Landbased Products
The LB 4000 is an extremely energy efficient reverse osmosis desalination plant designed for stationary or industrial applications. The LB 4000 can treat high salinity brackish water using just a fraction of the energy of conventional small plants The LB 4000 unit is supplied as a modular kit to be installed in an existing building. There are three main components, the Pearson Pump membrane module, the gauge-flow meter panel and an electrical control box. Using simple analog monitoring and controls, these economical units are perfectly suited to remote applications that require the ultimate in reliability and efficiency. In fact, the Spectra LB machines are so efficient, they are often powered from renewable energy.
The Spectra Pearson Pump is a breakthrough pump design. This unique high pressure pump combines feed stream pumping and energy recovery into a single unit. The "Energy Recovery" feature of the Pearson Pump takes the energy entrained in the brine reject stream from the RO membranes and recaptures it, dramatically increasing the overall efficiency. The system does not require continuous monitoring and pressure adjustment as it stays inherently in balance at all times, providing a constant product flow and recovery ratio. The product flow can be controlled via the variable speed drive to the motor. Having a fixed recovery ratio is critical for brackish water applications as it prevents operators from tampering with the recovery ratios and damaging the membranes.
The Spectra Pearson Pump is manufactured from engineered composites and super duplex stainless steel for extreme corrosion resistance.
