General remarks
When installing the filter, keep in mind the following:
• Be sure that the piping is internally clean, especially downstream of the filter.
• Select the filter grade in line with the application requirements.
When selecting the filter size, take care that the maximum flow capacity is not exceeded to
make sure that filtration performance and filter lifetime are guaranteed.
• Take into account the flow direction:
• The filters must be mounted vertically:
• If the unit is integrated in a multiple line system, provide isolating valves and (if required) a
bypass.
• The automatic drain has a special connection allowing easy installation of a hose or a quick
coupling to pipe away the drained liquid. This drained liquid should be fed into a non-
pressurized vessel or drain pipe. In case two filters are installed next to each other, the drain
pipe length per filter should be at least 2 meters before connecting them together. The pipe
diameter of the collector should be at least twice the diameter of the pipes connected to the
filter drain.
