Hello everyone! In this movie I will give you some hints to help you improve the performance of the PureBilge. So when I mean improving the performance that means keeping the ppm level always low so you can discharge overboard when you want. The first thing to know is that you can reduce the feed flow to the machine and it helps you decrease the ppm because you have a higher separation efficiency if you have a lower feed flow. Then you also need to know that the back pressure is quite important that it is set on right value, it should be 5.8 bars. Also, one of the most important parts in the module is the oil content meter here. So this should be kept clean always so that it is detecting the right oil content in the water. So you should ensure that you have 0 ppm there when you are flushing with fresh water, then you know it's clean. Also you can adjust the flow into this oil content meter and it should be quite low, around 1-1.5 liter per minute. Then it gives you the lowest possible ppm reading. Maybe some time you want to increase it a little bit if you want to have to clean it less often. Now, you can also increase the separation temperature, sometimes it helps reducing the ppm level, not always, it depends on what is in the bilge tank. And lastly, you really need to keep the separator clean. That means the top parts, that are easily accessible, we don't need to dismantle the bowl, we can just remove the parts there, access the top parts: paring discs and paring chambers. And then if you clean those parts, then you can drop the ppm level. Also, the disc stack itself into the bowl, needs to be kept clean. And you can do that on regular maintenance basis and you can also do that a bit more frequently if needed. Also you can run the CIP to the machine, cleaning in place, and also sometimes, well if there are a lot of solids in the bilge tank, then if you don't have the right discharge interval, those will stack up into the bowl and you don't have clean discs in this case. So then you need to decrease the discharge intervals if you have a lot of solids in the bilge tank, and also reduce the feed flow. Another thing which can be a problem is, if you have some non-separation friendly chemicals in the bilge tank, it can be some degreaser from the engine room where there are some surfactants inside, which are preventing the oil separation from the water. If you have this kind of chemicals there is not much you can do apart from running the PureBilge continuously on recirculation of the bilge tank. This way it will constantly remove the oil from the bilge tank. So that when you want to discharge overboard, you know already you have some clean bilge tank. And I will also mention another thing that can be a problem, not for the performance but for the lifetime of the machine, it's if you have some corrosive fluid in the bilge tank, then we also advise to reduce the discharge intervals so that you are flushing more frequently the bowl. And also before stopping the machine, you should flush the module completely with some fresh water so that it is standing still in fresh water and not in corrosive bilge water. Yeah, I would say that's it for the tips and tricks. There are other ones of course and you can read the manuals to know all those tricks and I will especially advise the quick guide, which is kind of simple and quite complete. But so that's it for today for this video. So I see you later in other PureBilge training videos.
