1. Unscrew the prefilter housing, remove the dirty
prefilter element, and discard the water in the
bowl. Do not lose the large o-ring at the top of
the bowl.
Warning: If you purchase after-
market filter elements, be certain
they are made from polyester fibers.
In particular, be wary of elements
made of paper materials. They look
very similar, but are designed for
use with other types of water purifi-
cation systems and are harmful to
the membranes and high pressure
pumps used in reverse osmosis
watermakers. Be certain you
purchase only polyester filter
elements of 30-micron (or finer) size.
2. Clean the inside surface of the prefilter bowl.
Inspect and clean the o-ring at the top of the
bowl. Lubricate the o-ring and the threads of
the prefilter housing with a light coat of silicon
grease.
3. Install a clean filter element and screw the
prefilter bowl back on securely.
4. If the watermaker will not be used within the
next three days, treat it with membrane
preservative (see Membrane Storage below).
5. Tie a line through the center of the dirty filter
element and, if underway, tow it behind the vessel for a few minutes. If the vessel is
anchored, hang the dirty filter over the side of the boat so that it is underwater, and
jerk/shake it up and down a few times to dislodge the contaminants.
6. Dry the filter element thoroughly, preferably in the sun. Then store it for use as a clean
filter the next time the prefilter assembly is serviced.
We do not recommend scrubbing filter elements with brushes or other abrasive tools or
materials, as such treatment is unnecessary and greatly shortens the life of the filter element. If
filter elements are cleaned regularly as directed, and not allowed to become extremely dirty,
they can be expected to last for many months of service with nothing more than the gentle
cleaning described above. Clean filter elements also help assure unrestricted flow of intake
seawater to the pump.
Membrane Storage, Preserving & Cleaning
The two reverse osmosis membrane elements inside the membrane housing are expensive and
delicate components of your system. When properly cared for, they can be expected to last for
several thousand hours of use. However, improper use, maintenance or handling can damage
or destroy them very quickly.
Membrane Preservative Treatment: The primary
purpose of a membrane preservative treatment is to keep
membrane moist and reduce biological growth on the
membrane surface. Over time, biological matter can adhere to
the membrane surface, thus gradually decreasing its
effectiveness. When the watermaker is not to be used for an
extended period of time, you should preserve the membrane.
A membrane preservative treatment is effective for
approximately one year (storage temperature <25°C/77°F). If
longer storage is required, the membrane preservative
treatment should be repeated every year.
Warning: Be sure to follow the flushing procedures described below to ensure that the
membrane preservative solution does not get into the freshwater supply.
