Echotec Watermakers Service Montenegro & Albania
Marine Project provides expert Echotec watermaker services, diagnostic repairs, and routine maintenance across Montenegro and the Adriatic, directly resolving low water production, feed pump leaks, and pressure fluctuations at your berth or yard. Our skilled marine technicians perform prompt dockside support for belt-driven, engine-driven, and AC/DC driven Echotec desalination systems, executing membrane cleaning and replacement, high-pressure pump seal and valve servicing, feed pump impeller and mechanical seal inspection, and electronic control unit recalibration using Echotec-specific diagnostic tools and genuine service kits.
We carry a full inventory of Echotec components including membranes, pressure vessels, seals, and sensors, enabling most interventions to be completed within a single mobilization without unit removal or workshop transport. This mobile approach reduces system downtime and eliminates logistics costs, while our commissioning protocols verify product water TDS below 500 ppm, operating pressure stability, and fully automated start/stop cycling to factory specifications. Each service includes a detailed performance curve, component wear assessment, and a preventive maintenance schedule for pre-filter changes, membrane flushing, and feed pump servicing. Schedule an Echotec system audit and our team will provide a diagnostic report and fixed-price repair quote within 48 hours of onboard inspection.
Specialized Service Capabilities:
We provide expert Echotec watermaker services across Montenegro’s marinas, including preventive maintenance, diagnostics, and system optimization, with all work carried out at costs up to 30% lower than in other major refit centres. Our certified technicians work on all Echotec models—belt-driven, direct-electric, and modular configurations—ensuring efficient water production and energy-saving operation, using genuine components and manufacturer-approved service methods .
-
Installation & System Configuration: Expert setup and flow calibration for belt-driven, direct-electric, and modular Echotec watermakers; we evaluate vessel layout for secure mounting of pre-filters, high-pressure pump, and membrane housings, connect seawater intake and product water lines, and verify ventilation and protection from moisture to ensure reliable operation in tight spaces .
-
System Diagnostics & Troubleshooting: Isolating high-pressure relief valve failures, feed pump leaks, and pressure drops quickly; we check pressure gauge readings against normal operating ranges (low pressure indicates clogged pre-filters or worn pumps, high pressure signals fouled membranes or blocked brine lines) and perform leak detection across all hose connections and fittings .
-
RO Membrane Flushing & Cleaning: Chemical descaling (CIP) using acid and alkaline cleaning compounds when production or salt rejection decreases by 15%, plus biological preservation flushing for storage periods; we perform membrane element replacements with genuine Echotec components to restore maximum water purity and flow, following the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning intervals of every 6–12 months depending on usage and feed water quality .
-
Pump & Drive Belt Servicing: Overhauling heavy-duty triplex plunger pumps (Speck or similar) by replacing plunger seals, valve seats, and piston sets, changing drive belts and pulleys on belt-driven systems, and testing electric drive motors for winding integrity and bearing condition; we also perform gear oil changes—initial after 50 hours, then every 500 hours—using ISO VG 220 or SAE 90 oil to protect the pump .
-
Control Unit & Valve Calibration: Calibrating manual pressure regulators to maintain optimal operating pressures (typically 800–1000 psig), fine-tuning salinity monitors with conductivity meters to verify TDS rejection above 99%, and programming automatic fresh water flush circuits to prevent salt build-up and biological growth after each use .
