provides comfort on board.
  • High energy efficiency with low current consumption.
  • Manual operation option ensures functionality without electricity.
  • Durable design with a 3-year guarantee.
  • User-friendly installation, operation, and maintenance.

Operation Conditions
The device requires a battery with at least 60Ah/12 V and can be connected to existing sea valves. Adapters are provided.

Optional Kits
  • Silt Reduction Kit: Recommended for waters with high suspended matter, includes a finer prefilter and a booster pump.
  • Preventative Maintenance Kit and Extended Cruise Kit are also available.

Reverse Osmosis Process
Reverse osmosis involves filtering saltwater through a semipermeable membrane, with only 10% of the water passing through to become fresh water. The remaining 90% cleans the membrane, requiring high pressure (normally 55 bar).

Energy Recovery System
Katadyn's patented system recycles energy from high-pressure reject water, reducing energy expenditure by 50-90% and aiding in the next stroke of the piston.

POWER SURVIVOR 40E-1

MAKING WATER DRINKING WATER FACT SHEET KATADYN POWERSURVIVOR 40E* - The world's smallest electric watermaker PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS Technology: Reverse osmosis Salt Rejection: 98.4% on average (90% minimum). The desalination degree depends on factors such as water temperature and salinity Material: Stainless steel, plastics. Membrane approved by the US FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Approvals: CE certification for 1 2 Volt motors Device for greatest convenience with unbeatable advantages (see Benefits). Can be operated both electrically and manually. Ideal for boats up to approx. 1 3 metres or one to four people. Compact and highly durable product which has been put to the test by, e.g., ocean sailors. Optimum pump frequency in manual operation: 30 pumps per minute = almost 3 liters in 30 minutes. Makes boat owners independent of water stations on the coast. Covers entire daily water requirement (drinking, cleaning etc.) of 4 people at an operating time of 4 to 5 hours. By the way: the water requirement is much less on board than on land. PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS > BENEFITS Minimum and compact dimensions > does not waste a cm2 of space, can be put anywhere, produces 5.7 liters of water per hour > brings comfort on board and covers the entire daily water requirement of 4 people High energy efficiency > low current consumption Not an oversized system > fewer water standstill times, lower risk of germs reforming + higher useful life of membrane than with large systems Can be operated manually > not dependent on electricity in an emergency Runs smoothly > does not disturb the enjoyment of being at sea Supply of drinking water independent of location > saves water reserves and costs Tough design > 3 year guarantee Very user-friendly design > simple to install, operate and maintain Does not require additional pump or reserve cleaning systems SHORT PROFILE A desalinator which covers to 4 people or (sailing) boats

FACT SHEET MAKING WATER DRINKING WATER KATADYN POWERSURVIVOR 40E* - The world's smallest electric watermaker REVERSE OSMOSIS To remove dissolved salts from seawater with reverse osmosis, part of the salt water is filtered through a semipermeable membrane. Only 1 0% of the water passes through the membrane. The remaining 90% flow past the membrane and at the same time cleans the membrane (self-cleaning effect). The small size of the "membrane pores" ensures extremely pure drinking water, but extremely high pressures must be generated - normally 55 bar. Reverse osmosis is used worldwide to obtain...
