Only use ge- nuine spare parts for maintenance or repair.
Product description Product description Intended use ● The backwash filters BOXER RX and BOXER RDX are designed for filtering drink- ing water. ● The backwash filter RDX with pressure reducer, in addition, is suitable for the ad- justment of the outlet pressure on the withdrawal side in order to maintain the max. admissible operating pressure stipulated in DIN EN 806-2.
Product description Functional description The unfiltered drinking water flows into the filter through the inlet side and from the outside in through the filter element and to the pure water outlet. Thus, foreign particles of a size > 100 µm are retained. Depending on their size and weight, foreign particles stick to the filter element, or they fall straight down into the filter cylinder.

Installation Installation The installation of the system represents a major intervention into the drinking water sys- tem and must be done by a qualified specialist only. In accordance with DIN EN 806-2 and DIN EN 1717, the product is installed in the cold water pipe downstream of the water meter and upstream of distribution pipes or the appliances to be protected.
Installation Requirements for the installation site ● The installation site must be frost-proof and ensure the filter's protection from chemicals, dyes, solvents and their vapours as well as from direct sunlight. ● The installation site must be away from heat sources (e.g. washing machines, boil- ers and hot water pipes).
Installation Water installation 5.4.1 Preparing the pipe ► Install the water meter screw connection in the pipe. The distance between the two seals must be 160 mm. 5.4.2 Mounting the filter The rotatable connection flange enables the filter to be adapted to any flow direction given on site.
