What are the power/water requirements for the ProtoMAX?

[ProtoMAX Admin]

The ProtoMAX system requires a 240V AC / 30A power source and access to water and a drain. The power requirement is similar to a household clothing dryer and is required to drive the 5 horsepower pump. Check out our Utility Requirements document for more information. Water temperature and quality can impact how well the ProtoMAX runs. While we have successfully tested the ProtoMAX over a wide range of temperatures and water conditions, we offer the following recommendations for optimal operation:

• Temperature: 45 - 80°F

• pH Level: 6.5 – 8.5

• Total Dissolved Solids < 250 ppm

• Calcium < 17ppm

• Magnesium < 6 ppm

• Iron < 0.3 ppm

• Manganese < 0.05 ppm

• Chloride < 100 ppm

• Sulfate < 200 ppm

• Silica < 10 ppm
