Brine Master
®
English
Always Clean unit with fresh water at the end of every season
to clean out all brine left in brine maker to ensure proper
operations for the following years. The unit requires proper care
for longevity and proper operation. Follow all requirements for
pump and motor by reviewing their manuals that are included.
DO NOT leave salt brine in your brine maker for extended
periods of time when not in use. This can cause salt creep
which can move into the motor and cause seizing issues and
damage seals. The best practice is to clean the hopper after
each use to prevent salt from hardening in the bottom of the
unit. Run clean water through the brine maker and then drain
the pump using the drain plug located at the bottom of the
pump.
If you notice your flow rate has decreased to under 100 gpm
on the flowmeter, this indicates that your filter is partially
restricted by debris. SLOWLY crack open the shutoff valve to
flush out debris buildup. To fully clean the filter, disassemble
by shutting off unit and opening the drain valve on the
bottom of the inline filter. Once the liquid has drained from
the filter, unscrew housing, remove filter screen and clean it.
Reassemble and continue use.
The salinity measuring instrument should be cleaned with
fresh water at the beginning of each brining run.
Debris left in the hopper can be removed using the 3” cleanout
valve/port at the bottom of the hopper. First, suck out the brine
from your hopper and then remove debris using the cleanout
valve.
