Diatomaceous Earth Pool Filters - DEV Series Filter
Section 3. Installation Instructions
WARNING
Use equipment only in a pool or spa installation.
Do not connect system to an unregulated city water
system or other external source of pressurized water
producing pressures greater than 35 psi.
3.1 Filter Location
1.
Select a well-drained area, one that does not fl ood
when it rains. Damp, non-ventilated areas should
be avoided.
2.
Provide solid mounting for the fi lter and pump
system. Install system on a concrete slab or solid
concrete blocks to avoid risk of settlement. Do not
use sand to level the fi lter as the sand will wash
away. Filters, once loaded with media, can weigh
up to 800 lbs.
3.
Install electrical controls at least fi ve (5) feet from
the fi lter. This will allow enough room to stand
away from the fi lter during start-up.
4.
Allow suffi cient clearance around the fi lter to
permit a visual inspection of the clamp ring.
See Figure 2.
5.
Allow suffi cient space above the fi lter to remove
the fi lter lid and fi lter element for cleaning and
servicing.
6.
Position the fi lter to safely direct water drainage.
Align the air release valve to safely direct
pressurized purged air or water.
WARNING
Water discharged from an improperly positioned fi lter
or valve can create an electrical hazard which can
cause death, serious injury or property damage.
CAUTION
Maintain your pressure gauge in good work ing order.
The pressure gauge is the primary indicator of how
the fi lter is operating.

CLEARANCE
7.
If the fi lter needs to be located above the water
level of the pool, it can be raised 2.5 ft. without
affecting the pump effi ciency. A check valve is
recommended on the suction line to the pump.
8.
If the fi lter is to be installed below the water level
of the pool, isolation valves should be installed on
both the suction and return lines to prevent back
fl ow of pool water during any routine servicing
that may be required.
3.2 Anchor Bracket Installation
In Florida, building codes require that all appliances
be securely fastened to the equipment pad in order to
withstand high wind pressures created by hurricanes.
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. provides an anchor bracket
kit for this purpose. Please see the Parts List in Section
9 of this manual for the correct part number.
NOTE Anchor screws and washers are not included
with the fi lter or the anchor bracket kit. Zodiac
recommends that a ¼" x 2¼" long stainless
steel Tapcon
®
type concrete screw be used to
mount the anchor bracket to the equipment pad.
The Tapcon type concrete screw meets Florida
buliding code requirements.
After placing the fi lter on the equipment pad, as outlined
in Section 3.1, drill a 5/32" hole in the concrete at each
of the four (4) brackets on the fi lter. (The correct size
drill bit is usually provided with the concrete screws
when purchased.)
Install the Tapcon screws and washers through each of
the four (4) anchor brackets to secure the fi lter to the
equipment pad. See Figure 3. Do not over-torque the
screws.
3.3 Filter Preparation
1.
Check carton for damage due to rough handling
in shipment. If carton or any fi lter components are
damaged, notify carrier immediately.
2.
Carefully remove the accessory package.
3.
With the carton in an upright position, remove the
fi lter tank from the carton.
CAUTION
DO NOT move the fi lter tank without the shipping
screw in place or the fi lter grids may be damaged
while installing the fi lter tank.
4.
A visual inspection of all parts should be made
now. See the parts list on page 15.
