A. MODULAR SYSTEM INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT MOUNTING:
All mounting surfaces must be flat in order to avoid warping of brackets and frames. Any damage caused by
attaching the system or its components to an uneven surface is attributed to improper installation, is the liability
of the installer, and is not covered by the Sea Recovery warranty. Grind flat or use appropriate shims on uneven
surfaces to ensure that mounting of the system components does not cause bending or warping.
Do not connect the water lines or electrical lines to the various components until each of the components are in
place and secure. After all components are in place and secure visually inspect the layout to ensure that the
plumbing hoses and tubes will connect kink free, in short and straight segments, and will avoid heat and
abrasions from surrounding surfaces.
1. Attach the supplied Inlet Connection [3] to the Sea Cock Valve and rotate it towards the
location of the Inline Vacuum/Pressure Gauge [4] if used, or Sea Strainer [5] Inlet.
2. Allow sufficient space between the Inlet Connection [3] and Sea Strainer [5] for the Inline
Vacuum/Pressure Gauge [4], if used.
3. The Sea Strainer [5] is mounted to a flat vertical surface, below water level, after the Inlet
Connection [3], or Inline Vacuum/Pressure Gauge [4] if used. Allow clearance above the bowl to
access the mesh screen for cleaning or replacement.
4. The Rinse Clean Inlet Valve [54] is mounted below water level after the Sea Strainer [5].
Allow access for the operator to reach and turn the valve handles.
5. Allow sufficient space between the Sea Strainer [5] outlet or if used the Rinse Clean Inlet
Valve [54] and or Inline Vacuum/Pressure Gauge [6], if used, or Booster Pump Inlet [7].
6. The Booster Pump [7] is mounted to a flat horizontal surface using the 4 supplied #10 x 1
1/4" long Type "A" screws. The Booster Pump is mounted below water level to assist
priming, and in an accessible location to allow access for maintenance. Keep the Booster
Pump close to the Inlet Thru Hull Connection [3], Sea Strainer [5], Rinse/Clean Inlet
Valve [54] if used, and Inline Vacuum/Pressure Gauge [6] if used. If the Booster Pump
is mounted Vertical place the Pump Head at the
bottom and the electric motor at the top. WARNING: If the pump head is above the electric motor salt water
damage to the electric motor will occur when the pump seal weeps or leaks.
