Automatic Store Cycle
Warning!
Proper understanding of the Spectra flush system and the vessel’s fresh water sys-
tem configuration is mandatory for extended Auto Store cycles. The flush cycles must not be
allowed to drain all the fresh water from the vessel or damage to the vessel’s systems may oc-
cur.
•
Make sure there is enough water in the fresh water supply system to supply the watermaker
for more than the expected time of operation in the “re-flush every 5 days” mode. The New-
port 400 MrkII units require about 6 gallons (24 liters) every 5 days.
•
Make sure that the pressure water supply is on and will stay on during the flush mode (If
this is not possible contact your certified dealer.).
•
Make sure that the pressure relief valve is closed. It should be closed if the system was just
used to make water. The auto flush may not operate if the valve is open.
•
The power for the system must remain on during the auto flush mode. Turning off the
power will disable the auto store function and damage may occur.
•
Pressing the Auto Store button momentarily
will start a flush and then activate the
5 day flush cycle. The flush water solenoid will open and the display will read “FRESH
WATER FLUSH” with a countdown timer. After 30 seconds the feed pump will start, after
5-7 minutes the pump will stop while the flush valve remains open for another 30 seconds.
Them the display will read “FLUSH TIMER INTERVAL,” and the countdown timer will
reflect the number of hours until the next flush.
•
Pressing and holding the Auto Store button for 3 seconds
will engage a 1 time
flush. The system flushes as described above but will not re-flush every 5 days. Display will
read “FRESH WATER FLUSH” with a countdown timer, then the default display when fin-
ished.
•
Pressing the Stop button
will cancel the auto store mode and put the watermaker in
standby mode.
