NOTE
You are now ready for full operation under normal circumstances. A few more adjustments are required
while you produce water and store it in tanks for future use.
(4) Slowly close VENT VESSELS valve (figure 2-5) located behind VENT VESSELS Outlet (1). This allows
filtered water to enter R.O. vessels.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the R. O. elements, closely observe R. O. PRESSURE PSI gauge when adjusting
REGULATE PRODUCT FLOW valve R. O. pressure will increase very rapidly
(5) Slowly adjust REGULATE PRODUCT FLOW valve (3) to the right (clockwise). Watch for an increase in
PRODUCT WATER FLOW gauge (2), a decreased flow in BRINE FLOW gauge (4), and increased pressure in the R. O.
PRESSURE PSI gauge (5)
FIGURE 2-64. R. O. PRESSUREAND PRODUCT WATER FLOW GAUGES.
CAUTION
PRODUCT WATER FLOW should not exceed 12 gpm for seawater conditions, 16 gpm for fresh or
brackish water. R. O. PRESSURE PSI gauge should not exceed 960 psi (seawater), 500 psi (fresh or
brackish water). If gauge readings exceed these limits, refer to Section II, Chapter 3, Troubleshooting.

(6) Close REGULATE PRODUCT FLOW valve very slowly. Watch gauges until you obtain proper
balance shown in table 2-4.
