SETTING UP THE VERSA SEA PAK 200
CHOOSING A SITE
Your water source should be as free of suspended sand, silt, algae etc., as possible for longer
prefilter life. If making water from a bay, lake, or stream choose a location as deep as possi-
ble. Avoid areas with surf or chop. The Versa Sea Pak Feed Pump is capable of lifting the
feed water not more than 10 vertical feet. When setting up the system choose a spot as near
the water as possible, but do not place the case in the water. It is better to run a long exten-
sion cord from your power source than to run long hoses to the feed water source. When
making water on a sand beach a small pit can often be dug in the sand which will fill with clean
water. The water flowing into the pit can be used as feed water and the water will be quite
clean after the system has been running for a short time.
SETTING UP
Note: When connecting the suction hose fittings be sure they are clean and free of
sand or debris so the seals on the fittings are not damaged!
Using the quick connect fittings attach the three hoses; Suction hose with strainer and filter
basket, Brine discharge and product hose.
You can run the system as shown below into a bucket to check operation.
