AC-2 Drinking Water Microfiltration & Purification Systems for AIRCRAFT
Specified into McDonnell Douglas, Airbus, Boeing, Gulfstream and other leading aircraft, General Ecology's compact, advanced design Versa Pure® water purification and microfiltration systems lead the industry in sophisticated, chemical free water purification.
Configurations are available to meet virtually any installation requirement.
General Ecology, Inc. offers both SAE 37° JIC Flare and MIL SPEC 33514 E6 FLARELESS TUBE CONNECTIONS. Inlet, outlet and vent/drain ports can be mounted in virtually any orientation and we offer two different types of mounting...or no brackets at all if you want to use your own custom mount. Additionally, our latest configuration offers a mounting bracket especially drilled for retrofit upgrades.
Many earlier aircraft galleys and lavatories included GAC (granular activated carbon) taste and odor filters that do not offer the effectiveness and versatility of General Ecology's Versa Pure systems, especially when furnished with our RS-1SG bacteria removal purification cartridge. With little or no modification to the aircraft piping and no drilling required for mounting, Vera Pure systems can be retrofitted in minutes. Bracket hole patterns exactly match those of older systems and the same type of inlet and outlet ports can be specified. Please consult with our aircraft systems engineers for assistance.
Manifold Cover, Bowl, Vee-clamp and Mounting Bracket: Lifetime, heavy-gauge non-corrosive 300 series stainless steel with sanitary finish.
Wing Nut - High temperature thermoset with brass insert.
Gaskets and Seals - FDA accepted elastomers.
Unscrew wing nut, remove Vee-clamp and unthread the expended cartridge.
Insert new cartridge - hand tighten only.
Replace cover and Vee-clamp and hand-tighten wing-nut.
Run about one gallon (4 liters) of water through unit to expel trapped air.
Maximum pressure 125 psi (8.75 kg./cm. - 8.6 Bars).
No asbestos; safely removes or reduces chlorine and other foul tastes and odors including thousands of chlorinated and organic pollutants, amoebic cysts, algae and some colloids.
Vibration resistant, heat resistant per U.S. CFR 121.2536.
U.S. Public Health Service/F.D.A. accepted.
Rated capacity: 3800 gal. (14,000 liters).
The same features as the AL-21SG plus 0.4 micron retention with "Structured Matrix" technology to remove enteric waterborne disease bacteria, Giardia, amoebic cysts, liver flukes, and Cryptosporidia; and to provide even more effective chemical, taste and odor reduction. Approximately 4000 liters nominal capacity at 25 psi inlet pressure. Independently certified to meet USEPA Microbiological Purification Standards.
For pressure, flow, and other characteristics of the AL-21SG and the RS-1SG, please request General Ecology, Inc. specification sheets on product.
AC-2 pressure vessels can be provided with either MS flareless fittings or with SAE 37° flare fittings (Connecting fittings are not included with the MS Flareless units). Mounting is accomplished with an adjustable bracket secured by a band clamp or with a rigid bracket. The long life 2 to 5 micron AL-21-SG cartridge is standard but the 0.4 micron bacteria removing RS-1SG cartridge can also be ordered and used without modification or adapters.
Both flareless and
37° flare fittings are illustrated here.
**Part No. for Cover and Bowl is determined from configuration of unit.
