Flow Alert:
The Flow Alert feature monitors seawater flow through the ClearCell. This feature allows the user to set a minimum flow rate threshold value and time
duration. If the seawater flow rate drops below a minimum value for a period of time, then “Flow Alert” will appear on the display (no audible alert).
This feature notifies the user that some part of the seawater circuit such as the intake, strainer, pump, or internal screen on the ClearCell requires cleaning or is
not functioning properly. Flow rate can be set in GPM or LPM, and time duration in minutes. To set the Flow Alert value go to MENU, Flow Alert, and enter desired
threshold flow rate and time duration for notification.
Flow Alert feature is default OFF from ElectroSea and must be set-up by the installer or end user.
CLEARLINE will continue generating chlorine even after a Flow Alert occurs. Flow Alert does not prevent CLEARLINE from operating.
If a Flow Alert occurs:
1.
Check vessel’s strainers and intake grates for blockage
2.
Check seawater pump operation
3.
Check ClearCell Internal Screen (see Pg. 10-15)

Optimal Performance
Constant Chlorinated Seawater Flow:
The CLEARLINE System should be powered ON and have seawater flowing through the ClearCell at all times.
This provides the vessel’s seawater circuit with constant chlorinated seawater to prevent unwanted marine growth.
Intermittent or stagnant
seawater that is not continuously electrochemically treated allows growth of marine microorganisms. Barnacles have the innate ability to close themselves
off and survive intermittent exposure to biocidal agents.
•
DO NOT turn off seawater pumps, air conditioner, or chiller for an extended period of time.
Inspect the vessel for problem areas:
•
Pre-existing biofouling in seawater lines prior to CLEARLINE installation.
•
Clogged seawater strainers and intakes.
•
Impacted, blocked or occluded lines from debris lodged in plumbing.
•
Sporadic demand valve areas; depending on the system, valves that turn on and off can foster unwanted marine growth.
