c. POSSIBLE CAUSE: BLOCKAGE IN THE PREFILTRATION.
1) If the "High/Low Pressure" Fault Lamp is illuminated, Press Reset Fault Switch.
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. This will cause low Feed Water flow and in turn low
Product Water flow. The High Pressure Switch [11] will open causing the System to shut down when the
Prefilter Elements become so dirty that the Prefilter Inlet Pressure Gauge [12] reaches 190 PSI. Correct the
condition as described below:

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.
