INTRODUCTION
The Lectra/San does not require a salt feed system
for ocean water use, the salinity of ocean water is
sufficient to operate the system as designed. A salt
feed system needs to be utilized if operating in fresh
or brackish water. This system can be used with all
Lectra/San models. Low salt is indicated on the
Lectra/San Control Indicator Panel. Salt can be
added to the Lectra/San using a Four Gallon Salt Feed
Tank. For dimensions see Fig. #1.
Additional parts included: Strapping for the tank.
Additional parts required: Mounting hardware,
shutoff valve, plumbing fittings, 1/2" (12.7 mm) hose
for pressurized freshwater and 3/4" (19 mm) hose for
overflow.
Pressurized freshwater is required. Minimum of 15
psi (103 kPa) working pressure.
OPERATION
Solar Salt is added directly to the tank (see refilling
salt in the sysem). Water supplied by the boats
pressurized freshwater maintains the water level in
tank and continues to make saturated salt solution
from the solar salt. Every time toilet is flushed, a
portion of salt water solution is mixed with incoming
water to increase water salinity in Treatment Tank.
See Lectra/San Manual. The Low Salt indicator on
the Lectra/San Control Indicator Panel will indicate
time to refill tank with more salt.
The amount of saturated salt solution entering the
Lectra/San Treatment Tank can be decreased or in-
creased by adjusting the plastic tubing clamp
FOUR GALLON SALT FEED SYSTEM (Part #31-3002)
Installation and Maintenance Instructions
(#31-304C). To decrease the amount of salt solution
entering system, adjust plastic tubing clamp to pinch
tubing restricting flow. To increase the amount of
salt solution, release plastic tubing clamp to remove
restriction. (See Start Up section for more details). If
using ocean water, close the plastic tubing clamp to
avoid unnecessary drain of salt solution from the
tank. Reopen plastic tubing clamp when needed.
Refilling salt in the system: Add up to 20 lbs. (9kg)
of solar salt directly into tank. Some water may be
displaced through overflow tube. The water level
will drop back to its normal level after a few uses.
NOTE: Before refilling tank with solar salt, check
the filter screen (#31-313) and make sure it is clean
(see Fig. #2).
