Installation
P lease remove all shipping and crating materials carefully. Be sure to remove the plugs from the inlet and outlet
openings. Dispose of all crating materials safely.
After positioning the Model 6 Duplex Filter unit in its proper location, secure the adjustable tripod leg assemblies to
the floor or platform. (Some installations may not require the adjustable tripod leg assemblies.)
The duplex system is normally supplied with the inlet-outlet connections in a horizontal orientation (facing in
opposite directions) as shown on the last page of this manual. However, the inlet-outlet orientations can be varied
depending on your application.
The inlet service line should be connected to the inlet flange or NP T coupling located near the top of the units (above
basket level).
The outlet service line should be connected to the outlet flange or NP T coupling, located near the middle or bottom
of the units (below basket level).
There are two 1/4" NP T ports, one on the inlet tee and one on the outlet tee, of the Model 6 Duplex Filter unit.
Additionally, there is one 1/4" NP T port in each cover of the Model 6 Duplex Filter unit. These ports can remain
plugged or used for pressure gauges, or special fittings as your application requires.
Some installations require electrical grounding of all equipment, be sure to provide adequate grounding where
necessary.
After completing installation be sure to double check connections for integrity. Your Model 6 Duplex Filter unit has
been factory pressure tested leak free, therefore, any seepage problems usually occur from improper installation
connections.
You are now ready to install the filter baskets and bags. (Your Rosedale Model 6 Duplex Filter unit consists of two
Rosedale Model 6 Filter units. They are designed for continual flow through one unit while servicing the other).
Remove cover by loosening the cover eyenuts on one of the filters. The eyenuts in the slotted corners should be
loosened sufficiently to swing free. Loosen the third eyenut sufficiently to allow the top cover and closure assembly
to swing away from the top of the unit.
P lace the basket into the filter housing, make sure the basket flange is firmly seated on top of the basket collar.
Insert bag into the bag basket making sure filter bag ring is firmly seated on top of the basket flange. For best
results, be sure filter bag is installed fully extended to the bottom of the basket.
Before replacing cover assembly, inspect cover seal gasket (replacing as necessary). Close cover and alternately
tighten the three clamp assemblies evenly to ensure a leak proof seal between the cover and housing body. The
recommended torque value for 5/8"-11 closure assemblies is 150
. Repeat the above steps for installing the filter
ft-lb s
basket and bag for the other unit.
Your Rosedale Model 6 Duplex Filter unit is now ready for operation!
