Commissioning a New System

New System Start-up Procedures

1.
Ensure that the installation has been properly performed.
2.
Ensure that the tube-shipping plug has been removed from the potable water outlet port of the Water
Control Manifold (Compact System) or from the RO Membrane/Vessel Product Water Port (Modular System)
and that all 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch product water tubes are connected.
3.
Check the RO Membrane Element as described below.
Note: Some systems are shipped WITHOUT the RO Membrane Element. This is to accommodate, for
example, boat builders who install the system well in advance of commissioning the boat and the Sea
Recovery System.
If the RO Membrane Element has been installed, there will be an Element Serial Number tag attached to the
RO Membrane/Vessel Assembly. Find this serial number tag to ensure that the RO Membrane Element has
been installed.
If the RO Membrane Element Serial Number tag is missing or does not contain a serial number and date, then
immediately contact the company that sold the system to you or Sea Recovery. Provide Sea Recovery with the
system serial number and model number of this Ultra Whisper System.
Caution: DO NOT attempt to operate the system without a RO Membrane Element installed in the system,
as extensive damage will result.
4.
Ensure that the manual bypass lever located on the side of the 3-Way Product Water Solenoid Diversion
Valve is positioned outward (away from the coil body).
5.
Check each hose and tube connection to the system to ensure that the installer has properly connected
and routed each hose and tube. Ensure that there are no kinks or blockages in any of the hoses or
tubes leading to and from the Ultra Whisper System. Improper routing and any blockage in any line
causes damage to the system. Do not rely on the installer's word; check it yourself.
Make sure that the electrical power source, the boat's circuit breaker, to the system is switched "OFF."
6.
7.
Open the front panel of the Main Power Enclosure. Check all electrical and electronic connections for
proper wiring and attachment.
8.
Ensure that the installer has used the proper-sized power wire and Feed Pump wire.
9.
Close the Main Power Enclosure front panel.
10.
Open the Sea Cock Valve.
11.
Open any auxiliary valve within the incoming feed line, Outgoing Brine Discharge Line and Outgoing
Product Water Line.
Caution: Any auxiliary valve in the Feed, Product, and Brine lines damages the Sea Recovery System if left
closed during starting and/or operation of the system.
12.
If the optional Clean Rinse Valves are installed, ensure that they are positioned properly for normal
operation.
Switch the electrical power source to the "ON" position, the boat's circuit breaker.
