Installation
Requirements
Installation details depend on the local situ-
ation. Therefore, heed the following general
hints:
1.
Check
the fi lter for damage. Do not install
or commission damaged fi lters.
2.
Depressurise
the pipe before installation.
3.
Fit
fi lter in a vertical position only.
4.
Note
direction of fl ow: The direction of
fl ow is indicated by an arrow.
5.
Heed
the dead weight of the fi lter and
install a support device if necessary.
Design the support device so it can bear
a fi lter completely fi lled with liquid.
6.
Make
sure there is a direct connection
to a safety device preventing maximum
permissible limits (pressure and tempera-
ture) are exceeded.
7.
Always
install the fi lter at the point of the
pipe system where the temperature is
lowest.
8.
Provide
suffi cient space below the fi lter
for fi lter replacement (Table page 2, value
G
).
Filter installation
The fi lter comes ready for operation. When
options were ordered, you must fi rst mount
these to the fi lter in line with the respective
documentation.
– Depressurise the pipe section.
– Attach the support device if required
– Align the fi lter: The direction of fl ow is
indicated by an arrow.
– Integrate the fi lter into the pipe. Make
sure there are no leaks and the fi lter is
exactly vertical.
– Pressurise the pipe section again and
check the fi lter for tightness and correct
function.
Operation
Avoid abrupt pressure rises or drops during
fi lter operation. The fi lter can be damaged if
the pressure rises or drops too fast.
Maintenance
Always heed the prescribed service inter-
vals. Proper operation of the fi lter cannot be
warranted in case of non-compliance.
Following completion of all work, check
fi lter for leaks and ensure it is functioning
correctly.
