Fresh Water Flush

Pressing the ‘Fresh Water Flush’ button

flushes the watermaker with fresh water

from the vessel’s domestic water tanks.

After completing the flush, Spectra Con-

nect will automatically enter the Auto Store

mode.

Stop

Pressing the ‘Stop’ button from the Home

Screen will end the Auto Store mode

countdown timer and leave your watermak-

er in Standby mode.

When you first power up the system, you will get a warning message, asking if the sys-

tem has been stored with chemicals.If the system has been pickled, winterized,

this is the first startup, or the condition of the system is unknown, go to COMMIS-

SIONING or serious damage may occur.

Start

Pressing the ‘Start’ button once advances

to the Run Mode selection screen.

Spectra Connect Quick Start Guide

Run Mode

Select your desired Run Mode to start mak-

ing water and filling your tanks. See details

on Run Mode options on p. 37

Spectra Connect Modes and Definitions

Auto Store: After the watermaker fresh water flushes, it will start a countdown timer that

can be seen on the Home screen. The timer indicates the next programmed fresh water

flush if the watermaker is not started again, or the ‘Stop’ button is not pressed.

Fill Tank: The watermaker will automatically run until the Tank Full switch in the water

storage tanks closes. Once the Tank Full switch closes, the watermaker automatically

fresh water flushes, then reverts to the Auto Store mode.

Auto Run: The watermaker can be set to run for a number of hours, or for a quantity of

water to be produced. When the desired quantity of water is produced or the run timer

expires, the watermaker will Fresh Water Flush and enter the Auto Store mode.

Please read through the complete manual before starting your installation. The system is easy

to operate and maintain as long as it is installed and calibrated correctly.

Spectra Watermakers Land Based Desalination Systems are shipped pre-tested and pickled

with propylene glycol for shipment. The system is ready for installation with the options speci-

fied with your order. Please unpack the system and inspect it to make sure that it has not

been damaged in shipment.

Refer to the shipping list for your system to make sure you have received all of the compo-

nents listed.

We will not be held responsible for shortages that are not reported within thirty days of

the ship date. Shipping damage must be reported to the carrier within 24 hours of re-

ceiving goods.

Getting Started

Introduction to the system

The large control box contains the:

 Spectra Connect control panel

 Main circuit breaker for the system

 The Run Manual, Run Auto and Service

switch.

 Start and stop buttons for manual operation

The small control box is for the feed/boost pump

and includes;

 Auto (run) and Manual switch

 Off (down), Auto run (middle), Manual start is

up (spring loaded)

 See the speed control manual (from the man-

ufacturer) for more detailed instructions

The main valve panel for each LB-10,000 watermaker is identical and all the valves

and gauges are clearly labeled.

The system contains both pressure transducers (for the Spectra Connect controller)

and pressure switches for operation in manual mode.

Note that all the valves in this picture are in the off position. There is an arrow on the

yellow handle that shows the direction of flow. To open the valve turn the arrow in the

direction you want the water to flow to (or from).

For example the inlet/

service valve needs to

point down to run the sys-

tem so water will flow from

the pre-filters.

The Valve and Gauge panel

Both of the watermakers are identical and are capable of fully automatic operation or can be

run manually. In manual mode the system is still protected from loss of feed pressure and ex-

cess membrane pressure, which are the two main things that can cause a fault.

Note that the valves (yellow handles) are shown in the off position.

Introduction to the system

Feed/boost pumps

The two Boost pumps pressurize water from

the feed tank connected to the container.

There is a basket strainer on each pump that

can be checked through the clear window on

the top of the unit.

Note that these pumps must be full of water

before starting. Running these pumps dry will

damage the unit very quickly. The pump

speed is controlled by the small control box

below the main control.

See the boost pump manufacturers manual in

the binder for more detail.

Chlorine Injection

There are two Chlorine Injectors (one for each

system) that add chlorine when the unit is mak-

ing product water (the injection pump is powered

when the diversion valve is open. The manufac-

turers operation manual is in the binder.

Media filters

Each system has two media filters connected

in parallel. Pressurized water from the Boost

Pump is pushed into the media filters and

then on to the cartridge filters.

The pressure gauges on the end of the mani-

folds show the pressure in and out of each

media filter pair. Note what the normal pres-

sure drop is after the filters are back-flushed

and monitor the pressure difference (pressure

drop) across the filters. Back flush the filters

when the pressure drop is 3-5psi.

See the media filter manufacturers manual in the binder for more detailed instructions.

Introduction to the system

Cartridge Pre-Filters

Each system uses two 4x20” 5 micron filters as the final

stage of filtration before going to the Pearson Pump and

the seawater membranes.

There is a button on top of each housing to bleed air out

of the housing after changing filters. There are pressure

gauges on both the inlet and outlet to monitor pressure

drop across the filters. When the pressure drop across

the filters is 5 to 10psi (maximum) the filters should be

replaced.

Test Ports

There are product water test ports for each system so

the operator can confirm the produce quality. Note

that measuring the chlorine concentration should be

measured from the product tank as the chlorine injec-

tion point is too close to the sampling valve for ade-

quate mixing.

The black ABS Drain Manifold is the drain for the

brine discharge and the back-wash from media filters.

This manifold is open (vented) at the top and it should

be noted that if the drain line outside the watermaker

is too small or is not graded properly that this vent pipe

may need to be extended through the top of the con-

tainer.

Carbon Block Filters

Product water from the storage tank needs to be pres-

surized and connects to the “Flush Water” port on the

outside of the container. The flush water goes through

Carbon block filters for removing chlorine from the

flush water to protect the membranes.
