Integrating a low-voltage motor with an isobaric energy recovery device, the MPE 70 is the world’s first active ERD designed for medium and large SWRO plants. By completely eliminating the risk of rotor overspin, the motor-controlled MPE 70 safely operates at variable and maximum flow rates and reduces membrane feed salinity increases due to mixing. In addition to unprecedented energy efficiency and reliability, the MPE 70 reduces the need for ERD redundancy in larger plants, prevents rotor stops due to biofouling, and facilitates smarter automation and better predictive maintenance. The MPE 70 builds on Danfoss’s proven technology and decades of energy-saving experience.

Lower membrane feed salinity increases due to mixing
Less ERD redundancy required
No more rotor stops due to biofouling
Ready for smarter automation & better predictive maintenance
Easy installation in parallel-coupled trains
Proven technology, now at a larger scale
With no risk of overspin, the MPE 70 operates safely at maximum flow rates and reduces membrane feed salinity increases due to mixing. The resulting system-wide energy efficiency in medium and large SWRO plants is unparalleled by any other ERD.
The low-voltage motor effectively eliminates rotor stops due to biofouling and enables integration of ERD control into the SWRO plant’s automation systems. Electrical data from the ERDs can now be analyzed for predictive maintenance.
Conceived in collaboration with customers and designed specifically for medium and large SWRO plants, the MPE 70 builds on decades of energy-saving experience and technology and is backed by Danfoss’s global sales, logistics, and customer service experts.

MPE 70 selection tool
In addition to best-in-class ERDs, Danfoss also designs the world’s most efficient high-pressure pumps for SWRO.
High-pressure pumps for reverse osmosis applications
The first active ERD for medium and large plants, the MPE 70 integrates highly effective isobaric pressure exchangers with a low-voltage motor to eliminate the risk of rotor overspin, reduce mixing and biofouling, and facilitate smarter automation. Covering train sizes from 1,500 m3/day and above.
The range of high-pressure APP pumps is optimized for both landbased, off-shore and marine sea water reverse osmosis applications. Available with or without motor.
With a 3-in-1 design that integrates highly effective isobaric pressure exchangers with positive displacement booster pumps and electrical motors, active iSave® ERDs deliver big energy savings in small spaces. Covering train sizes from 200-3,000 m3/day
As global demand for lithium, magnesium, and food-grade salt surges, brine mining is emerging as a less environmentally disruptive alternative to conventional mining. But brine valorization is only economically viable if energy use and system complexity are kept in check.Danfoss APP pumps and iSave ERDs form the foundation of ultra-energy-efficient SWRO and OARO systems. They deliver the precise, stable high-pressure performance needed to make brine valorization commercially and environmentally feasible.
Due to high energy efficiency and reliability, Sea Water Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) is one of the most sustainable and cost effective solutions for converting sea water to potable fresh water. Danfoss is committed to supporting the desalination industry with energy efficient SWRO solutions.
