2. Connect Electrical Power to Pump: To provide 12 (or 24) VDC electric power to
the motor, use a minimum of 16 gauge
stranded copper wire. We recommend 14
gauge (or larger) wire for distances over 20
feet. Tinned, stranded copper wire is
preferred for marine installations and is
available in most marine hardware stores.
Figure 4 shows a typical electrical power
configuration.
3. Mount Pre filter Assembly
and 3-Way Valve:
Lightly coat the
male threads of the middle port of the pre
filter 3-way valve with a non-hardening,
paste-type thread sealant (e.g.,
Permatex
®
) to assure an airtight seal.
(Note: Teflon tape is not recommended.)
1. Carefully thread the middle port of
the prefilter 3-way valve into the “IN” port of the pre filter housing. Do not over tighten
this connection. When assembled correctly, the long axis of the 3-way valve should be
vertical (See Figure A-1).

2. Fasten the supplied right-angled mounting bracket for the pre filter assembly to a
bulkhead. Orient it so the pre filter assembly will be vertical, with the bowl underneath.
We recommend that it be thru-bolted with corrosion-resistant hardware.
3. Screw the top of the pre filter housing to the bracket with the supplied screws. One port
of the pre filter 3-way valve should project above the housing through the notch in the
mounting bracket.
4. Install Seawater Intake Plumbing: There are two common approaches to
providing the seawater intake circuit:
Tee into an existing seawater intake (e.g., engine cooling water or manual
seawater pump inlet).
Install a dedicated thru-hull for the watermaker.
Either of these configurations should meet the following criteria:
It should be at a low point on the vessel’s hull, to minimize the chance of air
intake during heeling or rough conditions.
The thru-hull should be a minimum of 1/2" I.D., and possibly larger if it is a
shared inlet. (Note: If there is the possibility that in the future you will want to
upgrade to a higher capacity unit or perhaps a second PowerSurvivor 40E to
implement redundant systems you should consider substituting 1/2" I.D. hoses
and hose fittings during your initial installation).
An easy-to-reach seacock should be installed on the thru-hull immediately
inside the hull.
A coarse seawater strainer is strongly recommended. It should be easy to
reach and clean.
The easiest and most commonly used approach is to tee into an existing
seawater intake system. Because the flow rate and volume of seawater intake
for the PowerSurvivor 40E are both extremely low, the pump can be
adequately supplied by most pre-existing intakes — even inlets that operate at
modest negative pressures, such as the cooling water inlet for an engine or
generator.
When teeing into an existing seawater supply, we recommend installing a separate seacock or
valve (in addition to the one at the thru-hull) to independently control the supply to the
watermaker.
