Installation - TLV SF1 Manuel D'utilisation

4. Installation

CAUTION
• Take measures to prevent people from coming into direct contact with product outlets.
• Install for use under conditions in which no freeze-up will occur.
• Install for use under conditions in which no water hammer will occur.
1. Ensure the filter grade (μm) is correct by checking the numbers at the end of the model name
on the nameplate and on the bottom of the filter.
2. Before installation, be sure to remove all protective seals.
3. Install the separator filter in a location where the removal and filtration of entrained dirt, scale
and condensate would be most effective. (For example, on a main or branch at the inlet of
equipment requiring high-quality dry steam.)
4. Install valves (A) (B) at the inlet and outlet of the separator filter and a piping blowdown
pipe/valve (C) before the inlet valve (A). (See the "Typical Piping Flow" diagram in the "For
Longer Filter Life" section on page 7)
5. Before using the product, close the inlet valve (A), open the piping blowdown valve (C) and
blow out the piping to remove any piping scraps, dirt and oil. Close the piping blowdown
valve (C) when finished. (See the "Typical Piping Flow" diagram in the "For Longer Filter Life"
section on page 7)
6. Install pressure gauges at the separator filter inlet and separator filter outlet or the pressure
detection port in order to monitor the pressure differential.
7. Install the separator filter so the arrow on the body is pointing in the direction of steam or
air flow and the condensate outlet is on the bottom.
8. The product must be installed horizontally and with no more than 10° inclination horizontally
and front-to-back.
The product should be installed so that the letters TLV on the body are horizontal.
• Installation, inspection, maintenance, repairs, disassembly, adjustment
and valve opening/closing should be carried out only by trained
maintenance personnel.
Allowable Inclination: 10˚
