SPX Global delivers 325 solar powered water systems to Iraq

The 325 SPX Tracker UF (ultra filtration) system can purify 1.8 million gallons of surface water per day and can meet the basic fresh water needs of over 300 000 Iraqis.

The SPX Tracker UF is a trailer mounted ultra filtration system which is self contained and fully powered through a solar tracking system. The system design incorporates a nine stage filtration process and ultra violet (UV) sterilization, producing water with turbidity below 0.5 NTU and 99.9% free of bacteria. The UF portion of the system integrates a seven stage filtration unit and two stage pump pre-filtration to reduce suspended solids down to the .02 micron level. The system incorporates screen, media, membrane and gravel pack technologies with fully automated flushing and backwash systems.
