INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS HIGH PRESSURE PUMP UNIT Mount the high pressure pump unit in a cool and dry location, not higher than 30ft above low water level at a distance not further than 100ft / 30m. The electrical installation should only be done by a professional electrician. Check the correct voltage before installing the system.
SEAWATER FEED PUMP AND PRIMING RESERVOIR With the aid of the priming reservoir, the feed pump is able to prime the raw water up to a height of 9ft. Mount the feed pump in a dry location not higher than 9ft above low water level. Mount the priming reservoir with the outlet (lower connection) at the same level as the intake of the feed pump in a dark location (inhibits growth of algae).
SYSTEM OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS The reverse osmosis membrane contains a preservative solution to prevent microbiological growth. If ingested, may cause irritation of the gastro-intestinal tract, colic, diarrhea, or other similar symptoms. Therefore, discard all the product water for at least thirty minutes of initial operation or after storage before drinking or use in food preparations! Do not operate the system using contaminated feed water sources (oil, chlorine or other chemicals).
FRESH WATER FLUSH PROCEDURE You should fresh water flush your watermaker after every use or infuse a biocide solution for long term storage. The fresh water flush prepares your watermaker for a shut down period of seven days maximum. You can repeat the flush procedure every seven days, to extend the short term storage. Open the pressure control-valve all the way counter-clockwise.
MEMBRANE CLEANING PROCEDURE The membranes of the ECHO Tec. Watermaker must be chemically cleaned when the product water output drops by 20% of the specified amount. The frequency of this occurring will vary greatly depending upon feed water. Fouling of the membranes will naturally occur during normal usage of the ECHO Tec.
MAINTENANCE TIMETABLE The following maintenance timetable is an estimate of the time intervals at which maintenance may be required only. This schedule must be adjusted to the regularity of usage, the condition of the intake water, the length of time the system is exposed to seawater and the total running time following each system cleaning.
