There are two options for the location of the ClearVis Flow Sensor:
4.
The “BEST” location for the ClearVis Flow Sensor is after the Canister output
with at least 12” of straight hose before and after the Flow Sensor.
The ClearVis Flow Sensor can also be installed on the pressure side
of the pump.
5.
An “ACCEPTABLE” location for the ClearVis Flow Sensor is on the output of
the ElectroStrainer Canister with at least 12” of straight hose after
the Flow Sensor.
All seawater flowing through the ElectroStrainer
Canister Assembly must flow through the Flow Sensor. DO NOT split
or divert seawater before the ClearVis Flow Sensor as this will tell the
Control Unit to generate an incorrect amount of chlorine.
6.
Connect threaded male or female PVC hose connectors to ElectroStrainer
Canister, and/or flow sensor as shown in picture 4 or 5.
7.
Use thread sealant without PTFE on all connections.
PTFE should not be used on plastic parts. Avoid over
tightening plastic parts they may crack and result in sinking the vessel.
8.
Use two hose clamps, reversing the clamps, over flexible hose connections.
9.
Add flexible hose hanger, hose strap or hose support bracket within 12” of
ClearVis Flow Sensor. Make sure the ClearVis Flow Sensor is supported.
