2. Be certain to install electrical controls (e.g., on/off
switches, timers, control systems, etc.) at least five (5)
feet from the filter. This permits one to stand clear of the
filter during system start up.
3.
Allow sufficient clearance around the filter to permit
visual verification that the clamp is properly installed
around the tank flanges, see Figure A.
a.
Tap the clamp with a mallet or similar tool to ensure
uniform loading during clamp tightening.
4.
Allow sufficient space above the filter to remove the filter
lid for cleaning and servicing. This distance
will vary with the model of filter you are using.
See Table 1 for the required vertical clearance.
5.
Position the filter to safely direct water
drainage. Rotate the High Flow™ manual air
relief valve to safely direct purged air or water.
Water discharged from an improperly
positioned filter or valve can create an
electrical hazard as well as damage property.
Risk of electrical shock or electrocution. Position the filter and High Flow™ manual air relief valve to safely
direct water drainage and purged air or water. Water discharged from an improperly positioned filter or
valve can create an electrical hazard that can cause severe personal injury as well as damage property.
6. Make all plumbing connections in accordance with local plumbing and building codes. Filter plumbing
connections are provided with an O-ring seal. If needed, use only a silicone base lubricant on the
O-rings. Do not use pipe joint compound, glue or solvent on the bulkhead connections.
To seal the valve connections, use thread seal tape, thread sealant or plumbing paste (non-petroleum base).
7. Remove the plug from the top of the filter lid and install the pressure gauge before use.
8.
The maximum working pressure of this filter is 50 p.s.i. Never subject this filter to pressure in
excess of this amount, even when conducting hydrostatic pressure tests. Pressures above 50 p.s.i.
can cause the lid to be blown off, which can result in severe injury, death or property damage.
When performing hydrostatic pressure tests or when testing for external leaks of the
completed filtration and plumbing system, insure that the MAXIMUM PRESSURE that the
filtration system will be subjected to DOES NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WORKING
PRESSURE OF ANY OF THE COMPONENTS CONTAINED WITHIN THE SYSTEM. In
most cases, the maximum pressure will be stated on each component of the system.
If doubt exists as to the pressure to which the system will be subjected, install an ASME
