Sea water system to galley sink (Opt)
◊
The system is fed through an extra seacock positioned under the
galley sink.
• Sea water pumped out by mean of its own foot pump (Opt) will
exit through it’s own faucet in the galley sink.
Cautions and general precautions
• No water should ever be in the bilges if all systems work properly.
If you notice water in the bilges, find out if the water is fresh or salt:
- in the first case check the fresh water distribution system and
the gasket around the mast collar (it could be rain water!);
- otherwise check the sea water system and all the other possible
suspects (engine, heads, etc.).
• Before switching on the water pressure pump, we recommend that
you check the fresh water level in the tanks and that the correct
valve (
E
) of the circuit is open.
- The water pump could be damaged if it should run too long
without a water supply. In this case shut off the switch and refill
tanks.
• Before turning on the water heater, read the manufacturer manual
and Water Heater chapter at page
26
.1
• In case of localized leaks or of periodical maintenance, shut down
the pertinent sectors of the system or the main shut off switch.
• Before the winter season, tanks should be emptied and the system
should be drained of water to avoid serious damage. Water in the
pipes or manifolds could freeze and break pipes.
• The same should be done to the water heater and heat exchanger.
• We suggest not to use sea water (Opt) in heavily polluted areas.
• Remember that the whole sea water system (Opt) is located under
water. If a leak appears in this circuit shut off the entire system by
closing its seacock (see diagram page
