HROSystems Horizon Seafari “Section I” System Troubleshooting Guide I. SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Some system problems have possible causes located in more than one subsystem, and are categorized here according to the subsystem in which they are indicated or most likely to be located. Where two or more possible causes are listed for a problem, it is advised that they be checked in the order listed.
Page 76
HROSystems Horizon Seafari Self Contained and Modular Style HIGH PRESSURE CAUSES: This may be due to pressurizing the System above 950 psi. The High/Low Pressure Fault Lamp illuminates immediately when the High Pressure Switch is OPEN and the system shuts off immediately. Follow the Brine Discharge Line and ensure that there is no kink or blockage in this line.
Page 77
HROSystems Horizon Seafari “Section I” System Troubleshooting Guide D. HIGH PRESSURE GAUGE READING: Use caution in diagnosing the reading of the High Pressure Gauge. If the gauge is reading low it may simply be that the Back Pressure Regulator requires adjustment. However, there may be a problem with the High Pressure Pump or the High Pressure Pump Electric Motor, Back Pressure Regulator Valve, the High Pressure Gauge, or the R.O.
Page 78
HROSystems Horizon Seafari Self Contained and Modular Style E. FLOW METER READINGS: In diagnosing flow meter readings always correlate the reading with both the Brine Discharge Flow Meter reading and the Product Water Flow Meter reading. Consider the Pressure Gauge readings as well. Prior to diagnosing flow meter readings, always check first to ensure that the pressure gauge readings are normal.
Page 79
HROSystems Horizon Seafari “Section I” System Troubleshooting Guide If the operating pressure of 850 psi produces a Product Flow Meter reading below normal this indicates one or more of the following causes: The system Feed Water is at a low temperature; The salinity of the Feed Water is greater than 35,000 ppm (typical Sea Water);...
Page 80
HROSystems Horizon Seafari Self Contained and Modular Style F. PRODUCT WATER QUANTITY AND QUALITY: The R.O. Membrane Element requires a specified amount of Feed Water flow in order to reject impurities. Less than required Feed Water flow causes the R.O. Membrane Element to recover a high percentage of Product Water (ratio of Feed Water to Product Water) and causes the R.O.
HROSystems Horizon Seafari “Section I” System Troubleshooting Guide G. HIGH PRESSURE PUMP: The high-pressure pump is a positive displacement triplex plunger pump. The pump always delivers the normal amount of water flow unless a problem develops within the pump, the pump is being subjected to an extreme vacuum at its inlet, or the RPM from the Electric Motor has changed due to low or high Cycles from the Power Source.
