Katadyn 8013438 PowerSurvivor 40E Watermaker 12V


For years, the energy-efficient desalinators from Katadyn have been the preferred solution for supplying drinking water onboard sailboats.

Participants in renowned ocean regattas rely on Katadyn desalinators, as do trans-ocean cruisers.

The Katadyn PowerSurvivor 40E is the world's smallest electrical desalinator.

Simplicity - The 40E contains 40% fewer parts than its popular predecessor, the old PowerSurvivor 35.

Simplified construction and rugged design make the 40E remarkably easy to install, operate and maintain.

Compactness - Extraordinarily compact, the PowerSurvivor 40E can be installed in the nooks and crannies, otherwise unusable in many yachts.

Efficiency - No watermaker draws so few amps. Using only 4 amps, the 40E/12V can run on alternative power alone for extended periods.

Durability - The heart of the 40E is the rugged stainless high-pressure pump.

Armed for the rigours of the marine environment, this watermaker is built to last.

Katadyn's so certain they've covered it with a superior warranty: 3 years on most components.

And note the PowerSurvivor 40E is the only power watermaker that converts to manual operation in emergencies.
