SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General

1. Prior to installation or any treatment given to the filter, read carefully the installation and operation instructions.
2. While treating the filter all conventional safety instructions should be observed in order to avoid danger to the workers, the public or to property in the vicinity.
3. No changes or modification to the equipment are permitted without a written notification given by the manufacturer or by its representative, on the manufacturer behalf.

Installation

1. Install the filter according to the installation instructions detailed in this manual.
2. Make sure to leave enough clearance to enable easy access for future treatments and safe maintenance operations.
3. Extra safety devices should be installed on hot water applications to avoid skin burn danger.

Operation and Maintenance

1. Loosening or unscrewing bolts should be done only after the pressure in the filter had been released.
2. Avoid splashing and water leaking to minimize slipping danger or damage to the equipment caused by moisture.
3. Always open and close valves slowly and gradually.
4. Remove grease and fat material residues in order to avoid slipping.
5. After treatment has been completed, re-assemble the protection covers.
6.  Manual cleaning of filter element using high water pressure or steam should be performed in accordance with the cleaning system instructions and without endangering the operator or his vicinity.
7. Manual cleaning of filter element using acid or other chemical agents should be performed in accordance with the relevant material safety instructions and without endangering the operator or his vicinity.

Use of Lifting Equipment

1. While using lifting equipment, make sure that the filter or the lifted part is chained securely and in a safe manner.
2. Do not leave lifted equipment if there is no necessity. Avoid working below lifted equipment.
3. Wear a safety helmet while using lifting equipment.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The Amiad series of semi-automatic filters trap dirt from water as it flows through a perforated or a weave-wire stainless steel filtration element. Filtration elements are available for various filtration degrees and are color-coded for convenient identification.

Water flows through the filter element from the inside out, so that dirt accumulates on the inner surface of the filtration element. The direction of flow is indicated by an arrow on the filter housing.

The Brushaway filters provide an excellent method of manually cleaning the filter screen without removing the screen itself. The cleaning process is based on mechanical wiping of the inner surface of the screen element and flushing the wiped debris from the filter housing by opening the flush valve.

This document is the Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual of the 6″S and the 8″ In-Line Brushaway filters.

INSTALLATION

Installation Site design recommendations

1. Select a convenient location for the installation of the filter where operation and maintenance will be optimal.
2. Refer to the drawing on page 4 for a typical installation drawing.
3. Isolation valves are needed in order to isolate filter during maintenance or repair.
4. Design the installation according to the correct direction of flow as indicated by an arrow on the filter housing.
5. Take care to leave enough room to remove the filter element for cleaning or service.
6. It is recommended that the filter housing be situated in 45⁰ downwards or in a horizontal orientation.

Installation instructions

1. Install the filter on suitable foundations. Make sure to bolt it and anchored it properly. Ensure the direction of flow according to the arrow marked on the filter housing.
2. Prior to installing the filter, flush the main line at the connection point thoroughly in order to remove large objects that may damage the filter’s internal mechanism.
3. Arrange for suitable lighting at the area of the filter to enable good visibility and safe maintenance.
4. Arrange suitable platforms and safety barriers to enable easy access to the filter without climbing on pipes and other equipment.
5. Install a non-return valve on the filter outlet port for protecting the filter from back flow or pressure surge

IMPORTANT!!

Installation of a Non-return Valve protects your filter from static backpressure and dangerous reverse flow!

TYPICAL INSTALLATION

• Dimensions refer to 8” In-line Brushaway Filter

Operation instructions

1. Cleaning the filter must be done when pressure differential across the screen reaches 0.5-bar.
2. Cleaning the Brushaway filter must be done while the filter is under pressure.
3. Open the flushing valve gradually.
4. Turn the handle clockwise a few times.
5. Close the valve gradually.
6. In case that the filter is still clogged, repeat the above while the downstream valve of the filter is closed.

In most cases, this will clean the screen. However, if necessary, close the upstream valve, drain the filter and clean it manually.

Maintenance

1. Check that the filter operates properly, following a general inspection.
2. If necessary, take care of any leakage from the spindle shaft by replacing the internal O-ring seal (#17) and lubricating it with silicon grease.
3. In case of reduction in cleaning ability of the filter, remove the screen with the Brushaway mechanism and visually check the condition of the brushes. The brush bristles should be pressed against the screen. If the bristles do not touch the screen, they should be replaced.

Warning! In order to prevent water hammer (Surge), always open and close valves in a gradual motion.
Remark: 200 microns is the finest filtration degree recommended with Brush filters.
