How atmospheric water generation works
Air intake
First, the SAWG 28 draws ambient air through the air inlet. Moisture contained within that air then provides the source for potable water production.
Water generation
Next, the system extracts moisture from the incoming air and converts it into collected water for treatment.
Filtration
After that, the water passes through a reusable sediment pre filter and multi stage filtration system. As a result, the system removes material from the collected water before further treatment.
UV C purification
Following filtration, UV C purification provides an additional water treatment stage.
Ozone treatment
In addition, an integrated ozone generator supports ongoing treatment within the system.
Storage and dispensing
Finally, the SAWG 28 stores treated water in its integrated 38 litre tank. Operators can then dispense water through two distribution taps at up to 7.5 litres per minute.
Compact potable water production
The Snowbird SAWG 28 produces approximately 76 litres of potable water per day while maintaining a compact two person carry format. Therefore, it provides a practical option for mobile field operations where access to conventional potable water infrastructure may be limited.
In addition, the system combines water production, treatment, storage and dispensing within one integrated unit. As a result, operators can establish potable water capability without relying entirely on an existing water network.
Filtration and water treatment
The SAWG 28 uses several treatment stages to support potable water production from atmospheric moisture. First, a reusable sediment pre filter removes material from the collected water. Next, multi stage filtration provides further treatment before the water reaches the UV C purification stage.
In addition, the integrated ozone generator supports ongoing water treatment. Finally, the system stores the treated water internally until operators require it for dispensing.
Water storage and dispensing
The SAWG 28 includes 38 litres of internal water storage. Therefore, treated water can remain available within the system after production and purification.
Furthermore, two integrated distribution taps provide direct access to stored water. As a result, operators can dispense treated water at up to 7.5 litres per minute.
