Models, Capacity & Selection

Blue Water states that the Legend range is expandable up to 1,850 GPD and uses common pump and motor architecture across the series, supporting configuration and capacity planning within the range.

Why This Matters Onboard

For yacht engineers, the main distinction of the Legend series is the level of automation. The controller collects operating data and presents system information through the touchscreen, reducing the amount of manual intervention required during normal operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose LGD 950-1 or LGD 950-2 if I need the same amount of water?

Both are rated at 40 gallons per hour. The 950-1 uses one membrane and weighs 185 lb; the 950-2 uses two and weighs 200 lb, so compare the installation drawings rather than expecting more output from the second membrane.

Can I increase a Legend’s output later without buying another complete system?

Blue Water describes the Legend range as upgradeable and says the models share pump and motor assemblies. Have the upgrade specified for your existing model; that statement does not identify every part needed for a particular installation.

When should I consider Legend LX instead of Legend?

Legend reaches 1,850 GPD, while Legend LX begins at 2,100 GPD. If your required output exceeds the Legend range, compare LX models and their larger feed-water and electrical requirements before selecting a system.
