INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (BELT DRIVEN) HIGH PRESSURE PUMP To minimize vibration, it is best to build brackets on the motor itself, similar to alternator brackets. Use cardboard to construct a pattern first before making these brackets. The high-pressure pump has a maximum RPM of 1750. The recommended working RPM is 1450. Minimum RPM for ECHO Tec. watermaker models: 200 - 500: 900 RPM The high-pressure pump can run on lower RPM. This will decrease the specified production only. Position the high-pressure pump horizontal with the dipstick up. The pump can turn in either direction. Ensure...

The efficiency of the preservative, under best conditions, is approximately one year. We recommend you install and use your watermaker as soon as possible. When all other components and hoses/tubes are completely assembled, remove the caps on the high- pressure fittings and the sealed tube from the product water outlet on the membrane housing/s and then finish making all final hose/tube connections. This will insure that the membrane is kept moist. CONTROL PANEL Mount the control panel in an easily accessible location as close as possible to the membrane Mount the sea strainer with the...

Run one of the high-pressure hoses from the output of the HP pump (O ring sealed fitting) to the O ring sealed fitting at the end of the membrane that is marked IN. Run the second high-pressure hose from the outlet of the RO membrane housing to the pressure control valve in the control panel. Do not over tighten the high pressure fittings. They are O-ring sealed and need little torque to lock only. PRODUCT WATER TUBING Connect the product water tubing from the center fitting(s) of the membrane housing(s) to the bottom inlet of the flow meter, in the control panel. Connect the tubing from...

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION (OPTIONS) BOOST PUMP Install the boost pump with the motor up or sideways in a dry location below the water line, in between the sea strainer and the pre-filter(s). The intake is at the center of the pump. Be sure your electrical wiring for this pump switches off and on at the same time the magnetic clutch switches off and on, to prevent the pump from being damaged due to dry run. Connect the filter housing with the supplied %" nylon nipple to the standard filter housing and reconnect the reinforced vinyl hose. The 5micron cartridge has to be installed as the second...

SYSTEM OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS The reverse osmosis membrane contains a preservative solution to prevent microbiological growth. If ingested, may cause irritation of the gastro-intestinal tract, Colic, diarrhea, or other similar symptoms. Therefore, discard all the product water for at least thirty minutes of initial operation, after storage before drinking or before use in food preparations! Do not operate the system using contaminated feed water sources (oil, chlorine or other chemicals). Have you filled the high-pressure pump with the proper amount of oil (0.221tr/7.5oz SAE90 gearbox oil)?...
