Newport Series AquaFlex System
Easy to Use, Easy to Install and Long Reliable Service
Spectra's Newport Aqua Flex Systems are an incredible value. The Newport features
simplified plug and play installation, flexible mounting options, and ease
of operation.
The MPC 3000 electronic controller and a wide range of operating voltages are the key to the unique
Newport Aqua Flex System. Designed with easy installation in mind for
the professional installer as well as the do-it-yourself boat owner, system
modules are pre-plumbed and pre-wired to save time and money.
The Newport System can be mounted in a number of different configurations to meet
the needs of almost any vessel
while the feed water pump module may be mounted on a bulkhead or on a
shelf either vertically or horizontally. The Spectra High-Pressure Intensifier
and membrane module are integrated into a single compact assembly for
ease of installation.
Using the Spectra High-Pressure Intensifier technology, Spectra Watermakers
has developed a module that is ultra quiet and produces 400 gallons, 700
gallons, or 1000 gallons of water per day using a 1/3, 1/2, or 3/4 horsepower
motor respectively. Other watermaker systems require 3 to 5 horsepower
and two feed water pumps to produce the same amount of water.
New Spectra Technology
Along with its superior efficiency the Spectra High-Pressure Intensifier
maintains the proper pressures in the membrane throughout a wide range
of ocean temperatures and water conditions without any adjustments or
loss of product water output. The composite construction is corrosion
resistant for superior reliability. No more trips to the engine room to
adjust the watermaker. In fact, there are no flow control valves, pressure
or flow gauges to adjust. With the MPC-3000 Electronic Controller, just set the desired run time and forget
it. The MPC-3000 controller will do the rest. MPC-3000 Controller Simple
one button operation. All Newport 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 watermaker also works without
the MPC-3000 electronic control.
Just set it and forget it!
The MPC 3000 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-3000 touch pad sets
the Catalina 300 in motion. Reject water is automatically diverted back
to the ocean by the MPC 3000 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 Catalina 300 in a fresh water
storage state for as long as you like.
Leaving the vessel for a while?
Just press the Auto-Store button and the MPC 3000 controller will do an
automatic flush every 5 days. No more worries about messy storage chemicals.
And when you return to your vessel, your system is ready to start up and go.
Z-Brane™ keeps your system clean without chemicals.
Top off your Spectra system with the new Z-Brane™. This revolutionary technology
keeps Ventura 150 clean and free of bio-fouling and scaling. Cleaning
with chemicals substantially shortens the usable life of reverse osmosis
membranes. The Z-Brane™ eliminates the need for harsh chemicals used
to clean and store your watermaker.
