Filter element installation / servicing
During servicing, the external surfaces of the filter assembly
must be cleaned to remove any dust deposits.
Servicing must be conducted using suitable tools that do not
present a hazard. Servicing must not be carried out when a
potentially explosive atmosphere is present.
Refer to Service Parts List (Section 9) for item numbers for
applicable replacement element series. Remove and replace
element as follows:
7.1
Turn off and depressurize the system.
Open one or both drain plugs (8) on the filter head
and drain the filter housing. Reinstall and tighten
the drain plugs.
7.2
Unscrew and remove the filter bowl assembly (2) from
head (1) counter-clockwise when viewed from below. It
will be necessary to use a 1" socket wrench on the
hexagon on the bowl to initially loosen the bowl.
NOTE: The UH239 series assembly is equipped with Pall’s
'Auto-Pull' extraction mechanism to facilitate filter element
removal. While removing the cover, tabs on the filter element
endcap lock into hooks in the cover and the element is
automatically pulled from the nipple.
7.3
Element replacement (UE219 Series): Remove filter
element (9), if already fitted, and carefully inspect the
interior surface (flow through the element is in-to-out) for
visible contamination. Normally no dirt should show, but
visible dirt or particles can be an early warning of
system component failure. Discard both the filter
element and its O-ring. The filter element is NOT
CLEANABLE. Any attempt to clean the filter element
can cause degradation of the filter medium and allow
contaminated fluid to pass through the filter element.
WARNING:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN OR RE-USE THE
ELEMENT.
ONLY USE GENUINE PALL REPLACEMENT FILTER
ELEMENTS. USE OF SUBSTITUTE ELEMENTS MAY
INVALIDATE PRODUCT WARRANTY.
CAUTION:
Filter elements should be replaced upon indication
or at specified intervals, six months maximum.
Failure to change the filter element will cause the
filter to go on bypass.
