6 Drainage should be provided beneath the RO unit to allow standing water todrain when performing maintenance or connection sizes are all 1 flanges, except the seawater feed connecting directly tothe LP boost pump inlet with a FNPT thread fitting. Consult the LT installationdrawing towards the end of this manual. The LP boost pump should be below waterline for flooded suction, and can be relocated away from the main unit if DiagramRaw water inlet, through-hullwith sea cock, low as practical andtowards the back of the vessel,but forward of the drive. Planinghulls may need a forward facingscoop if the watermaker operateswhile the vessel is dischargeline overboard andabove water is important that the product water line isconnected to the top of the storage tank to preventchlorinated water from siphoning back into pump below water linewith flooded to LT-7000 Manual2 Revised03/2012 CAUTIONI nlet and discharge piping should be constructed of a NON-FERROUS material.
7 Examples of some suitable materials are PVC, copper-nickel,316 stainless steel piping or a reinforced non-collapsing hose. Ferrouspiping introduces iron that will foul the membranes connecting the seawater source to a water line that services anyother piece of equipment. Air could be drawn through the RO unitcausing damage to the RO unit's pumps. Cross contamination is alsopossible. The best practice is a dedicated through hull for thewatermaker, with a separate seacock and electrical power to the watermaker. Select the circuit breaker size of at least50% more than the operating amps shown on the serial number tag. Connect power tothe main terminal block in the electrical phase power supplies will spin the motors and pumps either rotation direction,depending on the phase sequence of the three hot power legs.
8 The HP pump shouldrotate counterclockwise from the pulley end and low pressure pumps are marked with adirection of rotation. It is importantnotto rotate the low pressure pump bumping the motor for a few seconds can loosen the impellor and causedamage. The high pressure pump will not be damaged from running , always use the high pressure pump only to check rotation and adjust theinput power legs accordingly prior to checking the low pressure pump. If the lowpressure pump is inadvertently bumped backwards, open the pump and check theimpellor is secured on the motor shaft and spins freely prior to starting it observe all applicable electrical codes and regulations governingthe installation and wiring of electrical equipment. Typical codes specifythe type and size of conduit, wire diameter and class of wire insulationdepending upon the amperage and environment.
9 The power supplyshould always be of a greater service rating than the requirements. Neverconnect the RO unit to a supply that services another electrical device, theRO unit should have its own breaker or electrical power to RO unit prior to servicing the to LT-7000 Manual3 Revised03/2012 STARTUP AND OPERATING PROCEDURE1)Check the HP pump oil level by observing sight gauge located on the pump. Oninitial start-up, the media filter may need to be loaded, and the membranesinstalled. Open the raw saltwater supply to the unit at the through-hull. Theflushing valve V10 is in the saltwater position and the cleaning valve V5 shouldbe in the normal )Verify the bypass valve V4 (black handle) is open, )Start the LP pump, verify the filter pressure gauge PG1 shows > 10 psi indicatingthe system is primed with )Start the HP pump.
10 Water should now be visible flowing through the rejectflowmeter and discharging through the overboard reject )Slowly close the bypass valve, and confirm that the membrane pressure gaugePG2 registers 800 psi. The high pressure setting can be adjusted by turning thetop adjusting bolt on the top of the high pressure regulator V3 behind theinstrument )Check the salinity reading, on the water monitor. Normal saltwater startupconditions produce salty water for the first 2 or 3 minutes. Gradually the monitorshould show lower values, drinking water quality is commonly accepted as below500 ppm. When the quality is below 500, the product solenoid valve willautomatically open, and start fresh water supply through the product flowmeterand to the storage )Now would be a good opportunity to make an operation log entry of thepressures, flow and )For shutdown, reverse the steps.
