c. POSSIBLE CAUSE: DIRTY AND PLUGGED PREFILTER [13 & 14] ELEMENTS.
1) Press Reset Fault Switch to reset and turn off the "High/Low Pressure" Fault Lamp.
2). Start the System
IF The Feed Pump Inlet Compound Vacuum/Pressure Gauge [5] registers normal (near or at 0 [zero] PSI, yet
the Prefilter Inlet Pressure Gauge [12] registers higher than normal while the Prefilter Outlet Pressure Gauge
[16] and Operating Pressure Gauge [18] registers lower than normal this would indicate that the Prefilter
Elements [13 & 14] are dirty and require replacement. The System will shut down when the Prefilter
Elements become so dirty that the Prefilter Inlet Pressure Gauge [12] reaches 190 PSI.

1. Clean the Plankton Filter Element [7].
2. Replace the 25 and 5 micron Prefilter Elements [13 & 14] with new Sea Recovery Prefilter Elements.
WARNING: Do not use third party prefilter elements, use only Sea Recovery Prefilter Elements.
Third party prefilter elements on the market do not properly fit, the seams fall apart,
they will allow by-pass resulting in premature fouling of the R.O. Membrane Element
and this will void the Sea Recovery Warranty.
CAUTION: Do not use "string wound" or "fiber" prefilter elements. These type of elements are
designed for the Photographic Film Developing industry. When used in sea water they
will plug up rapidly in 1/10th or less the time causing frequent shut down of the system
and very frequent changing resulting in very high cost of maintenance and time
consuming frustration.
