Re: Desallator 230v 160 LPH watermaker fault
Thanks James and thanks Bill for the responses. I did disconnect the HP Switch and the water-maker worked fine. No over pressure, no over current, the usual production of water quantity and quality for a little over an hour of run time. I'll add the HP switch to my parts list and continue to operate the water-maker as is with a close eye to the gauges and ear for any change in sound. I think the HP switch primarily protects the membranes from HP damage. The HP pump still has the circuit breaker as an additional protection from overload. Regarding the Capacitors, that was also a good reminder. I did replace them four years ago and have not seen any changes in current draw. Thanks and regards, Daniel and Lori Carlson on sv BeBe, SM #387, currently in Bermuda
