Description

The Lectra/San and ElectroScan do not require a salt feed system when operating in ocean water with a salt content of 3.5%. A salt feed system needs to be utilized if operating in fresh or brackish water. This system can be used with all Lectra/San or ElectroScan models. Low salt is indicated on the unit’s Control Indicator Panel. Salt can be added to the Lectra/San using a Four Gallon Salt Feed Tank.

Solar Salt is added directly to the tank. Water supplied by the boats pressurized freshwater maintains the water level in the tank and continues to make a saturated salt solution from the solar salt. Every time the toilet is flushed, a portion of the salt water solution is mixed with incoming water to increase water salinity in the Treatment Tank. A Low Salt indication on the unit’s Control Indicator Panel will indicate time to refill tank with more salt.

The amount of saturated salt solution entering the Treatment Tank can be decreased or increased by adjusting the plastic tubing clamp (#31-304C). To decrease the amount of salt solution entering system, adjust plastic tubing clamp to pinch tubing restricting flow. To increase the amount of salt solution, release plastic tubing clamp to remove restriction. When operating in proper salinity, close the plastic tubing clamp to avoid unnecessary drain of salt solution from the tank. Reopen plastic tubing clamp when needed.
