CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ROOM:
Install in a clean, dry and well-ventilated (to avoid condensation) that is protected from frost.
The filter must be installed on a horizontal slab capable of supporting the weight of the filter (or filters) under
operating conditions (see technical specifications). There must be a free space of at least 50 cm beneath the
ceiling to allow for loading and maintenance operations.
UNTREATED WATER INLET:
- The untreated water inlet pipe must be sufficiently sized to ensure the necessary flow-rate for treatment
and washing at a pressure between 1.5 and 8 bar. The supplied pressure gauges must be installed upstream
and downstream to the filter, to monitor this pressure effectively.
- These pipes must be in a material that is resistant to the untreated water.
•
The inlet and outlet pipes must be correctly supported so as not to add physical stress to the valve
or filter body.
•
The pipes must be easy to disassemble in order to facilitate loading, unloading and maintenance
operations.
•
The inlet/outlet hoses must be connected. They must be positioned such that they compensate for
the variations in the height of the filter without affecting the valve.
-If an installation involves number of parallel filters, the necessary flow-rate is the sum of the withdrawal rate
and the washing flow-rate.
WASHING WATER OUTLET:
-
The hydraulic head connects to waste with a 32 x 1" socket.
-
Washing and rinsing water must be discharged to waste with a minimum pressure break of 2 cm
(sanitary regulations).
-
Any channels, nozzles and waste water pipes must have a suitable bore and fall-off to efficiently
evacuate the maximum filter washing flow-rates. The pipe can be raised up to 1 meter above the
machine.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY:
An earthed 230V - 50 Hz power supply must be provided near to each filter (maximum power: 30 VA per filter).
