1. When to change the HAYFLOW filter element?
Fluid through the filter medium creates a pressure drop across the system. This
pressure increases as the element continues to trap contamination from the flow
system. The pressure drop is the best indication of when to change the HAYFLOW
element.
Under normal circumstances and unless otherwise indicated on the datasheet, the
recommended maximum pressure drop should not exceed 2.5 bar (36 psi). The
optimal pressure drop and the frequency of element change-out can only be
determined by experience with each process.

3. Starting up again
Close the filter housing and start up the filtration process following the installation
instructions supplied with the housing.

2. Installing a new HAYFLOW filter element
●
Preparing the housing
1. The filter housing has to be opened according to the installation and maintenance
instructions delivered together with the specific housing.
2. Remove the used filter element from the basket (Photo 1). The element can be
easily lifted from the basket by the handles of the SENTINEL
®
ring, at the cut
handle in the centre sleeve or at both. Dispose of in an appropriate manner.
3. Clean the housing/basket if necessary, paying special attention to the O-rings and
sealing surfaces. With another tool the basket can be lifted up from the housing
until it can be taken out by hand (photo 2). Do not use this tool to carry the basket
around.
4. Replace O-Rings of the housing when deformed or damaged with new O-Rings of
the correct material.
●
Installing your new HAYFLOW element
1. Remove the label. Note: the label contains the batch and product code numbers
and should be retained as a reference.
2. Insert the HAYFLOW installation tool into the element (photo 3) and push the
installation tool down to the bottom of the element.
3. Install the element with help of the installation tool into the basket. Push it down
until it sits at the bottom (photo 4).
4. Remove the installation tool by pulling it out.
5. Check that the SENTINEL ring sits properly on the machined seat (photo 5).
6. See that every basket is fitted with a new filter element.
