SolarUF Ultrafiltration

SolarUF (Ultrafiltration) units purify up to 20.000 litres of water per day using only PV solar energy. The SolarUF unit operates autonomously and safely remove harmful bacteria and viruses from contaminated water. Automatic backflushing and energy management make the system easy to run, low maintenance, and ideal for remote applications.

SolarUF – Purification Systems are perfectly suited for applications where drinking water is needed and no or low infrastructure is available. SolarUF-Purification Systems guarantee a reliable and safe water supply from dirty water sources. They provide an economical and ecological alternative to water transportation by boat or truck. SolarUF-can be used as a standalone solution for direct drinking water production or modular for example as efficient pretreatment for reverse osmosis (RO) units. Typical drinking water applications are:

  • Individual water home systems
  • Hotel and tourist resort applications
  • Rrainwater harvesting
  • Remote settlements or village

Available standard configurations:

Our standard solar or grid-connected UF-systems have a nominal capacity of 250l/h and 1.000l/h.
The UF-purification box UF0.05 is our smallest standard system e.g. for household, piloting or emergency applications.
The UF-purification box has a packed dimension of about 0.8x0.4x0.4m and weights of only 15kg  (grid-type) or 26kg (solar-type).
It produces daily 500 liter of clean water in a 100% solar-driven operation or 1.200 liter when connected to the grid.
