1. Safety instructions
WARNING: Avoid injury. Read and understand this manual before operating the filter.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE INJURY,
OR PROPERTY DAMAGE
. Eaton does not assume liability for any damage that occurs to
due misuse of equipment.
WARNING:
This filter is a pressure vessel designed to operate under specific
pressure, temperature, and other engineering parameters.
Follow the operating
conditions specified on each data sheet. Operating outside of these parameters can cause
damage to important pressure holding parts and sealing. Pay special attention to excess
pressure, temperature range, and operating fluid. The compatibility of filter components with
the operating fluid should always be considered before operation.
USE OF
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS COULD LEAD TO PRODUCT FAILURE, LEAKAGE,
DEATH, SEVERE INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING: Always wear safety goggles and gloves when working on the filter.
Under
working conditions, the filter housing is pressurized. Do not try to loosen or remove any part
of the filter or the filter housing during operation. The operating fluid could escape at high
pressure and high temperatures. This does not apply to the offline vessel that is not under
operation.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE
INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING: Leaking operating fluid can cause injury and burns. Equipment should be
shut down and isolated from energy sources and other equipment before any
inspection or servicing to prevent risk of shock or process fluid leakage.
Do not open
the filter housing until you make sure it is not pressurized. The filter surface may be hot and
cause burns. When changing the filter, check the operating temperature before touching
any surface during operation. If you come into contact with the operating fluid, please follow
the safety instructions provided by the fluid manufacturer.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS
WARNING COULD LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
To ensure proper fit and function, only use Eaton spare parts.
2. Installation
The filter is supplied and delivered ready to be installed. The mounting position of the filter is vertical.
The filter has to be fitted with fastening screws in size and amount according to the corresponding
fastening bore holes of the filter housings. The filter should be mounted to minimize tensile forces on the
filter housing and change-over valve. The piping should be connected with flanges.
During installation ensure that:
-
No dirt and no impurities of foreign fluids penetrate the filter.
-
The connections for input and output are correctly attached to the pipe system.
-
The pipe system is connected to the filter to minimize stress on the filter.
-
Ensure the filter element is accessible for service and change out.
Clogging indicators should be installed according to the instructions on the unit specific data sheet and
the instructions in this manual.
