Caution: Do not over tighten the packing gland. Over tightening will cause premature wear and failure of
the packing and stem.
Important: Over tightening can cause excessive drag, increasing the torque requirement of the valve s
electric motor. Excessive drag resulting in an increased torque requirement will cause the valve motor to
draw high current. When the valve s motor draws high current, the system's Control Logic will force the System
to stop and the touch screen will display an error message.
When the actuator motor starts, it momentarily draws high current (this is normal). Once the motor begins to rotate
(with no restrictions), the current lowers to normal running current. The motor, in turn, rotates the gear box, sensing
POT (potentiometer) and valve stem. If motor movement is blocked or restricted, and does not rotate, it will draw
high current and the sensing POT will not rotate. The System Control Logic receives a high current signal and
ceases to sense POT movement. As a result, the System will stop and the touch screen will display an error
message. To diagnose the restriction, perform the following steps:
1. Check the brass coupling that connects the valve stem and gear box shaft to ensure it allows free movement
and turning.
2. Check for external signs of corrosion or water intrusion into the Actuator housing.
3. Ensure that the Valve Stem packing nut is not over tightened causing friction and resistance.

Brine Discharge and Product Water Flow Meters

The System's electronic flow meters are irreparable. If a flow meter generates inaccurate readings, then it must
be replaced.

Brine Discharge T-Connector

The Brine Discharge T-Connector is irreparable. If it breaks or develops a crack, then it must be replaced.

Brine Discharge Connector

This connector is a 90 degree elbow fitting that attaches to the over board thru-hull fitting for connecting the brine
discharge hose. If it breaks or develops a crack, then it must be replaced.

Multi Media Filter Waste and Brine Discharge Tee

This tee is a 90 degree elbow fitting that attaches to the over board thru-hull fitting for connecting the brine discharge
hose. If it breaks or develops a crack, then it must be replaced.

Thru-Hull Discharge Fitting

Not reparable; if it breaks or develops a crack, then it must be replaced.

Product Water T-Collector

Not reparable; if it breaks or develops a crack, then it must be replaced.

Salinity Probe

The salinity probe requires cleaning when debris builds up on the monel probes. Clean the probes once a year
according to the procedures below.
1. Unscrew the black tube fitting nut (below the probe) to disconnect it from the control manifold.
2. Using a soft bristle brush, scrub the probes to remove any built up debris.
3. Thoroughly dry the probe area.
4. Should the salinity reading become inaccurate, replace the probe.
