recommended to check the efficiency of the membranes after 5 years of functioning and verify the needed of
a replacement. Please, refer to a certified Schenker service centre for this operation.
6.8 Adjustments
Pump high pressure switch
The main pump is equipped with a high pressure switch set
at around 15 Bar.
The pressure switch can be calibrated with a screwdriver. To
calibrate the pressure switch pull out the plug, remove the
security nut, and engage the small internal screw with a small
screw driver.
Turning clockwise the calibration of the pressure switch
increases, while turning anticlockwise the calibration
decreases.
Accumulator
It is a SS reservoir of air that has the function of damping the
pressure oscillations during the commutations of the
watermaker. The accumulator is factory loaded at a pressure
of about 9 bar. The charge level must be periodically checked
in order to guarantee a correct functioning to the watermaker.
