Pump and DE Element Filter System Installation and User’s Guide
4. Install the union elbow adaptor to the outlet port of the tank. Tighten the
union nut that is attached to the filter only hand tight. Secure the flex hose
with a hose clamp. Tighten the clamp with a screwdriver.
5. Screw the hose adaptor, item number 711006, into the inlet port of the
pump. This is the opening in the sidewall of the pump pot. Use
SOXPEHUV
tape on the threads and tighten no more than one (1) turn past hand tight.
Connect the flex hose to this adaptor with a hose clamp and tighten with a
screwdriver.
6. Install the High Flow™ manual air relief valve to the lid of the filter. The
High Flow manual air relief uses the O-ring only, there is no need for
thread sealing compound. Position the system to safely direct water
drainage. Rotate the High Flow
™
manual air relief valve to safely direct
purged air or water. Water discharged from an improperly position filter or
valve can create an electrical hazard as well as damage property.
7. Install the pressure gauge in the ¼” NPT threaded hole in the tank lid,
using
SOXPEHUV
tape on the threads.
8. Now, move the system to its final position. The system must be placed on
level solid earth. The entire system filled with water can weigh over one
hundred pounds. Position the system so that the instructions, warnings and
pressure gauge are visible to the operator. Also, position the system so
that the piping connections and drain port are convenient and accessible for
servicing and winterizing.
9. Provide sufficient clearance around the filter to permit visual verification
that the lock ring is properly installed. See Figure 10.
3. Insert the check valve into the outlet port of the filter, making sure that the
rubber diaphragm is facing outward. See Figure 9.
