4)
Stow input hose inside pump body and store Mini inside the carry bag.
Note: When removing unit from long-term storage, flush the system with one liter of water to
remove any stale tasting water.
Ceramic Capacity
Ceramic capacity depends on water quality. The dirtier the water the more often you will
have to clean the element. This reduces the capacity of approx. 2'000 gallons (7'000 liters).
If the gap of the measuring gauge fits over the ceramic it is time to replace the filter. (Figure
2-3) Inspect the ceramic for cracks after cleaning, if you dropped the filter or if you had
freezing temperatures. If the filter shows cracks it will no longer protect you from
microorganisms.
Ceramic Installation
Replacement filter elements are available from the dealer where you purchased your
Katadyn Mini.
1)
Remove output hose from output barb. Remove the element by turning it
counterclockwise as far as it will go and lifting it from the housing.
2)
Remove new ceramic element from packaging.
3)
Insert new ceramic housing by holding output barb towards you and turning
clockwise as far as it will go while pushing down.
4)
Re-attach output hose to output barb.
5)
Flush ceramic element by pumping and discarding the first liter.
