The SAF-6000 is a sophisticated yet easy-to-operate automatic filter, with a self-cleaning mechanism driven by an electric motor. The SAF-6000 is designed to work with various types of screens in filtration degrees from 10 to 500 micron, and is available in 6", 8" and 10"...

System Operation modes: The filtration system may be found in one of the following modes: 1. Filtering mode: This is the normal operating status. The flush mode is idle and the power light on the control board is lit. 2. Flush mode: The motor and exhaust valve activate according to the previously described self-cleaning process. 3.
Installation Design recommendations: 1. Often, flow increases and pressure drop dramatically during fill-up of a water system. In this case, a pressure-sustaining valve installed downstream of the filter will ensure the minimum required pressure for the filter and a controlled filling-up of the line. 2.

Start-up and first operation Make sure all the electric wiring is correct, according to the enclosed drawings. Turn on control power and 24VAC but leave OL protector off. Verify that the limit switches are wired correctly by manually toggling them. Monitor the appropriate inputs according to the wiring diagram accompanying the control panel. Proceed to next step only after verifying correct wiring of all limit switches in the system.
Maintenance General inspection Initiate a flush cycle by closing the 1/4" valve at the low pressure sensing port of the pressure differential switch for 5 seconds. Check that the exhaust valve opens, that the scanner moves properly, and when it reaches the limit switch - verify that the exhaust valve closes. Weekly maintenance: Check that the filter operates properly, following a general inspection.

Cleaning the coarse screen: (See drawing on this page) Close the filter inlet valve. Release pressure from the filter by operating a flushing cycle. Remove the service lid (25) by disconnecting the bolts (26) from the nuts (28) Clean the coarse screen: To remove large particles, insert your hand into the coarse screen area.
Troubleshooting Before beginning any troubleshooting, carefully read the safety instructions chapter of this document and make sure that all the workers at the filtration site are fully aware of and comply with these and any other local safety instructions. The filtration system may enter a malfunction mode in the following cases: Symptom Remarks and Actions Fault due to continuous signal from the...
Dismantling and Assembling the Filter Components Prior to opening the filter perform a flush cycle by pressing the "TEST" push button. The Fine screen Dismantling: 1. Close the filter inlet and outlet valves and release the pressure. 2. Press the "TEST" push button and disconnect the power when the scanner is in the middle of its track (When the limit switch disc is half-way between the two limit switches).

The drive shaft housing and coarse screen: Dismantling: 1. Close the inlet and outlet valves of the filter and release pressure. 2. Disconnect power supply from the control board. 3. Remove the cover (34) from the drive shaft housing (5) by unscrewing the wing nuts. Pull out the plug from the solenoid coil, remove the limit switch sling (9 on page 24) from the drive shaft housing by unscrewing the bolts (14 on page 24).
