Pressurization Components; Brine Discharge Components - Sea Recovery SRC Aqua Matic 700-1 Owner's Manual

Pressurization Components

The Pressurization section of your Aqua Matic RO Desalination System provides the necessary pressure to force
the Product Water through the RO Membrane Element.
1. High Pressure Pump and Motor Assembly
A positive-displacement Plunger Pump made of high-grade, stainless steel material. It is specifically designed
for sea-water reverse-osmosis applications.
2. High Pressure Hose, HP Pump Outlet to RO Membrane Element, and Vessel Assembly Inlet
Transfers pressurized sea water from the High Pressure Pump to the RO Membrane Element inlet.
3. RO Membrane Element and Vessel #1
The RO Membrane Element allows potable water molecules to pass through, while rejecting salt ions. Depending
on your System model, 7-28% of the seawater feed water will become freshwater. The remaining feed water
transports the rejected salt ions out of the RO Membrane Element (in a concentrated brine stream). Note that
your Aqua Matic RO Desalination System may have one or two RO Membrane Element(s) and Vessel(s) in
series, depending on your specific model and System capacity.
4. RO Membrane Element and Vessel #2
Connected in series with the first RO Membrane Element and Vessel. The Sea Recovery R.O. System will have
either one or two RO Membrane Element and Vessel depending on the model. The 2nd RO Membrane Element
and Vessel may be added at any time to a system with only one. Adding the 2nd RO Membrane Element and
Vessel will double the System s production.
5. High Pressure Hose / RO Membrane Element and Vessel Assembly Outlet to High Pressure Manifold
Inlet
6. High Pressure Transducer
Measures the System operating pressure from the outlet of the High Pressure Pump to the RO Membrane
Element(s) and Vessel(s).
7. Back Pressure Regulator
Controls the System operating pressure applied to the RO Membrane Element(s).
8. High Pressure Manifold
Connects the High Pressure Hose, High Pressure Transducer, High Pressure Gauge and Back Pressure
Regulator.

Brine Discharge Components

The Brine Discharge section carries the Brine Discharge water (exiting from the RO Membrane Element) back to
the feed source.
1. Brine Discharge Flow Meter
Measures the brine water flowrate from the RO Membrane Element in gallons or liters per hour. By adding the
amount of Product Water flow to the Brine Discharge flow, the operator can determine the total Feed Water
flow.
2. Brine Discharge T-Connector
Collects the Brine Discharge water and unpotable Product Water.
3. Brine Discharge Connector
Attaches to the overboard thru-hull fitting for connecting to the Brine Discharge Hose.
4. Multi Media Filter Waste T"
A component that is included with the optional Multi Media Filter. The Waste T is installed within the line (at the
Brine Discharge fitting) for the purpose of discharging (1) waste from the Multi Media Filter (during backwash
and rinse operations), and (2) Brine Water from the System.
5. Thru Hull Brine Discharge Fitting
To be provided by the Installer. This fitting must be installed above water level for Brine Water discharge from
the system.
