Page 13: Priming The System
Priming the System Note: The system is equipped with a positive displacement vane pump. It should never be run dry and started without the hoses attached and/or valves in the closed position. Failure to do so may damage the bypass valve and/or pump. Priming Procedure Before turning on the pump make sure the entire suction side of the MTC system (suction hose, separator, plumbing, pump, strainer …) is primed and filled with oil/diesel fuel. -

1. 2 to 30 micron high efficiency particulate filter 2. 5 to 30 micron water block fine filter The AXI International Water Block removes entrained and emulsified water from fuel and oil. Changing Filters: Pending all butterfly valves are open, a differential pressure drop of 22 PSI, as shown by the differential pressure gauges on the final filters, indicates that the final filter elements of that vessel need to be changed. -
Page 17: Servicing Final Filter(S)
Servicing Bag Filter Note: Always have an adequate supply of filter elements/bags on hand. Changing Bag Filters: At 15”HG vacuum, the bag filter elements should be replaced. 1. For a “no mess” bag filter change, the bag filter vessel should be pumped empty. To accomplish this, remove the suction “stinger”, or open atomspheric vent on top of “stinger”. -
