Fresh, pure water is vital to life aboard any vessel. Now, making it has never been easier with FCI Watermakers' state-of-the-art V4 Controller.

Most watermakers rely on some form of control. What separates FCI Watermakers' unit from the competition is the quality and reliability of its monitor, simplicity of use, depth of standard features and overall technological superiority.

The marine-grade, high resolution touch screen monitor is available in 7" or 4.3" panels. Built for real-world conditions, its high heat tolerance allows it to work in harsh engine room environments. It has type approval certifications from ABS, GL, Lloyd's Register EMEA, Det Norske Veritas and the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping. FCI Watermakers is the only company that provides this degree of accreditation.

Designed to work with its line of innovative watermakers, the V4 Controller's interface is a statement in intuitive design. Users navigate easily through well thought-out, one-touch panels. For operational instructions and advanced procedures, a built-in, on-screen help and troubleshooting menu is readily accessible.

The entire watermaking process is instantly accessible through the multi-lingual controller. Users have a wealth of data, from PSI, flow rates and water temperature to valve position. It can be set for English or metric. The unit allows for complete customization and programming of automated self-maintenance processes. It makes complicated procedures like performing a fresh water flush a breeze.

FCI Watermakers' V4 Controller is the most technologically advanced in the industry. Behind the scenes, the unit is continually monitoring, tracking and recording the watermaking system and process. It is NMEA 2000 compatible with MODBUS communications and has a unique IP address for remote access. Bridge Certified, it is guaranteed to not interfere with other on-board electronics.

Industry leader FCI Watermakers manufactures and programs the V4 Controller's circuit boards in its West Valley, Utah headquarters. The company can modify the software for a complete, custom watermaking solution. It builds a complete line of desalinators and reverse osmosis systems with capacity ranges from 200 to over 265,000 US gallons per day.
