Product Water tubing

Product water tubing is 1/4 (6.3mm) parker tubing. See the Parker tube fitting assembly dia- gram next page. Product water goes from the membrane into the pump module manifold where it passes through the flow meter, the salinity sensor and the diversion valve. If the salinity is good the diversion valve energizes and the product goes to the tank from the manifold product outlet. If the diversion valve is not energized the product goes back into the feed water.

Connect the product outlet on the membrane housing to the Product Inlet fitting on the pump module manifold using the supplied 1/4 black nylon tubing.

Route the product water from the pump module manifold into the top of the tank. Install a tee in the water tank fill or tap a pipe thread into an inspection port in the top of the tank. Do not feed the water into a manifold or bottom of the tank. Make sure there is no restriction in this plumbing.

If the length of product water tubing supplied with the watermaker is insufficient, use a larger size hose. Product water flow restriction will cause reduced and power consumption in- creased if product flow is restricted.

This advanced system harnesses the power of reverse osmosis to remove salt and impurities from seawater, ensuring the production of clean and safe drinking water. The Newport 400 operates with exceptional energy efficiency, requiring significantly less power compared to traditional watermakers. This is particularly beneficial for boats relying on limited energy sources like solar panels or generators.

The Newport 400 is engineered for ease of operation and maintenance with a user-friendly control panel. Operators can easily monitor key parameters such as water output, pressure, and system status. The intuitive interface makes it simple to adjust settings and troubleshoot potential issues. Additionally, the system is constructed from high-quality corrosion-resistant materials, ensuring durability and longevity in harsh marine environments.

An impressive characteristic of the Spectra Newport 400 is its ultra-quiet operation. This watermaker is designed to minimize noise, making it perfect for use in the close quarters of a yacht without disturbing the peace on board. The integration of advanced technologies further enhances its performance, including a sophisticated water pre-filtration system that reduces the risk of membrane fouling.

The Newport 400 is also designed with versatility in mind. It can be easily integrated into various onboard systems, allowing for simple installation and operation. Its compact size means it can fit into tight spaces on smaller vessels without sacrificing performance.

In summary, the Spectra Watermakers Newport 400 is a reliable, efficient, and quiet solution for generating freshwater in a marine environment. Its advanced reverse osmosis technology, ease of use, and robust construction make it an ideal choice for boaters seeking independence from shore-based water sources. Whether for leisurely cruising or serious ocean voyaging, the Newport 400 stands out as a top-tier watermaker for modern maritime adventures.
