Operating Instructions and Parts List

Installation Procedures

This filter should only be installed

by qualified personnel.

EQUIPMENT INSPECTION

Carefully inspect equipment before

installing. Occasionally, products are

damaged in transit. Any damaged

filter components can cause failure and

should be replaced immediately.

EQUIPMENT LOCATION

• Mount the filter on a level concrete

slab. The base of this filter has

four mounting holes to provide

for secure anchoring to the slab,

(mounting screws are not included).

• Provide a minimum of 6 inches of

clearance around the filter from

walls or structure to permit visual

inspection of the unit.

• Provide sufficient clearance above

the filter to remove the filter top

assembly for servicing and cleaning.

The amount of clearance varies by

model. Refer to Table 2 on page 4

for the required clearance.

• Install electrical controls at least 5

feet from the filter.

• Locate equipment out of direct

sunlight to prolong the life of the

equipment.

• Position the filter so that piping

connections, control valves, drain

and safety latch are accessible

for servicing and winterizing. If

necessary, the safety latch can be

moved to the opposite side of filter

tank to provide easier access (See

Figure 4).

Do not operate the

filter without the

safety latch in place. Doing so could

result in the locking ring loosening from

the filter tank, causing system failure.

PLUMBING

ensure filter and all

piping can be

drained for winterizing.

Over-tightening

fittings can crack

filter ports.

Do not use pipe

thread compounds

to seal connections. They will damage

the housing material, causing the

connection to crack and leak. Only use

thread sealant tape, (or equivalent

sealant that is designed for plastics) on

threaded connections to filter ports.

• Piping must conform to local/state

plumbing and building codes.

• Support pipe independently to

prevent strains on the filter.

• For ease of maintenance, install

union couplings near inlet and

outlet ports.

• Valves installed near both inlet and

outlet of filter will isolate the filter

and ease servicing.

• Install heater downstream of filter.

Install check valve between filter

and heater to prevent hot water

from backing up into filter if heater

does not incorporate one. Damage

to filter modules caused by excessive

heat will void the warranty.

• A check valve installed before the

filter inlet will prevent contaminants

from draining back into the pool.

• A valve and piping installed on the

drain port will help divert water

away from the equipment area

when servicing the filter.

• If system is equipped with an inline

chlorinator or chlorine generating

system, install the filter upstream

of these items. Install a check

valve between the filter and the

chlorinator to prevent highly

chlorinated water from entering the

filter.

ELECTRICAL

Ensure filter grounding and bonding

meets local and national codes.

ASSEMBLY

This filter is pre-assembled at the

factory. The only assembly required at

installation is the installation of the

pressure gauge and placement of the

safety latch.

Pressure Gauge

Use thread sealant tape to seal the

threads of the gauge. Install the

pressure gauge in the 1/4 inch NPT

port in the top of the filter (marked

"Pressure Gauge").

The pressure gauge

is the primary

indicator of filter performance. maintain

the pressure gauge in good working

order. If the gauge is damaged, replace

it immediately.

Safety Latch

If necessary, the safety latch can be

moved to the opposite side of the filter

tank to provide easier access (See

Figure 4).

Air Bleed Tube

When installing the cartridge in the

filter base, ensure the tube is inserted

in the center portion of the cartridge

support, if equipped (See Figure 5). This

will help to ensure the tube is correctly

positioned inside the top support ring of

the filter housing.

NEw POOL/SPA INSTALLATIONS

• Thoroughly clean a new pool before

filling pool and operating filter.

• A typical pool installation requires

approximately one week of

operation to obtain final clarity.

• After initial cleanup, follow the

instructions in the "Cartridge

Cleaning" section of this owner's

manual (Page 8).
