PURPOSE OF THE KIT
The Repair Seal Kit should be installed after 1000 hours of operation. It should be installed regardless of whether
there is leakage or a reduction of fresh water. Learning to perform this procedure will ensure optimal performance
of your watermaker.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: See Fig. A-2 for an overall view of the Pump Assembly.
Over time, the dynamic Seals and O-rings in the PowerSurvivor 40E will wear. The Repair Seal Kit contains the
major seals and O-rings that should be replaced to improve operating efficiency. It also contains new check valve
poppets, springs, and drive oil which should be replaced simultaneously. This Repair Seal Kit should be installed
after roughly 1000 hours of operation. It should be installed regardless of whether there is leakage or a reduction
of fresh water. Learning to perform this procedure will help users ensure optimal performance.
Before beginning the Repair Seal Kit procedure, note the following precaution:
1. Keep the work area clean and clear of dirt, hair, and other contaminants.
2. Avoid scratching Pump Components when removing or replacing O-rings.
3. All seals and O-rings should be lubricated with silicone grease. Never use petroleum-based lubricants
as a substitute.
4. When installing O-rings, do not roll or twist them.
NOTE: Average time to replace all seals is 1 hour. If you are performing this maintenance for the first time, expect
it to take 3 hours.

- Page 2 DISASSEMBLY 1. Before beginning disassembly, run the watermaker and stop it when the piston shaft is at its farthest point of travel away from the pump (i.e., toward the drive assembly). This provides enough room for sliding the rubber boot toward the pump in Step 2.
- Page 3 After the reject poppet valve and its seat have been removed, retrieve the reject poppet valve spring from the bottom of the check valve plate cavity. This completes the disassembly of all user- serviceable parts of the Katadyn PowerSurvivor 40E Watermaker.
- Page 4 REASSEMBLY: Before you begin reassembly of the watermaker, clean all parts using clean, lint-free rags. At this time, all parts should be carefully inspected for wear or damage. Use a 10x magnifier or loupe to examine the seals, O-rings, and other small parts. Stubborn rust stains and other deposits on metal parts can be cleaned with a soft-metal wire brush (e.g., stainless steel or brass).
- Page 5 3. Lightly lubricate the cylinder in the pump body with silicon grease. Slide the finished piston assembly, shaft first, into the pump body from the side of the pump body that faces the check valve plate. Install the large O- ring (8012588) into its groove in the pump back plate and lower the pump back plate over the piston shaft.
- Page 6 Replace the two large O-rings (8012947) and the two smaller O-rings (8013006) on the membrane tube plug with new O-rings from the RSK. Insert the small end of the membrane tube plug into the exposed hole in the membrane element (which should have been left installed in the membrane housing) and press the tube plug into the membrane housing as far as it will go.

Page 7: Membrane Replacement
MEMBRANE REPLACEMENT NOTE: Run the system for a short time with the cleaning valve open to relieve internal pressure. This will ensure that the spring clamp can be easily removed in step 2 below. 1. If the End Cap has the freshwater product hose attached, remove the hose (see Figure 1). - Page 8 5. Install the new quad seal (8013147) on the end of the membrane element farthest from the freshwater product output (the end where the seawater enters Membrane) (see Figure 4). NOTE: Only one end of the membrane element gets a new quad seal.
