Product catalog summary
Introduction
Grundfos AQpure is an ultrafiltration-based water treatment system designed for onsite treatment of various raw water sources, including surface water, groundwater, and rainwater. It is particularly suited for remote areas with limited technical capabilities and fluctuating water quality and demand.
Applications
Typical applications include public water points, water kiosks with AQtap water ATMs for revenue collection, and water bottling stations for emergencies. The system is adaptable for off-grid communities using solar power.
Modular Design
The AQpure system is modular, allowing customization based on raw water quality. The configuration involves a three-step process: identifying water category, selecting from 10 standard modules, and adding optional modules for specific needs.
Water Quality Parameters
The system categorizes water into four types: Blue, Green, Brown, and Orange, each with specific parameters for turbidity, TSS, DOC, and other factors. Modules include self-cleaning prefilters, standard UF, air scouring, chlorination, and more.
System Features
AQpure offers minimal downtime and optimal reliability with features like self-adaptive control, remote monitoring, and solar powering. It ensures consistent water quality with high bacteria elimination and extended service intervals.
Case Studies
In Southern Thailand, AQpure systems provide drinking water to 15 villages, serving around 5,000 people per unit. In Brazil, SABESP uses AQpure to overcome water quality variations in Barrio Caçula, reducing operational costs and ensuring stable water supply.
Technical Specifications
The system produces up to 2 m³/h of water, using PVDF hollow fibre membranes with a pore size of 0.03 µm. It operates with a power supply of 200-240 V and features a PLC-based touchscreen interface.
Sustainability and Partnerships
Grundfos Lifelink focuses on sustainable water solutions through partnerships, enabling funding, advising on business models, and providing technology and support. The solutions are tailored to the developing world, integrating innovative technology and mobile connectivity.
