    4. Directions for use: MEMBRANES DELICATE COMPONENTS Reverse osmosis membranes must be carefully maintained as they are the most delicate elements of the system. We recommend that the maintenance instructions are carefully followed to prevent the membranes from damage and to ensure the guarantee is not invalidated. Maximum production capacity of the desalinator is achieved with a sea water temperature of 25°C.

    5. Maintenance: CAUTION: IN FREEZING CONDITIONS, PLEASE EMPTY THE FLOWMETER TUBE ON THE CONTROL PANEL BY DISCONNECTING THE PRODUCTION HOSE AND BLOWING OR INJECTING AIR INTO THE HOSE, PROTECT YOUR MEMBRANES WITH BLANKETS. 5.1. Maintaining the membrane After 1,000 working hours, it is normal that the flow lowers between 10 and 15%. If more, you should think of replacing the membranes.
  • Page 13 5. Maintenance: Manual Flush Next to the pre filter there is a valve. The valve is connected to the fresh water system of the boat and turning it, will automatically start the boat’s water pump and a flow of fresh water from the tank to the watermaker.
  • Page 14: Sterilizing The Membranes

    5. Maintenance: 5.3. STERILIZING THE MEMBRANE When should the membrane be sterilized? Normally, regular monthly rinsing of the membrane may be all that is required to maintain the membrane. If this is not possible, sterilization will be necessary. A sterilisation procedure should be carried out every six months.

  • Page 16: A1: Reverse Osmosis

    APPENDIX – A1 REVERSE OSMOSIS What is the reverse osmosis principle used in your desalinating system? Sea water is forced at high pressure through the membranes which act as “molecular sieves”, only allowing pure fresh water to pass through. Most dissolved solid particles will not penetrate the membrane.
