H simultaneously (Figure 4). If a valve is installed between the CleanFlow F-31 and the instrument to be supplied with the conditioned natural gas or instrument air, open that valve to allow the pneumatic supply to reach the instrument.
All maintenance and cleaning of the unit should be performed on a smooth, clean surface. Welker® recommends having the following tools available for maintenance. Please note that the exact tools required may vary by model. 12" Wrench b.
(Figure 4). If the CleanFlow F-31 is equipped with the optional differential pressure gauge, close inlet pressure valve G and outlet pressure valve H prior to performing maintenance to protect the gauge from damage (Figure 4). If applicable, ensure that differential pressure gauge test valve 1 I and differential pressure gauge test valve 2 J are closed (Figure 4).

To maintain supply to the instrument while performing maintenance on the backup filter, the primary filter must be put into service. If the CleanFlow F-31 is equipped with an optional differential pressure gauge, ensure that inlet pressure valve G and outlet pressure valve H are closed (Figure 4).
Halt all operations of the CleanFlow F-31. If the CleanFlow F-31 is equipped with the optional differential pressure gauge, close inlet pressure valve G and outlet pressure valve H prior to performing maintenance to protect the gauge from damage (Figure 4). If applicable, ensure that differential pressure gauge test valve 1 I and differential pressure gauge test valve 2 J are closed (Figure 4).

Slowly open primary filter outlet valve C and backup filter outlet valve D (Figure 4). Check for leaks and repair as necessary. If the CleanFlow F-31 is equipped with the optional differential pressure gauge, open inlet pressure valve G and outlet pressure valve H simultaneously (Figure 4). Dual filter operation will now resume.
3.4 Testing the Differential Pressure Gauge Prior to testing the differential pressure gauge, ensure that the CleanFlow F-31 is in operation (Table 2 and Figure 4). Table 2: Valve Configuration for Operation Single Filter Operation: Single Filter Operation: Valve Dual Filter Operation...
