DUO a patented model, the first watermaker world-wide to function with bi-voltage received the highest award for innovation in PACA region (South of France).
It functions at the turn of a switch either on D.C. (12 or 24V) or on A.C. (120, 230 or 400V), as the DUO is an intelligent patented system.

Thanks to this system, the motors operate independently from each other, with neither electric clutch activation nor manual manipulation of the pulleys.
Like all Dessalator products the DUO is 100% reliable and safe. For over six years major shipyards have been including it as a standard fixture and since 2005 the DUO 100® has become indispensable for navigators.
The advantage of the DUO is its “2 in 1” aspect, as if there were two water makers available with the facility to function optimally and logically.
For example: When there is no wind and the engine is running, D.C. power (at 12 or 24V) is available and should be used
(DUO D 60: 370 W, DUO D 100: 600 W).
At anchor, when the power generator is running the water maker can be operated on the A.C. supply (230V).

The low A.C. power consumption (DUO D 60: 370 W, DUO D 100: 600 W at 230 or 400V) leaves a margin for charging the batteries and other uses.
