Important: The use of non-authorized and/or the misuse of authorized chemicals will void your Sea Recovery
Corporation warranty! For example, DO NOT connect the S
ystem’s inlet to your ship’s potable water
system if it contains chlorinated or brominated water. These chemicals destroy the copolymer components and
the oxidants will damage the RO Membrane Element. In this situation, you can use the optional Sea Recovery
Fresh Water Flush Accessory to remove the chlorine and bromine from your ship's potable water system
before connecting the Ultra Whisper RO Desalination System.

packaging solution. If skin contact occurs, rinse skin thoroughly with water. If eye contact occurs, flush eyes
repeatedly with water and notify a physician immediately.
Caution: Never mount the liquid holding component above any electrical or electronic device. Extensive
damage to the electronic device will result if liquid enters device during maintenance and/or component failure.
Important: Do not over-tighten PVC fittings. If threaded pipe fittings leak after installation, remove the fitting,
clean the mating threads, apply three (3) to four (4) wraps of Teflon tape to the male threads, apply liquid
Teflon pipe sealer sparingly, and thread the parts back together. PVC fittings should be hand tightened, without
the use of a wrench.
