Re: Excessive usage of water maker membranes
Yes. I did not state in my previous post that I double filter 5 micron into the tank. I try and take all precautions but I too have high ppm after one year of new membranes. Faulty membranes maybe? A

Paul;
Which water maker do you have? We have the 150 L/HR A/C only unit. I was told that the system can be run at high green pressure setting, 24x7x365 without any issues. We have not had any

Re: Excessive usage of water maker membranes
Hi Mark
Never rinse the membranes with water from the Marina.
Rinse only with your own water which you have produced yourself.
Fresh water kills the membranes

Re: Excessive usage of water maker membranes
Mohammad,
It was at a time when the HP pump was on its way out. I ended up replacing it. I have since run with the pressure on the orange/green border and it has been fine and still made 100+

Hi Mark;
Some potential causes that maybe worth looking at and a couple of questions;
How many hours do you put on your membranes before they need replacing?
Any potential source of chlorine in

Re: Cleaning the prop
Alexander,
Take the prop to a place that has a soda blaster. It'll cost a minimal
amount and can be done while you wait.

Thanks Danny,
When flushing.I have not opened the pressure valve. Perhaps this is the issue. The usermanual on this for the D60 is very vague.

Re: Excessive usage of water maker membranes
As it has been said earlier in this post hydrocarbons (oil, fuel, etc.), chlorine, and over pressure are by far the biggest killers of RO membranes. Operationally, never exceeding the rated capacity
