FLO KING PERMACORE REUSABLE CARBON BAG
DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Always wear proper protective gear such as gloves, aprons and goggles. Solution safety proce-
dures must be followed to prevent injury or damage to personnel and the environment.
When shipped by the factory, the Permacore Reusable Carbon Bag is filled with carbon and
ready to use. When the carbon is spent, you must disassemble and clean the bag, then refill with
carbon and reassemble the bag. To disassemble and clean:
1. Remove carbon bag from Flo King pump by loosening thumb screws (filter screws) on
pump. Allow bag to drain in bucket.
2. Untie two knots on strings at top of bag. Use pointy implement if necessary to help
untie knots.
3. Fully loosen string and then open top of bag.
4. Remove Carbon Retainer Ring (white ring) from top of bag.
5. Empty carbon from bag. Make sure to dispose of carbon in accordance with applicable
environmental regulations.
6. Loosen nut at bottom of bag.
7. Remove filter cartridge from bag.
8. Slide plastic web off of filter cartridge.
9. Unroll filter blanket from cartridge core. Most users then lay blanket on piece of grat-
ing over suitable tank, drum, reservoir or wastewater treatment pit and spray each side using an
ordinary hose and spray nozzle (or, if available, pressure spray washer). Normally, this is suf-
ficient for cleaning; however, some contaminants may build up and not flush out completely. In
many applications, these contaminants can be removed easily by placing "Magnum" filter blan-
ket in an appropriate chemical solution.
CAUTION: Never mix cyanide-laden materials with acids; this combination produces hydrogen
cyanide gas, which is lethal if inhaled! The process solution to which the "MAGNUM" blanket
has been exposed must be compatible with the acid from a SAFETY and USE standpoint.
Clean blanket.
Re-roll blanket around core.
