WFS 101545 Operations Manual
Each filter housing holds three 2.5” diameter x 20” long filter replaceable filter cartridges.
These cartridges come in a wide variety of composition and micron size. The first two units #
1 & 2 filter the recirculating water. Units #3 & 4 are the final filters for the process water.
They catch any loose particles that may come from the resin beds.
Housings:
The filter housing assembly is comprised of the
following parts:.
Wing Nuts: Six wing nuts hold down the top cover
O-Ring: The top cover seals on a 3.5 x 180 mm Buna O-
Ring
Cartridge Nuts: Three cartridge nuts center and seal the
top of the filter cartridges
Tie Rods: Three tie rods span the filter cartridge and
with the Cartridge Nut hold the elements firmly in
place.
Centering Crosses: Three centering crosses prevent the
bottom of the cartridge elements from being off center
and aligning with the sealing rings.
Seal Rings: The seal rings provide a high-pressure
sealing surface to the bottom of the filter cartridge.
Drain Plug: A 3/8 NPT drain plug drains the dirty
chamber.
