English Thank you for purchasing the Katadyn Survivor 06 desalinator. It was designed and built to rigorous specifications by Katadyn Products Inc., to provide fresh water in emergency situ ations. Please before operating the Survivor, take the short time needed to read this Manual.
The Survivor 06 is the smallest hand operated watermaker worldwide, able to produce over 6 gal lons (~21 liters) of potable water per day from seawater. A semipermeable membrane inside the unit acts as a molecular filter. When seawater is pressur ized to 800 psi (~55 bar) by pumping the handle and forced against the membrane, only the water molecules can pass through: salt molecules are unable to pass, and flow out of the system.
1. Pull the black intake strainer (and attached double hose) from its storage space inside the handle. Lower the strainer into the seawater, making sure it will be fully submerged to keep air from getting into the hose. 2. For now, position the (smaller) freshwater hose so water coming from it will also drain over board.
