• Never use the unit with fluids other than water.
• Never run the unit without water.
• Do not use for commercial or industrial purposes.
• Do not use in conjunction with chemicals, foodstuff, easily flammable or explosive substances.
Assembly
Use hoses that are suitable for a pressure of at least 1 bar.
How to proceed:
A
• BioPress 6000, 10000: Shorten stepped hose adapters such that the connection opening coincide with the hose
diameter. This helps to avoid pressure loss.
• Push the union nuts over the stepped hose adapters, push or turn on the stepped hose adapter, and secure with the
hose clips.
• Insert the flat sealing ring or the O ring into the union nut for the black hose adapter and screw onto the pressure
filter inlet.
• Insert the flat sealing ring including the flow indicator flap for the transparent stepped hose adapter, then screw onto
the pressure filter outlet.
The cleaning effect of the pressure filter can be checked at the transparent stepped hose adapter with flow indicator
flap.
