Sea Recovery Ultra Whisper Rev. A
Sea Recovery’s Reverse Osmosis Desalination Systems
are Type Accepted by the American Bureau of Shipping, ABS.
ABS
American Bureau of Shipping.
Safety, Service, Solutions
These three goals define the activities of ABS. They are the bedrock upon which the American Bureau of
Shipping’s commitment to set standards of excellence as one of the world’s leading ship classification societies is
founded.
From its inception in 1862, setting safety standards for the marine industry has been the core commitment of ABS.
This is achieved through the establishment and application of technical standards, known as Rules, for the design,
construction and operational maintenance of ships and other marine structures. Classification is a process that
certifies adherence to these Rules.
The core competencies of this worldwide network of ABS professionals lie in the fields of survey, engineering and
auditing. Backing these field representatives is an unequivocal commitment to research and development.
The ABS Type Approval Program
The ABS Type Approval program has existed in some form since 1983. Today it is formalized in the Rules. Two
basic processes and certificates establish the validity of a product and all other certificates that may be issued in the
program. The format imitates the format of the European Marine Equipment Directive (MED).
•Satisfactory evaluation of a product to a set of Rules or standards is recorded in the issue of a “Product
Design Assessment (PDA)” certificate. The process is the same as would be followed for an ABS Design
Review Letter. It imitates the Module B category of the MED.
•Satisfactory evaluation of the manufacturing (Works) facility to confirm their ability to consistently
manufacture the product in accordance with the PDA is recorded in the issue of a “Manufacturing
Assessment (MA)” certificate. This was previously known in ABS as the MMEC program. This imitates the
modules D and E of the MED.
The IACS Ad-Hoc Committee for the Certification of Materials and Components have consensus that Type
Approval requires; 1) an evaluation of the product including prototype tests (if necessary), 2) a witness of the
manufacture of the product (type test), and 3) an assessment of the manufacturer’s ability to consistently
manufacture the product in accordance with the approved specifications. There are a multitude of derivations of
this process; following is an abbreviated outline of the basic certificates:
A Type Approved Product has satisfied the processes of:
1. An Engineer's evaluation of a design to determine conformance with specifications. The manufacturer
should submit sufficient information to allow ABS to determine if the product meets specification. This results
in a Product Design Assessment Certificate (PDA).
2. Witnessing manufacture and testing of a type of the product to determine compliance with the specification
3. A Surveyor's evaluation of the manufacturing arrangements to confirm that the product can be consistently
produced in accordance with the specification. This results in the issue of a Manufacturing Assessment
Certificate

Sea Recovery’s Reverse Osmosis Desalination Systems
comply with FCC § 15.105
United States Federal Communications Commission Compliance
FCC § 15.105
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
__________________________________________________________________
Sea Recovery’s Reverse Osmosis Desalination Systems
have been independently tested and determined to be in compliance
with European CE (Conformité Européne)
The CE Mark ('Trade Passport to Europe') is a visible declaration by the manufacturer (or his representative,
importer, etc.) that the equipment which is marked complies with all the
requirements of all the applicable directives. This mark allows manufacturers and exporters to circulate products freely
within the 15 European Union (EU) members. Having ensured that the equipment does indeed meet all these
requirements (including all the administrative requirements involved in being able to demonstrate compliance), the CE
Mark may then be affixed and the product released.
The letters, "CE", indicate that the manufacturer has undertaken all assessment procedures required for the product.
The CE mark indicates conformity to the legal requirements of the EU Directives.
The "CE" mark is now mandatory for regulated products sold in the European Union.

Sea Recovery Ultra Whisper Rev. A
PREFACE
Thank you for your purchase of a Sea Recovery Ultra Whisper Energy Efficient Reverse Osmosis
Desalination System. This manual contains instructions for the installation, operation, maintenance
and repair of the Sea Recovery Desalination System. This information is provided to ensure
extended life and safe operation of your Sea Recovery System.
Please read this manual thoroughly before installation or operation and keep it for future reference.
A better understanding of the system ensures optimum performance and longer service life from the
system.
The instructions in this manual are intended for personnel with some general training and experience
in the installation, operation and maintenance of electro-mechanical fluid handling systems.
Sea Recovery’s Ultra Whisper Systems are designed and engineered to function as a complete
working unit. Generally speaking, the performance of each component within the unit is dependent
on the component prior to it and governs the performance of all components after it. Proper
performance of the system is thus dependent upon proper operation of every single component
within the system.
The intent of this manual is to allow the operator to become familiar with each component within
the Sea Recovery System. By understanding the function, importance, and normal operation of
each component within each subsystem of the unit, the operator can readily diagnose minor
problems, which if detected early are usually easily corrected. However, if left unattended, a
problem in one component eventually affects the rest of the system and leads to further repairs.
The manual is divided into chapters that address different subject matter. Each chapter should be
reviewed before installing or operating the Reverse Osmosis Desalination System.
The use of Third Party, non Sea Recovery, parts are the major documented cause of failures and
problems caused to the Sea Recovery System. The use of third party, non Sea Recovery,
consumables, spares, and assemblies have, can, and will damage the Sea Recovery System and or
specific components within the System. Do not use parts, components, consumables, or assemblies
from any source other than Sea Recovery. Use of third party, non Sea Recovery, components,
consumables, or assemblies will void any and all warranty of the System and or the affected
component within the system.
Sea Recovery maintains inventory for immediate shipment and our Service Dealers throughout the
world maintain stock of Sea Recovery parts. Always insist on Sea Recovery supplied parts for your
System in order to avoid failures, eliminate problems, and maintain your Sea Recovery Warranty.
