-

Up and Testing

 

Use this procedure when starting a new watermaker for the first time and 

whenever the 

system contains preservative or cleaning chemicals.

 

 

Avoid  running  the  system  if  the  vessel  is  in  contaminated  water,  such  as  a  dirty  harbor  or 
canal.  The  system  should  be  fully  run  tested  before  leaving  on  an  extended  journey.  It  is 
preferable  to  sacrifice  a  pre

-

filter  by  testing  the  system  briefly  in  turbid  water  rather  than 

waiting to get offshore to discover a problem or deficiency in the installation. If the location or 
weather prevents proper testing refer to the section Dry Testing with an Artificial Ocean. 

 

1.

 

First Check That:

 

 

• 

Seacock is open

 

• 

Toggle switch on the Feed Pump     
Module is in the Run Auto position

 

• 

Domestic fresh water pressure system 
is on.

 

2. 

 

Open pressure relief valve 1/2 turn and remove the 
Green Tag and washer! 

 

3.

 

Turn on the power to the system and the Spectra Connect screen will display, 

Has the 

system been stored with chemicals?

” 

Press 

Yes

’, 

to start the Purge sequence.  Note: The 

watermaker will shut down if the pressure relief valve is left closed during the Purge mode.

 

• 

Alarm will sound

 

• 

Display will read 

Has the 

system been stored with 
chemicals?

 

• 

Confirm the Pressure Relief 
Valve is open

 

• 

Press 

Yes

’ 

to start the Purge 

sequence

 

Warning! Damage may occur if the purge sequence is bypassed and
