Schenker watermakers

What is the difference between the Schenker ZEN and Modular models?

ZEN models are designed for maximum silence and compactness, making them ideal for installations in confined spaces. Modular models offer greater installation flexibility, with the ability to separate the main components (pump, membrane, control unit) to optimize space on board and adapt to different configurations.

How often should I replace the membrane of my Schenker watermaker?

The life of the membrane depends on the frequency of use, the quality of the seawater, and proper maintenance. In general, replacement is recommended every 2-5 years. A significant drop in fresh water production or an increase in salinity are clear signs indicating the need to replace the membrane.

How can I prevent algae formation in my watermaker?

Periodically perform a sanitization cycle with specific watermaker cleaning products, carefully following the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure that the fresh water storage tank is clean and disinfected regularly to prevent the proliferation of algae and bacteria.

What should I do if my Schenker watermaker is not producing water?

First, verify that the electrical power supply is correct and that there are no obstructions in the seawater intake circuit. Also check the condition of the filters and membrane. If the problem persists, contact Nautica Basile technical support for a more in-depth diagnosis.

What is the energy consumption of a Schenker watermaker?

The energy consumption of Schenker watermakers varies depending on the model and production capacity. Low-energy models, such as the Schenker ZEN, can consume as little as 110W, making them particularly suitable for boats with limited electrical generation capacity. Consult the technical specifications of each model to know the exact consumption.
