*All performance specifications are with feed-water salinity of 35,000 PPM, feed-water pH of 8, feed-water
temperature of 77°F (25°C), and operating pressure of 800 PSI. Product water output will decrease with lower feed-
water temperatures. Rated output at a given temperature is +/- 15%.
Replacement Parts
Genuine Balmar replacement parts as well as modules and accessories are available from
authorized Balmar dealers. As a convenience to Balmar product users, replacement parts
are also available directly from Balmar Products.
WARNING:
Use of other than genuine Balmar replacement parts may impair the
performance and/or inherent safety of the system and may also void the warranty.
Replacement parts obtained from dealers are not necessarily genuine.
Desalinator Operation
Initial Watermaker Startup
NOTE:
If there is a chance that the ROM will be subjected to freezing temperatures during
the lay-up, remove the high pressure vessel, seal the vessel ports with the caps supplied
in the Cleaning/Biocide Kit, and place the vessel in a storage location whose temperature
will be maintained between 50°F (10°C) and 75 °F (24°C). A food grade preservative is
available from Balmar, should removal be difficult. This acts as an appropriate anti freeze.
But it is not rated below 20 F.
CAUTION:
Allowing the membrane to freeze will cause permanent damage.
The following procedure should be used for new installations and for returning systems
to service after a prolonged shutdown.
1.
De-eenergize
the
Desalinator
circuit
breaker.
Ensure that there are no explosive
vapors present in any of the compartments where components of the Desalinator
are located. (This step is primarily for installation in hazardous locations such as
offshore oil platforms and gasoline powered boats.)
2. Ensure that the high-pressure pump crankcase is filled to the red dot on the oil
level indicator.
3. Set the Product Water Control valve to normal.
4. Open all feed-water inlets.
