Versa Pure® AC-2 Aircraft Drinking Water Systems

General Ecology, Inc. produces the broadest range of aircraft drinking water systems and replacement cartridges in the industry.

Specified into McDonnell Douglas, Airbus, Boeing, Gulfstream and other leading aircraft, General Ecology's compact, advanced design Versa Pure® microfiltration systems lead the industry.

Configurations are available to meet virtually any installation requirement.

General Ecology, Inc. offers both SAE 37° JIC Flare and MIL SPEC 33514 E6 FLARELESS TUBE CONNECTIONS. Inlet, outlet and vent/drain ports can be mounted in virtually any orientation and we offer two different types of mounting...or no brackets at all if you want to use your own custom mount. Additionally, our latest configuration offers a mounting bracket especially drilled for retrofit upgrades.

Many earlier aircraft galleys and lavatories included GAC (granular activated carbon) taste and odor filters that do not offer the effectiveness and versatility of General Ecology's Versa Pure systems, especially when furnished with our RS-1SG bacteria removal purification cartridge. With little or no modification to the aircraft piping and no drilling required for mounting, Versa Pure systems can be retrofitted in minutes. Bracket hole patterns exactly match those of older systems and the same type of inlet and outlet ports can be specified. Please consult with our aircraft systems engineers for assistance.

THREE CARTRIDGES TO CHOOSE FROM:

RS-1SG PURIFICATION CARTRIDGE

  • This cartridge provides our most effective removal of chlorine, foul tastes, foul odors and specific chemical pollutants. Rated at 0.1 micron retention (0.4 micron absolute) it is independently certified to meet the USEPA standard for microbiological purifiers by removing all three classes of pathogens: parasitic cysts, disease causing bacteria and viruses. Importantly it is non-chemical and does not rely on adding chemicals to the water. (Not intended to control scale.) Nominal Capacity: 1,000 Gallons (3,800 Liters). pn 778000

AL-21SG CARTRIDGE

  • Safely and effectively removes chlorine and most tank foul tastes and odors. 2 to 5 micron retention. (Not intended to control scale or remove microbiological agents.)Nominal Capacity: 3,800 Gallons (14,000 Liters). pn770006
AL-21SG-SC CARTRIDGE
  • Provides a combination of important features. At 0.5 micron retention (1 micron absolute), it removes three broad types of troublesome water problems: 1-chlorine, many other foul tastes and odors, tank taste and specific organic chemical pollutants such as trace pesticides; 2- pathogenic parasites such as cryptosporidia, giardia, amoebic cysts and liver flukes, and 3- Scale and mineral formation are reduced and/or removed - reducing expensive maintenance of coffee makers and other equipment. (Not intended to remove bacteria or viruses). Nominal Capacity: 2,000 Gallons (7,500 Liters). pn 770050




 

AC-2 pressure vessels can be provided with either MS flareless fittings or with SAE 37° flare fittings (Connecting fittings are not included with the MS Flareless units). Mounting is accomplished with an adjustable bracket secured by a band clamp or with a rigid welded bracket.
