Section 2. General Information
2.1 Introduction
This manual contains information for the proper instal-
lation and operation of the Jandy
®
CL and CV Series
Cartridge Filters. Procedures in this manual must be
followed exactly. To obtain additional copies of this
manual contact us at 707.776.8200 ext. 237. For address
information see back cover.
2.2 Description
Cartridge filters do not require sand or diatomaceous
earth as the filter medium. Instead, the filter contains
filter elements which are easily removed for cleaning or
replacement.
Dirty water flows into the filter tank through the water
line connected to the lower bulkhead (inlet) on the
bottom half of the tank body. It is directed through the
filter cartridge inside of the filter. The debris is collected
in the filter and the clean water flows out of the filter
through the upper bulkhead (outlet) on the bottom half
of the tank body. Clean water is returned through the
piping system to the pool.
As debris collects in the filter, the pressure will rise
and water flow to the pool will diminish. The filter will
eventually become so plugged with debris that it will be
necessary to remove the filter cartridges and clean them
with soap and water.

2.3 General Requirements
1.
For best overall performance place the system as
close to the pool as possible.
2. The filter should be located on a level concrete
slab so that the orientation of the valve outlets and
the pressure gauge are convenient and accessible
for the installation and operation of the unit.
3. Protect the filter from the weather.
4. If fitting a chlorinator and/or any other device into
the filtration plumbing circuit, great care must be
exercised to ensure that the appliance is installed
in accordance with the Manufacturer’s Instructions
and any standards that may exist.
5.
We recommend the use of barrel unions to connect
each component of the water conditioning system
to ease in future servicing. Barrel unions are
provided with all Jandy filters.

6.
When performing hydrostatic pressure tests or
when testing for external leaks of the completed
filtration and plumbing system, ensure that
the maximum pressure the filtration system is
subjected to
does not exceed the maximum
working pressure of any of the components
within the system.
