Pre-Installation Safety
Ensure that you—as the Installer, Operator or both—read and understand the prerequisites, warnings and important
notes within this topic.
Storage Prior to Uncrating
You must adhere to the following crate markings:
• DO NOT store in direct sunlight
• DO NOT store above 120ºF (50ºC)
• DO NOT allow the System to freeze (do not store below 32ºF (0ºC))
• DO NOT store longer than four (4) months without flushing with storage chemical
• Store only on base with ARROWS UP
• Keep the RO Membrane Element wet at all times
Uncrating
• DO NOT DISCARD ANY PACKAGING UNTIL YOU HAVE FOUND AND IDENTIFIED ALL PARTS!
• Remove the Seafari Quest system from the shipping carton. Note that some of the components are loose and/or
separately packaged in the shipping container.
• Refer to the Illustrated Packing List pages to identify and confirm the contents of the Shipping Crate.
•
USE CAUTION WHEN TROUBLESHOOTING. DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE UNLESS THE FOLLOWING
CONDITIONS ARE MET:
• The System Feed Water Sea Cock Valve is closed.
• The system main electrical disconnect switch is switched OFF, LOCKED, and TAGGED.
• CAUTION: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD! A Volt / Ohm Meter will be necessary. The Installation procedures
expose the Installer to High Voltage and electrical shock hazard. Only attempt this if you are a qualified electrician
and only if surrounding conditions are safe.
Tools required for Installation
Not all installations are typical; therefore, it is recommended to have a full set of Mechanic’s, Plumber’s, and
Electrician’s tools available. No special system tools are required for installation. A separate TDS Meter, available
from Horizon Reverse Osmosis, will assist in confirming System product water quality. A volt/ohm meter (VOM) is
required for system installation and commissioning to ensure proper electrical power and connection.
Chemical Precautions
Danger: The RO Membrane Element is susceptible to chemical attack. Take extreme caution in handling
and storing! Do not expose your Seafari Quest RO Desalination System to feed water containing chemicals
not approved in writing by Horizon Reverse Osmosis.
Do not connect a water line to your Seafari Quest RO Desalination System that may contain any of the following
chemicals:
• Hydrogen peroxide chloramines-T
