Before Installation
Before Installation
Before installing the filter, make sure that the system complies with any
local laws or regulations.
The IMB System is not equipped, in its standard version, with anti-flooding devices or
with devices aimed at verifying, checking and triggering an alarming in the event of
uncontrolled water leaks. If necessary, purchase and install a suitable anti-flooding device
separately.
Ensure there is an appropriately size drain available for the back washing
Do not install the IMB System downstream of boilers or in applications involving the
passage inside the filter of water above 30 °C. Install the IMB filter upstream of the
equipment to be protected.
Pay attention to the threads of the connections that could cause hand cuts and
abrasions.
Installation Note:
A water filter system/tap, like any product, has a limited life and may
eventually fail. Also sometimes failure happens early due to unforeseen circumstances.
To avoid possible property damage, this product should be regularly examined for
leakage and/or deterioration and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to an
appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those applications
where any leakage could cause property damage, and/or the water supply should be
turned off if no one is home/present.
Positioning the IMB System
The IMB System must be installed in a hygienically suitable, dry, clean place, indoors,
away from: frost, direct exposure to sunlight, humidity and atmospheric agents (rain,
snow, hail).
Do not install the IMB System in wells, near drains or in foul-smelling places.
Do not install it where there may be chemical vapors, gases or fumes of any kind. Avoid
installation in confined spaces that restrict performance or maintenance operations.
The permissible limiting values of the environmental parameters for the installation of
the IMB System are: Min/Max Ambient Temperature 0 - 40 °C (protect from freezing).
Assembly
The filter is supplied with the water inlet on the left.
