Dry Testing with an Artificial Ocean
If it is not possible to test run the system with the boat in the water, you may test the system with
an artificial ocean. You will need 1.3 lbs. of non - iodized salt (rock salt, sea salt, or aquarium salt)
to make a 5 gallons (33 grams of salt per liter) of water that is about 33,000 PPM salinity (average
seawater salinity). Make sure the domestic water system is powered up and the boat ’ s tank has at
least 60 gallons (230 Liters) of water to purge the storage chemicals from the system. Confirm
that the charcoal filter is installed in the feed pump module, and the domestic water line is con-
nected.
1. Open the pressure relief valve on the Clark Pump. Remove the green tag and spacer.
2. Power up the system. When the Spectra Connect displays “ Has the system been stored with
chemicals? ” , select “ No ” to bypass the purge mode.
3. Press the Fresh Water Flush button to run a full flush cycle. Do this six times to purge the
storage chemicals, a 36 minute process.
4. Replace the brine overboard hose with the brine service hose per figure 1.
5. Push the Fresh Water Flush button again to fill the bucket with fresh water from the brine
discharge service hose (hose attached to Clark Pump). Press Stop when the bucket is full.
6. Mix the salt to the proper proportion or use an aquarium hydrometer to adjust the salinity level
to a specific gravity of 1.025.
7. Remove the fresh water flush hose from the fresh water flush module or Z - Ion at the Quick
Connect fitting, and connect the intake service hose, per Figure 2. Disconnect the product tube
from the diversion valve, and using another small piece of tube, route it into the bucket.
8. Push the Start button, then press Auto Run and program the Connect to make 10 gal (38 L)
of water, roughly 40 minutes of operation.
9. Allow the system to prime and then close the pressure relief valve. The system should build
pressure shortly and start making water, with the brine and product water recombining in the
bucket to be cycled again. This will gradually heat the water. Do not let the water temperature
exceed 120 deg. F (49 deg. C).
10. Run the system under pressure, checking for proper operation and leaks. After testing the sys-
tem, re - install the brine discharge hose, product tube, and fresh water hose from the strainer.
You can now flush the system by pressing the Fresh Water Flush button.
