WATTS 70608 Gas Filter for Wall Boilers

Installation

This filter, by reason of its limited dimensions, is particularly suitable for installation on boilers (fixed to wall or ground) and water heaters (instant or storage models).
Check that the filter suits the proper use and that all technical data are not exceeded.
Do not install the filter on plastered walls.
To install the filter use suitable tools and operate on the threading hubs.
Assemble the filter in such a way that the cover can be easily removed for inspection or cleaning.
Ensure that the gas flow direction is that indicated on the filter.
It can be assembled both on horizontal and vertical piping.

Maintenance

Change the filter element when Δp between the pressure taps connections exceeds 10 mbar; anyway it is recommended to replace the filter element at least once a year.
To replace the filter element you need to:
cut off the gas flow by closing the cut off cock;
unscrew the screws and remove the cover;
remove the filter element and clean the filter housing carefully;
replace the old filter element with a new one;
reassemble the filter cover ensuring that the guides inside the cover are aligned with the filter element and then tight the screws again;
check for any gas leak from the filter cover.
