Correct installation is essential for optimal performance. Follow these steps:
Inspect the Filter Housing: Ensure compatibility with the split filter element.
Check Seals and Gaskets: Verify gaskets are intact and properly positioned.
Assemble Split Sections: Align the split sections carefully within the housing.
Secure Properly: Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to pleats or support core.
Verify Flow Direction: Install the element according to the system’s flow requirements.
Test System: Conduct a short run to check for leaks or abnormal pressure drops.
Step | Action |
---|---|
1 | Remove the existing filter element or prepare the new housing. |
2 | Clean housing interior and inspect for damage. |
3 | Check gaskets and seals for integrity. |
4 | Separate the split sections carefully. |
5 | Insert each section into the housing, ensuring proper alignment. |
6 | Secure end caps or brackets without over-tightening. |
7 | Recheck flow direction and reassemble any housing covers. |
8 | Run system at low pressure to confirm proper installation. |
Avoid Damaging Pleats: Handle pleated sections carefully to prevent bending or tearing.
Use Compatible Cleaning Agents: Do not use chemicals that can corrode stainless steel.
Monitor Pressure Drops: Regularly check system pressure to detect clogging early.
Do Not Exceed Maximum Pressure: Operating above the recommended limit can deform the element.
Ensure Proper Sealing: Incorrect sealing may result in bypass and reduced filtration efficiency.
Regular maintenance ensures consistent performance and extends service life:
Cleaning: Use ultrasonic cleaning, backflushing, or approved chemical solutions suitable for stainless steel.
Inspection: Check pleats and support structure for damage or corrosion.
Replacement: Replace the element if damage or severe clogging is detected.
Handling: Avoid dropping or compressing the filter element during cleaning or installation.
Documentation: Maintain a maintenance log to track cleaning and replacement schedules.
Proper storage preserves filter integrity before installation:
Clean Environment: Store in a dust-free area to prevent contamination.
Dry Conditions: Avoid humidity to reduce corrosion risk.
Temperature Control: Maintain moderate temperature, avoiding extreme heat or cold.
Protective Packaging: Keep elements in original packaging or wrap to prevent mechanical damage.
Avoid Heavy Loads: Do not stack elements under heavy weight to prevent deformation.
Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
---|---|---|
High Pressure Drop | Clogged pleats | Clean or replace filter element |
Reduced Filtration Efficiency | Damaged or misaligned pleats | Inspect and reinstall properly |
Leakage Around End Caps | Worn gaskets or poor sealing | Replace gaskets and reseal |
Structural Deformation | Excessive pressure or mishandling | Verify system pressure and handle carefully |
Flow Reduction | Accumulated debris | Clean or replace element |
