General Safety Instructions
This manual contains important information about the installation, operation and safe use of this
product. This information should be given to the owner/operator of this equipment.
1. Use equipment only in a pool or spa installation.
2. Before repositioning valve(s) and before beginning the assembly, disassembly, or adjustment of the clamp, or any
other service of the circulating system; (A) turn the pump off and shut off any automatic controls to ensure the system
is not inadvertently started during servicing; (B) open the air release valve; (C) wait until all pressure is relieved (air will
have stopped flowing from the air release valve).
3. Whenever installing the filter clamp follow Section 3.4 of this manual, "Locking Ring/Tank Top Assembly Installation".
4. Once service on the circulation system is complete, follow Section 4 of this manual, "Start-up and Operation".
5. Maintain circulation system properly. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
6. Be sure that the filter is properly mounted and positioned according to these installation instructions.
7. Do not pressure test above 35 PSI. Pressure testing must be done by a trained pool professional.

Introduction

Description
Cartridge filters do not require sand or diatomaceous
earth as the filter medium. Instead they contain a filter
cartridge element which is easily removed for cleaning
or replacement.
Dirty water flows into the filter tank and is directed
through the filter cartridge. The debris is collected on
the surface of the cartridge as the water flows through
it. The water will travel through the central filter
core towards the bottom of the filter into the lower
manifold. Clean water is returned to the swimming
pool through the filter outlet port at the tank's bottom.
As debris collects in the filter, the pressure will rise and
water flow to the pool will diminish. The filter cartridge
must be cleaned when the operating pressure of the
filter rises 10 psi from the operating pressure of a
clean cartridge. See Section 6 "Cleaning the Filter".
NOTE: A filter removes dirt and other suspended particles but
does not sanitize the pool. Pool water must be sanitized
and chemically balanced for clear water. The filtration
system should be designed to meet local health codes. At
a minimum, the system should turnover the total volume
of water in your pool two (2) to four (4) times in a 24 hour
period.

General Requirements
1. For best overall performance place the system as
close to the pool as possible.
2. The filter should be located on a level concrete slab
so that the orientation of the valve outlets and the
pressure gauge are convenient and accessible for
the installation and operation of the unit.
3. Protect the filter from the weather.
4. If fitting a chlorinator and/or any other device into
the filtration plumbing circuit, great care must be
exercised to ensure that the appliance is installed
in accordance with the Manufacturer's Instructions
and any applicable standards that may exist.
5. Use Jandy universal unions to connect each
component of the water conditioning system for
future servicing. All Jandy filters come with these
type of fittings.
WARNING
The maximum operating pressure for this filter is 50 psi.
Never subject the filter to operating pressure exceeding
50 psi. Operating pressures above 50 psi can cause
product failure or also cause the lid to be blown off,
which can result in death, serious personal injury, or
property damage.
6. When performing hydrostatic pressure tests or
when testing for external leaks of the completed
filtration and plumbing system, ensure that
the maximum pressure the filtration system is
subjected to does not exceed the maximum
working pressure of any of the components within
the system.
