    10 to 12 gallons of water. It should be noted that even during the backflush cycle, the filtration process continues uninterrupted. Recommended Applications Tekleen OBF water filters are ideal for filtering out silt, scale, sand, rust, dirt and organic material like algae, zebra muscles, and clams from virtually all types of water sources.
  • Page 4: Design Features

    Design Features Among the many features of the OBF models is their avoidance of the danger of forcing contaminated water back into the system, which often happens with a sand media filter. These filters will deliver clean water or no water.
  • Page 5: Installationand Hook-Up

    The solenoid should be mounted in a vertical and upright position to reduce the possibility of contamination by foreign material. For more information: WEB: FLTR.com.au PHONE: (+61) 1300 62 4020 EMAIL: info@FLTR.com.au SKYPE: Purple.Engineering...

  • Page 11: Frequent Or Continuous Flushing While Filling Main Pipeline

    The controller pressure differential is set too close causing vibration to initiate a flush cycle. SOLUTION Increase pressure differential (see Page 2 for both electronic ant hydraulic controller).

  • Page 12: When Changing Irrigation Blocks, Filter Flushes Rapidly

    Water flow in new block is causing an increased pressure drop through filter which exceeds the controller setting. SOLUTION Re-adjust controller for the highest flow rate. (See pages 2 and 3).
