6.1 Installation Steps
The Rain Bird HDF 1X2 Disc Filtration System equipment is shipped in a box semi-assembled.
Please follow the steps below for a proper installation.
1. Unpack the equipment carefully and check that there no is no evident damage.
2. Confirm that all installation parameters are met in accordance with those of the equipment.
3. You can modify the height of the equipment with the adjustable supports. Once the supports
are in place adjust their height as required. Due to the equipment dimensions, the shoulders
height should be adjusted so that, the upper part of the drainage manifold is placed at a
distance of 33,2" (843 mm) from the ground. The separation between the shoulders should be
560 mm.
4. Screw the stainless steel bushing to the outlets of the three-way hydraulic valves. It is very
important to use sealer in the threads of both bushings.
5. Assemble the equipment, connecting the inlet, outlet and drainage manifolds using their
connections.
6. Install a glycerin pressure gauge 0-145 psi (0-10) bar to measure the pressure coming into the
valve. It is recommended you use liquid sealer or LOCTITE 5331, but not in excess.
7. Place the 2” NPT Cap in the open outlet of the filter base. The cap does not need sealing
because it is provided with an o-ring.
8. Place the cartridge in the filter base. Once this is completed, place the lid on the unit and close
the clamp.
9. Check all connections of the equipment and secure the base to the ground in order to avoid
vibration.
To close the filter check for debris on the 0-ring in the base. Carefully install the lid and close the
filter clamp. To close the clamp, place the bolt in the grooved seat and adjust the lever then
clamp the anti-opening device and thread the saftey screw without forcing it.
