Quality desalinators (water makers) from Western Australia. High-quality, state of the art, reverse-osmosis desalination units that produce fresh drinking water, conforming to World Health Organisations Standards from sea water, brackish water, well water, etc. The water produced by a CITOR Desalinators will be of better quality than water obtained via major metropolitan water supplies.
Solar Power Indonesia are sole agents in Indonesia for CITOR which is an Australian owned company specialising in the design and manufacture of water treatment systems and desalination equipment.
 Located
in Perth, Western Australia, Citor manufactures reverse osmosis systems used to produce fresh drinking water from brackish and seawater sources. They make a range of seawater desalination systems for use on all types of vessels, yachts and islands. Solar Power Indonesia and CITOR can customise systems to meet your requirements, particularly for use on islands where tides, heights, distances and weather conditions have to be considered.
CITOR has supplied systems to every state in Australia and are an approved supplier of water purification equipment to government agencies in Australia. Water generation products have been exported to many countries including Indonesia, Singapore, New Zealand, Fiji, Middle East, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Brunei, Africa, Mauritius, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Philippines, Afghanistan and Iraq.
 CITOR
Desalinators are easy to operate and relatively simple in design, some mechanical knowledge is helpful. Therefore, minimal instruction is necessary. All desalinators are fitted with Industry-standard safety features eg. low feed pressure, cut-out switch & electrical overload devices. These desalinators are relatively inexpensive, as approximately 95% of the running costs will be the cost for electricity used.
Fresh drinking water for your home?... CITOR manufacture desalinators for domestic use, however not the under-the-sink, small capacity units. CITOR also manufacture desalinators suitable for brackish water and desalinators for mains or low salinity water, also high purity applications. We can also offer UV Sterilizers as well as other accessories.Salt Water Island Systems
Service depends on the amount of duty (or usage) of your desalinator i.e. if your desalinator is constantly in use - we recommend that you service (check pump oil, filters etc) your desalinator each week (2 hours). All CITOR Desalinators and items included with the Desalinators are covered by a warranty period of twelve (12) months.
What is Osmosis?
Osmosis is a natural process discovered more than 200 years ago and is common in many plant and animal membranes.
 Osmosis
can be defined as the spontaneous flow of a liquid from a dilute solution to a highly concentrated solution through a semi- permeable membrane which allows the passage of solvent but not that of dissolved substances. In the case of aqueous
solutions, water flows from one side of the membrane to the other until a differential pressure is built up which prevents a further flow of water. The pressure which has been reached is equal to the osmotic pressure of the concentrated solution.
Osmosis is a reversible process. If the concentrated solution is subjected to an external pressure which is higher than the osmotic pressure, the water flows in the opposite direction. This represents reverse osmosis. In this way, pure water can be expelled from an aqueous solution by mechanical work. Reverse Osmosis. Large areas of synthetic sheet membrane are wrapped in a spiral and inserted in a pressure housing - this is called a membrane module.
Water is pumped into the module of a fixed rate and pressure. A percentage of the volume passes through the membrane and is collected as fresh water - the remaining water flowing over the membrane surface, carries the excess salts, and impurities to waste. This action prevents the membrane surface from fouling.
