The AMPAC USA SLR-18 Mobile Solar Water Treatment system is a solar-powered generator with an integrated watermaker built for seawater desalination, converting saltwater into potable water without relying on conventional power sources. It's designed for remote operations, emergency relief, and off-grid living where fresh water access is limited.

  • Handles water with up to 45,000 PPM total dissolved solids
  • Averages approximately 3,000 gallons of purified water per day
  • Runs solely on solar energy
  • First-year cost around 15 cents per gallon, dropping to fractions of a penny after year one

The SLR-18 handles water with up to 45,000 parts per million (PPM) of total dissolved solids, demonstrating its effectiveness on highly saline sources, and averages approximately 3,000 gallons of purified water per day. Because it runs solely on solar power, operational costs stay low: about 15 cents per gallon in the first year including capital and consumables, dropping to fractions of a penny per gallon once that capital outlay is recovered.

Typical applications include disaster relief efforts that need essential drinking water for affected communities, military operations and humanitarian aid requiring self-sufficiency in remote or hostile territories, and off-grid uses such as remote homesteads, research stations, and expedition teams. Its ability to desalinate seawater also extends its use to coastal regions and island communities with limited freshwater sources.

AMPAC USA engineers every component of the SLR-18 to meet rigorous standards for durability and performance in harsh conditions, using high-grade materials and advanced manufacturing processes built for continuous operation and long-term reliability.
