Complete Purasan EX Treatment System - 12V
Raritan Purasan Waste Treatment System is suitable for all marine sanitation needs. The Purasan EX was originally developed for the freshwater lakes in Kentucky as an alternative to the Lectra/San.
This Type IMarine Sanitation Device(MSD) has become increasingly popular with many users in both salt and freshwater. Raritan believes that treating a single flush at the source and discharging into tidal water is far more effective than risking having a holding tank dumped overboard when a pump-out cannot be found or is not functioning. Each user has unique needs when boating and for many a holding tank may be the best solution while some prefer to treat and discharge. There are a few things to consider when choosing aType I MSD.
While Treatment is required inside the three-mile limit there are areas that prohibit discharge from Marine Sanitation Device. The areas that do not allow discharge of any type are calledNo Discharge Zonesand these zones are specific, at this time, to treated black water only. So, any vessel operator or owner should consider the amount of time spent cruising, the areas in which they will be cruising and the availability of pumpouts. Aholding tankshould never be discharged overboard.
The Purasan EX is a flow through system which means that the toilet is connected to the tank and the tank is connected to the thru-hull. With each flush of the toilet the waste enters the tank where a small amount of disinfectant is introduced to neutralize the waste. At the same time an equal amount of treated waste is forced out of the tank and overboard.
Purasan Improvements
The tablets used are very similar to the mixture used in commercial waste water treatment plants. When the toilet flushes a small amount of water is run over the tablets to create a disinfectant that drains into the tank and a high-speed macerator inside the tank breaks down waste and ensures that the disinfectant comes in contact with the waste. This system does require the user to buy tablets to keep the system functioning properly. While the original Purasan remained largely unchanged for a long time the newest version the Purasan EX has added a control that will notify the user when tablets need to be added.
Another improvement in the Purasan EX over the original design is the addition of an air pump that forces the water down into the treatment tank. This makes mounting of the system easier and prevents the tablets from disintegrating too fast. While it was originally designed for just freshwater use and for use with specific toilets it can now be used with almost any marine toilet. The only freshwater required is the water that passes over the tablets. However, toilets can flush with either salt or freshwater.
The Raritan Purasan EX Treatment System is the ideal solution for all marine sanitation needs, designed specifically for both saltwater and freshwater use. Originally developed for Kentucky's lakes, this Type I Marine Sanitation Device (MSD) has gained popularity among boaters seeking a reliable alternative to traditional holding tanks. The Purasan EX effectively treats waste at the source, allowing for safe discharge into tidal waters without the hassle of pumping out a holding tank when facilities are unavailable.
This innovative flow-through system connects the toilet directly to the treatment tank, where a small amount of disinfectant is introduced with each flush. The treated waste is then expelled overboard, ensuring a clean and efficient process. The Purasan EX also includes advanced features, such as a control to notify users when treatment tablets need replenishing and an air pump for improved water flow, making installation easier and enhancing the system's performance. Enjoy peace of mind on the water with the Raritan Purasan EX Treatment System, a trusted name in marine sanitation technology.
