Atlas/Jowa FW-3 is a freshwater generator or watermaker. It is normally installed in the engine room or utility machinery space and connected to seawater intake, product-water, reject or brine and treatment systems. Its purpose is to produce freshwater from seawater for domestic or technical use by the process used in the installed unit. The category does not establish whether this exact model uses evaporation, reverse osmosis or another process, so the treatment principle must be confirmed from the manufacturer documentation. The exact model designation identifies the installed process and capacity.

Service

Service notes.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.

Trend product-water quantity and quality together with relevant pressures, temperatures or vacuum indications for the installed process. Maintain seawater strainers, filters and treatment chemicals or cleaning routines as specified for the unit. Inspect pumps, ejectors, membranes or evaporator surfaces as applicable and investigate any abrupt change in salinity. Clean and preserve the system using only procedures compatible with the installed materials. Verify automatic product-water diversion or rejection arrangements after maintenance. Refer to manufacturer documentation for exact cleaning criteria, water-quality limits and operating conditions.

Spare parts notes

Keep filter elements, seals, gaskets, salinity or conductivity sensor service parts, pump seals and model-specific treatment components. Membrane elements, evaporator plates or ejector nozzles may be strategic spares depending on the actual process and vessel endurance. Confirm exact materials and parts from the unit documentation.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
