I. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Ensure all appropriate personnel read owner's manual prior to installation and/or operation of filter. Failure to
comply with instructions and safety precautions could lead to personal injury or product damage. Please call
(847) 966-2636 and ask to speak with one of our customer service representatives if there are any questions.
Always wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) - Eye protection, Ear protection, gloves, and protective footwear.
1.
AT NO TIME SHOULD THE INTERNAL PRESSURE EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RATED PRESSURE OF THE FILTER. Refer to
maximum pressure rating decals located on the filter.
2.
Under no conditions should the filter lid or pressure gauges be removed while the filter is pressurized.
3.
All filters with a side inlet and a bottom foot ring must be placed on a firm supporting surface. DO NOT suspend the
filter by the inlet and outlet connections. All filters with vertical inlet piping must be plumbed into properly
supported piping.
4.
Units with damaged or missing parts should NEVER be operated. Contact customer service representatives for
replacement parts.
5.
Back-flow prevention devices should be installed upstream of the inlet and downstream of the outlet of the filter to
prevent back flow or vacuum effects that can be damaging to the filter.
6.
Pressure relief valves of a sufficient size and volume should be installed upstream of the inlet and downstream of the
outlet of the filter. They should be set so the system never exceeds the maximum rated pressure. It is recommended
that the set point is approximately 20% higher than the operating pressure. Failure to install relief valves could lead to
personal injury or product damage.

    II. RECEIVING & INSTALLATION Inspect filter to ensure there is no damage from transit. Confirm all dust plugs/flange protectors (inlet, outlet, gauge ports, etc.) are removed. Locate serial number on top of outlet flange or pipe (see diagrams below) and record in the box on page 1. Position the filter into the piping system using the red arrows to indicate flow path.
  • Page 3: Torque Recommendations

    Position the filter lid back on the filter body. Tighten the lid following the Torque Recommendations. Storage (Not in Service) When the filter is not in service, Thermal Care recommends the following to prevent premature deterioration of the filter housing and screen.  Isolate the filter to ensure no flow and release pressure.
  • Page 4: Information Concerning Water Hammer

    Water hammer does not have to occur fully to raise the pressure. A partial hammer can occur that raises the pressure to a certain percentage of the theoretical maximum. The SF Series Screen Filter is rated to an absolute maximum pressure of 150 PSI for bolted lid models, 125 PSI for band clamp lid models.
