2. For units with a bottom in, top out flow configuration connect the air supply to the inlet
pipe on the top manifold. Close the outlet valve on the top manifold and the inlet valve to
the bottom manifold. Open the valve on the bottom outlet pipe and apply air pressure.
3. The blow down pressures are applicable to the filter media that has been wetted with
water only. After filtration with the product, please apply air pressure in incremental steps
to the pressures shown in Table 2: Blow Down Pressures on page 7.

8. Scientific and Laboratory Services
Pall operates a technical service to assist in the application of all filter products. This service is
readily available to you and we welcome your questions so that we can help. In addition, a full
network of technical representatives is available throughout the world.
Use of Pall Encapsulated Filter Assemblies per EC Directive 94/9/EC Equipment and Protective
Systems Intended for Use in Explosive Atmospheres (ATEX).
Installation and maintenance should be undertaken by a competent person. National and local
codes of practice, environmental regulations and Health and Safety directives must be adhered
to and take precedence over any stated or implied practices within this document.
For fluids having low conductivity, there exist the possibility of the generation of static electricity
during use with polymeric components. This could potentially lead to a static electricity
discharge resulting in the ignition of a potentially explosive atmosphere where such an
atmosphere is present. These Pall products are not suitable for use with such low conductivity
fluids in an environment that includes flammable liquids or a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Where flammable or reactive fluids are being processed through a Pall capsule assembly, the
user should ensure that spillages during filling, venting, depressurizing, draining and capsule
change operations are minimized, contained or directed to a safe area. In particular, the user
should ensure that flammable fluids are not exposed to surfaces at a temperature that may
ignite the fluid, and that reactive fluids cannot contact incompatible materials that may lead to
reactions generating heat, flame or that are otherwise undesirable.
Pall capsule assemblies do not generate heat, but during the processing of high temperature
fluids, and process upset conditions, the capsules will take on the temperature of the fluid
being processed. The user should ensure that this temperature is acceptable for the area in
which the filter is to be operated, or that suitable protective measures are employed.
