1.2  General Safety Instructions

WARNING

MAXIMUM OPERATING PRESSURE OF THE FILTER IS 50 PSI. NEVER SUBJECT THE FILTER 

TO ANY OPERATING PRESSURE EXCEEDING 50 PSI.

This filter operates under high pressure. When any part of the circulating system, i.e., filter, pump, 

valve(s), etc. is serviced, air can enter the system and become pressurized when the system is 

restarted. Pressurized air can cause product failure or also cause the filter lid to be blown off which 

can result in death, serious personal injury or property damage. To avoid this po ten tial haz ard, fol low 

all of the in struc tions in this man u al.

WARNING

To minimize risk of severe injury or death the filter and/or pump should not be subjected to the piping 
system pressurization test.

Local codes may require the pool piping system to be subjected to a pressure test. These 
requirements are generally not intended to apply to the pool equipment such as filters or pumps.
Jandy pool equipment is pressure tested at the factory.
If however this WARNING cannot be followed and pressure testing of the piping system must include 
the filter and/or pump BE SURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

•  Check all clamps, bolts, lids, lock rings and system accessories to ensure they are properly 

installed and secured before testing.

• 

RELEASE ALL AIR

 in the system before testing.

•  Water pressure for test must NOT EXCEED 35 PSI.
•  Water temperature for test must NOT EXCEED 100°F (38°C).
•  Limit test to 24 hours. After test, visually check system to be sure it is ready for operation.  

Notice

: These parameters apply to Jandy equipment only. For non-Jandy equipment, consult equipment manufacturer.

WARNING

•  Do not connect system to an unregulated city water system or other external source of pressurized 

water producing pressures greater than 35 PSI.

•  Pressurized air in system can cause product failure or also cause the 

fi

 lter lid to be blown off which 

can result in death, serious personal injury, or property damage. Be sure all air is out of system 
before operating or testing the equipment.
