TF1 Sigma HP Filter 22mm 62614

FERNOX 62614 TF1 Sigma HP Filter 22mm-

62614 TF1 Sigma HP Filter 22mm

Eﬃcient, high-performance ﬁlter, speciﬁcally designed for Air and Ground Source Heat Pump systems.
The TF1 Sigma HP Filter utilises a unique ﬁltration technology which is extremely effective at high ﬂow rates and across a range of debris types to ensure the system remains free of contaminants.
A durable and robust construction, the TF1 Sigma HP Filter is made from a high-quality glass reinforced engineering polymer with brass full bore valves as standard.
Convenient to clean and quick to service via the drain valve, the TF1 Sigma HP Filter does not require system shutdown or for the ﬁlter to be disassembled, resulting in less time spent on site as part of the annual maintenance.
Easy to install, this sealed ﬁlter allows for horizontal and vertical installation orientations.
Market- leading pressure differential values, ensuring the Heat Pump works at maximum COP.

Speciﬁcally designed to protect Air and Ground Source Heat Pumps, the TF1 Sigma HP Filter eﬃciently removes all types of debris from renewable heating systems using patent pending technology. The innovative TF1 Sigma HP Filter does not restrict ﬂow, even at high ﬂow rates, and will not block, ensuring the COP (co-eﬃcient of performance) of the system is maintained thereby reducing energy consumption and fuel wastage. Simple and fast to install, the TF1 Sigma HP Filter is supplied with full bore valves as standard, which results in improved system performance, and greater energy eﬃciency.

Additional Information

The TF1 Sigma HP Filter is constructed from a high strength engineering polymer, suitable for Air and Ground Source Heat Pump applications. The glass reinforced polymer has excellent hydrolysis resistance, as well as high resistance to strain and abrasion.
The polymer is compatible with glycols and additives used in heating systems.
The TF1 Sigma HP Filter has been designed to ensure there is minimal pressure loss while maintaining a high collection eﬃciency.
The TF1 Sigma HP Filter utilises a unique ﬁltration technology, combined with an engineered area of low ﬂow, to allow the ﬁlter to capture a range of system contaminants.

Application

The TF1 Sigma HP Filter has been speciﬁcally designed for use with Air and Ground Source Heat Pump heating systems. The ﬁlter can be easily ﬁtted onto either horizontal or vertical pipework, in accordance with the ﬂow direction indicated by the arrow on the manifold. Ideally the TF1 Sigma HP Filter should be ﬁtted on the return to the Heat Pump and can be installed at up to 45⁰ from the vertical position if space or head height is restricted.
The TF1 Sigma HP Filter is designed to protect the Heat Pump from the harmful effects of circulating debris, which can damage or block components within the system. Treating the system with a quality inhibitor product from the Fernox Protector range will prevent the formation of corrosion and scale long term in accordance with regulations and best practice, and will reduce the risk of premature failure or shortened system longevity.

Contaminated system water enters the TF1 Sigma HP via the manifold, then moves into the main body of the ﬁlter, carrying debris and particulate held in suspension by the water. As dirty water enters the ﬁlter body, it ﬂows towards the unique ﬁltration technology ‘Flow Disruptor’, which removes any particles held in suspension by the water.
The design of the ﬁlter manifold, combined with the unique ﬁltration technology ‘Flow Disruptor’, create a highly effective engineered area of low ﬂow within the ﬁlter body, causing particles to settle towards the base of the ﬁlter, even at high ﬂow rates. The porous design of the ‘Flow Disruptor’ permits dynamic ﬂow within the ﬁlter and encourages particles to settle and become trapped. The position of the ‘Flow Disruptor’ and engineered ﬂow paths prevents dirt escaping back into the system. All dirt captured can be easily and quickly discharged via the drain valve. This procedure is shown in the cleaning guide and does not require system shutdown or for the ﬁlter to be disassembled.
