►
The filter must always be fitted vertically.
►
Ensure that there is sufficient space below the filter so it can be easily
disassembled (see dimension D in the
Technical Data
).
►
For ATEX-compliant filters:
—
Filters for explosive gases as per ATEX must be earthed. For this
purpose, the filters are fitted with earthing lugs ex factory (see also the
overview drawings). Establish an appropriate local equipotential
bonding. Test and document the conductivity.
—
Make sure when attaching decals or other markings that the area they
cover does not exceed a total contiguous area of 20 cm
2
!
—
Make sure when painting that the permissible coat thickness does not
exceed the limits stipulated for the area of application.
►
When installing differential pressure gauge HZDE80/...:
Establish electrical connection.
►
Re-pressurize pipe section and check for leaks.
When installing a filter with TKM or TKA cartridge
Beware of damage due to wrong flow direction!
Heed the flow direction when installing the filter in the pipeline! The gas
must flow through the filter in the direction of the arrow on the upper
housing only. The intended flow direction for a cartridge is from bottom to
top.
A reversed air flow through the cartridge can damage the cartridge.
►
Also heed the general information on filter installation in the previous
“Installation” section.
►
Install a filter with cartridge so that the gas flow is from bottom to top.
Wear debris can exit from the cartridge, contaminate the downstream gas
network or degrade the gas quality.
►
Prevent any contamination of the downstream gas network by installing a
suitable particle filter.
