Ventura Deluxe Operation
Normal operation
If the system has been pickled or stored or contains cleaning compounds, use the “New
System Startup” procedure.
1. Check to see that the inlet seacock is open.
2. Turn the product valve to the “Sample” position.
3. Start the feed pump and check for flow by inspecting the brine discharge or checking for
pressure on your analog gauge. If there is no flow open the pressure relief valve on the
Clark Pump and bleed the air out of the feed pump.
4. Check the product water with your hand held salinity tester. When it is below 750 ppm,
you may divert it into your tank.
5. Run the system until you have filled your tank or have made enough to meet your re-
quirements for several days.
6. Turn on the fresh water flush valve and close the service valve.
7. Flush for 2

minutes or until the pressure drops on the gauge indicating that the mem-
brane is flooded with fresh water. Stop the feed pump.
8. Return the service valve and the flush valve to their run positions.
You may now leave the system unattended for up to five days without further attention
We recommend operating the system for longer periods and effecting a fresh water flush
rather than running the machine every day and not flushing the system. Remember that you
need to run the system almost a half an hour to make the flushing water. You may notice that
the system output is higher while charging your batteries as the machine is voltage sensitive.
