Symbols
Filter / Regulator
Installation
1. The Filter / Regulator should be installed with reasonable
accessibility for service whenever possible – repair service kits are
available. Keep pipe or tubing lengths to a minimum with inside
clean and free of dirt and chips. Pipe joint compound should be
used sparingly and applied only to the male pipe – never into the
female port. Do not use PTFE tape to seal pipe joints – pieces have
a tendency to break off and lodge inside the unit, possibly causing
malfunction. Also, new pipe or hose should be installed between the
Filter / Regulator and equipment being protected.
2. The upstream pipe work must be clear of accumulated dirt and
liquids.
3. Select a Filter / Regulator location as close as possible to the
equipment being protected.

CAUTION
Polyurethane bowls, sight glass and sight domes on these units may be
attacked by certain chemicals. Never use solvents like carbon tetrachloride,
trichlorethylene, acetone, ketones, certain alcohols, or paint thinner to clean
any parts. These elements can cause crazing or failure of the plastic parts.
The polyurethane resin parts are compatible with most hydrocarbon based
synthetic lubricants but, before using, check with the manufacturer of the
lubricant or oil for compatibility with polyurethane resin.
TO CLEAN POLYURETHANE BOWLS USE MILD SOAP AND WATER
