holes. 
 

The  electrical  installation  should  only  be  done  by  a  professional  electrician.    Check  the  correct 
voltage before installing the system.   

 
The cable labeled with the system’s voltage and frequency is to be connected to the power supply.  The 
cable  marked  “FEED  PUMP”  is  to  be  connected  to  the  feed  pump  or  should  be  insulated  /  removed 
where pressurized seawater is available.

 

 

 

SEAWATER FEED PUMP (Optional Equipment) 

 

Mount the feed pump in a dry location below the waterline of the vessel. Connect the intake of the feed 
pump  with  the  vessel’s  sea  strainer.  Connect  the  outlet  of  the  feed  pump  with  the  intake  of  the 
desalination system located at the pre-filter assembly.  Secure all hoses with the supplied hose clamps.

Connect  the  outlet  of  the  pressure  control  valve  on  the  back  of  the  flow  control  panel  with  the  1/2” 
reinforced PVC hose to a thru hull fitting preferably above the waterline or drain of your choice. 
 
 

FRESH WATER FLUSH KIT 

 

Install the fresh water flush filter housing at a location near to the desalination system.  Connect the flush 
port of the three-way service valve at the pre-filter assembly of the desalination system with the outlet of 
the flush filter housing marked “OUT”.  Supply pressurized fresh water to the shut off valve of the fresh
