filtration system is virtually maintenance free. The following are guidelines to ensure proper per-
formance and increase longevity of the system.
WEEKLY
1) Check all plumbing connections for leakage.
2) Check all electrical connections and components for signs of malfunction or poor connection.
3) Visually inspect strainer basket through lid. If cleaning is necessary, turn system off, release pressure from filter
vessel, remove strainer lid, clean basket, replace basket and lid following recommended safety procedures, and
restart system following the Start Up Procedure.
4) Check pressure gauges for proper operation.
MONTHLY
1) Place unit in "off" position.
2) Check automatic air release valve for proper operation. Slowly remove plug in top of valve; some pressure may
remain in system if valve is dysfunctional.
3) Remove manway cover and inspect media bed.
See Media Inspection instructions on Page 32.
4) Lubricate moving parts, i.e., linkage and handles.
YEARLY
1) Inspect media bed for visible contamination or extraneous material. Media should be tested to a depth of 8" to 12".
