Maintenance and Service
A little love goes a long way
We’ve worked hard to design a product that is simple to operate and maintain. However,
regular attention to the few maintenance requirements of this equipment is critically important.
This section of the Owner’s Manual describes both the routine and the long-term maintenance
requirements of the PowerSurvivor 80E. Much of our knowledge of maintenance requirements,
watermaker per-formance, and potential problems is a result of feedback from actual users over
many years. Following these instructions will help keep your product freshwater quality good
and your watermaker running trouble-free.
Pump Maintenance
Once properly installed, the watermaker pump and drive assembly require little attention. You
should regularly inspect the equipment and check for any leakage of seawater or oil leaks from
the drive assembly.
Any leakage of oil or seawater is a sign of a problem and should be
corrected.
Make certain that the watermaker remains dry. Exposure to saltwater can cause corrosion of
the drive assembly and/or damage to the electric motor. Keep all electrical connections clean,
dry and tight.
After every 1000 hours (approximately) of use, replace the seals in the pump (See Seal
Replacement below). After approximately 5000 hours of use, have the electric motor inspected
for brush wear and commutator condition.
Pump Piston Shaft Lubrication: It is important to lubricate the pump piston shaft
periodically, especially after cleaning the membrane. The piston shaft is visible at the side of
the drive assembly, where the pump connects to
the drive (see Figure 7). Jog run the watermaker
and stop it when the piston shaft is at its point of
farthest travel away from the pump (i.e., towards
the drive assembly). Assure that the watermaker
is off and can not be started accidentally while
you work. Clean the exposed piston shaft with a
clean rag and lubricate the shaft with non-
petroleum silicon lubricant.
Warning: The PowerSurvivor 80E
motor should be turned off and
disconnected from its source of power
before attempting to lubricate the piston
shaft. Never put your fingers into the area
of the piston shaft while the motor is
running. This could result in serious
injury.
