I have a new to me
Newport 400
I have put new filterers in the system and flushed the system.
I am not sure if the membrane was stored properly. I had stinky black
water along with white
grey water come out of the discharge port when I flushed it for the first 30 seconds.
I then proceeded with a full flush twice.
While I have the system
flushing, one of the membrane end caps
leaks water. I have tried tightening the cap with a strap wrench ( i don't have the C wrench) and it still
leaks. I have taken the caps off and nothing seems out of place.
They still leak. What next? How tight should the end caps be?
How can I tell if I need a new membrane? Low production or ...?
