The Solenoid is not actuating the Valve’s seat.

Solution

: Check for 12 VDC at the valve’s Solenoid,

and at the Main Printed Circuit Board. Check for
loose Wire and correct it.

Check the valve’s solenoid continuity
and functionality, refer to Section 8. Replace
the Solenoid Valve if the Solenoid is found to be
non-functional.

The 3-Way Product Water Diversion Solenoid Valve
is always in the “good water” position even when
the Touch Pad indicates that the Product Water is
high in salinity.

The Manual By-Pass button located on the side of
the solenoid is in the Manual By-Pass position.

Solution

: Release the button to the normal

position. Refer to Section 8.

34) CHARCOAL FILTER

The Charcoal Filter is designed to remove foul odors
from the Product Water. Sulfurous odor (rotten egg
smell) transmitted to the Product Water is caused when
biological matter decays in the feed water section. Fresh
water flushing of the system helps to minimize this.
Problems and Symptoms appearing and caused by the
Charcoal Filter:
a)

The Product Water has a smell of rotten egg.

The smell originates in the Feed Water and passes
through the R.O. membrane element into the
Product Water.

Solution

: Change Prefilter Elements with new

elements and Fresh Water Flush the System to
minimize the decaying biological matter.

Change the Charcoal Filter Element with
a new element.

Drain and replace the Product water in the
Fresh Water Tank.

35) pH NEUTRALIZING FILTER

The product water from the system will be slightly acidic,
approximately pH 6.5. This is normal for any Reverse
Osmosis System. The pH Neutralizer Filter replaces
alkaline, calcium carbonate, which neutralizes the pH of
the product water back to a normal of pH 7.5. The life of
the neutralizing cartridge depends on the amount of use,
amount of product water flowing through it. Replace the
element as necessary.

CAUTION

: Use only Sea Recovery

replacement pH cartridges. Third party
pH cartridges are for use with very low
flow rates and cause excessive restriction
resulting in Product Water Line pressure
build up. These third party cartridges will
damage the R.O. Membrane Element
|and components in the Product Water
Line. Damage to the Sea Recovery
System caused by the use of Non Sea
Recovery supplied pH Neutralizing
Cartridge is the liability and responsibility
of the operator and not covered by the
Sea Recovery Warranty.

36) ULTRA VIOLET STERILIZER***

The UV Sterilizer destroys at least 99.9% of any virus,
bacteria, and other micro-organisms which may pass
through the R.O. Membrane Element. The UV sterilizer is
recommended if the Product Water Storage Tank is not
otherwise treated by means such as chlorination.
The UV Lamp is rated for approximately 4,400-8,000
hours of use. When the intensity of the lamp diminishes
replace the lamp.
Problems and Symptoms appearing and caused by the
Ultra Violet Sterilizer:
Prior to assuming that the UV Sterilizer Ballast and or
Lamp have failed, perform a Function Test as described
in Section 6.4.
a)

The UV Lamp is not properly functioning:

The UV Lamp flickers on and off and does not
remain illuminated steady.

Solution

: Replace the UV Lamp with a new lamp.

The UV Lamp illuminated steady but has lost it’s
original intensity.

Solution

: Replace the UV Lamp with a new lamp.

The UV Lamp does not illuminate at all.

Solution

: Replace the UV Lamp with a new lamp.

Check the condition of the UV Lamp Ballast to
ensure its functionality.

37) PRODUCT WATER CONNECTOR

The Product Water Connector attaches to the Potable
Water unpressurized tank for connection of the Product
Water hose. Replace it if it is damaged or cracked.
