INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Secure the filter unit frame legs to a foundation. 2. Attach the inlet and outlet connections to the interconnecting piping (customer supplied). To properly support the filter unit, mount the filter in a vertical position. Take care to avoid excessive nozzle loading at the filter connections. Consult your pump manufacturer’s installation guide for minimum pipe run length between the pump outlet and the inlet of the filter unit. NOTE: Isolation/block valves (supplied by others) are required on all process connections of the filter unit so the filter can be isolated from the process liquid in the event that service is required. Pressure gauges (supplied by others) are also recommended before and after the filter. 3. Connect the drain line (customer supplied) to the filter unit’s purge valve. To avoid restricting purge flow the drain line should be: 1) the same or larger diameter as the purge valve size, 2) as short as possible, and 3) at or lower than the height of the purge valve. 4. See additional instructions for air and electrical installation instructions. CHECKLIST Complete this checklist before operating the system. Verify that all process connections are secure and free of - leaks. -Element must be clean and free of damage. -Top and bottom element seals must be properly installed. -Proper element type must be used, as process requires. -Confirm that the gasket sealing the lid to the filter housing is in good condition and properly installed. Disassembly of the unit may be required to verify above. Check Star Packing Wheel and tighten as required. Urethane seal requires only finger tight. Teflon requires a tight fit with continued tightening adjustments as needed Verify that all lid bolts are tight. Verify that cleaning disc can be activated manually and automatically if so equipped. Verify that purge valve is operable and normally in the closed position for operation and start-up. Check that the purge line is directed in a suitable fashion to accept waste when purged. Check that safety switch is operational and functional OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. The DCF-1600 cleaning disc should stroke the element clean to keep the differential pressure between the inlet and outlet of the filter below 15 PSID. Stroking too frequently will shorten the life of all wear components. Note: The burst strength of the filter elements is 110 PSID differential pressures for slotted and perforated elements, and 50 PSID for defined pore. 2. The filter unit is supplied with a valve used to purge the contaminants from the housing. This valve should be opened before the collected contaminants exceed the purge volume and causes a differential pressure increase. 3. If filter element is removed from unit, avoid highpressure washing from the outside of the element. This may force contaminants into the filter media and cause permanent blockage and/or element damage 4. Always pressurize the unit slowly on start-up and watch for any leakage. 5. The unit is equipped with a plug in the lid for placement of overpressure vents, use as an air release and/or connect for fluid filling of vessel. 6. Monitoring of the differential pressure between inlet and outlet pressures should be used to determine stroking and purging rates. Normal operation should exhibit low differential pressure that is maintained throughout. WARNING! MAXIMUM WORKING PRESSURE IS 150 PSIG (1035 kPa). OPERATE EQUIPMENT ONLY WITH SUPPLIED SAFETY DEVICES -WHICH ARE PROVEN TO BE CORRECTLY INSTALLED AND OPERATIONAL. DO NOT STROKE CYLINDER WHEN BLOCK VALVES ARE CLOSED. THIS FILTER UNIT MAY BE UNDER PRESSURE – EXTREME CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN INSPECTING OR SERVICING THE EQUIPMENT.
