IMPORTANT
Please make certain that persons who are to use this filter
thoroughly read and understand these instructions prior to
operation. Should you have any questions regarding the
operation of this filter, please call (317) 887-0729 and ask to
speak with one of our customer service representatives.
I. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Safety precautions are essential when any filtration equipment is involved. These precautions are necessary when using, storing, and
servicing your filter. If safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal injury or product damage may occur.
Your filter was designed for specific applications. It should not be modified and/or used for any application other than originally
specified. If there are any questions regarding its application or installation, contact Advantage, Inc.
Always heed the following precautions, as they are essential when using your MLS In-Line Filter.
1)
Read this manual carefully. Consider the applications, limitations, and the potential hazards specific to your filter.
2)
(Flanged units only) The filter must be placed on a firm, supporting surface. The filter should not be suspended by the Inlet
and outlet flanges.
3)
Absolutely under no conditions should the filter lid or pressure gauges be removed while the filter is pressurized.
Standard bolted lid models should never exceed 150 PSI; V-Band clamp models should never exceed 125 PSI.
4)
Units with damaged or missing parts should never be operated. Contact our 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 as to prevent
back flow or vacuum effects which may be damaging to the filter element.
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 to relieve pressure at 1.2 times the maximum operating pressure (not to exceed the max.
rated pressure). This helps prevent damage to the filter and element if severe stoppage or water hammer occurs.
AT NO TIME SHOULD THE INTERNAL PRESSURE EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RATED PRESSURE FOR YOUR FILTER
II. BEFORE FILTER OPERATION
There are a few tasks that must be accomplished before your MLS In-Line Filter is ready for operation. Please review the following
checklist. When all tasks are complete the filter is ready to be used.
1.
(Flanged Units Only) Is your MLS In-Line Filter placed on a firm, supporting surface? Failure to do this may cause stress
on the weld joints. Advantage recommends a concrete pad be poured under the base of the filter.
2.
Are the inlet / outlet connections securely fastened to the in-line pipe? The arrows clearly depict flow direction (see above).

  • Page 1 AT NO TIME SHOULD THE INTERNAL PRESSURE EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RATED PRESSURE FOR YOUR FILTER II. BEFORE FILTER OPERATION There are a few tasks that must be accomplished before your MLS In-Line Filter is ready for operation. Please review the following checklist. When all tasks are complete the filter is ready to be used.
  • Page 2 IV. FILTER OPERATION At this point the MLS In-Line Filter is ready for operation. Periodically (depending on liquid quality) the debris that settles out at the bottom of the filter will need to be flushed out. The drainage port located at the bottom of the filter is what makes this possible. Upon receiving your filter, you must install a valve on the drainage port.
  • Page 3 The pressure gauges that you have the option of installing can be used to monitor the pressure differential between the inlet and outlet sides of the filter. When there is a pressure loss of 5-10 PSI between the inlet and outlet side of the MLS In-Line Filter, the filter element may require cleaning.
  • Page 4 A partial hammer can occur that raises the pressure to a certain percentage of the theoretical maximum. The MLS In-Line Filter is rated to an absolute maximum pressure of 150 PSI for bolted lid models, 125 PSI for band clamp lid models.

  • Page 6 III. SYSTEM OVERVIEW The PDA/ATF-MAX system consists of the following primary components: A) PDA/ATF-MAX controller B) Power supply C) Transducer / Wiring assembly D) Mounting bracket E) Flush valve assembly The controller interface contains the controller screen and keypad interface as shown. The clear cover provides protection for the controller and can be opened with the two latches on the side of the controller housing to access the keypad.
  • Page 7 IV. OPERATION Startup 1) Plug in the power plug into a standard 115VAC wall outlet 2) Upon power-up, the company information screen will be shown for 15 seconds. 3) After 15 seconds, the screen will change to the manifold pressure screen and will begin monitoring differential pressure across the strainer.
  • Page 8 V. MENU SCREENS Power Up Screen Miller-Leaman Inc. The Power Up screen displays the company information for Miller Leaman. Each time the PDA/ATF-MAX is plugged in, or when power is returned after a loss, this screen will be displayed for 15 seconds. The 800-881-0320 Power Up screen can be viewed by unplugging the PDA/ATF-MAX’s power, then plugging it back on again.
