INSTALLATION OF VIRON CL SERIES
1. Install Cartridge filter on a clean, stable and level
base on which the circulation pump is located.
2. The CL Cartridge Filter has two 50mm water
connections. The 2 inlet ports (from pump) are
located at the bottom of the filter. The 2 outlet ports
are located on the opposite side of the filter. The
inlets and outlets are marked on the tank. The un-
used inlet and outlet ports should be capped using
the caps provided. For installations where the flow
rate is above 350 litres per minute, both Inlet and
outlet ports may be used. The PVC pipe can be
manifolded together to achieve a maximum flow
rate of 700 litres per minute.
3. Allow a minimum on one hour for glue to dry.
4. Using Teflon tape, screw pressure gauge into lid.
5. If the filter is installed below water level, isolation valves must be installed on the inlet and outlet to enable
the filter to be dismantled for cleaning without the loss of water from the pool or spa.
6. It is also recommended that a three way valve be installed on the return line to allow draining of water from
the pool or spa when necessary.
