Installation of the 3P Volume Filter VF1 combi
in the tank

How it works:
1. As water arrives the level builds up and
is equally distributed across the cascade
2. Pre-cleaning through the cascades.
Largest dirt particles are led across the
primary filter cascades directly to the
stormwater.
3. Pre-filtered water then flows over
the secondary filter sieve
(mesh size 0.65 mm). Due to the
special mesh structure of the sieve,
any dirt washes directly into the
stormwater. Very low maintenance.
Installation advice 3P Volume Filter combi:
• Connections to the 3P Volume Filter VF1 combi can be made with universal connectors.
• Rainwater enters through the upper inlets, at DN 100. For roof areas up to 175 m²
connect from either right or left.
• For roof areas above 175 m² we recommend you connect from both sides, in order to obtain
the maximum filter efficiency.
• Saw off 1 cm from the outside of the selected inlet(s).
• Cleaned water is led via the outlet at DN 125 to the storage tank.
• Dirty water goes via the outlet at DN 125 to waste.

Maintenance advice:
The filter requires cleaning regularly. If it is not raining unscrew the
lid of the housing and clean with a water jet the tray and the filter
element.
Then remove the filter element. Using a 3 mm Allen key undo the
screws retaining the filter mesh.
Rinse the filter mesh with water. Clean with mildde tergent and a
stiff brush, both sides to help dissolve any fatty deposits orhydro-
carbon build up. Rinse it again. Do not use a metal brush which
may damage the filter mesh. You may also put the filter mesh into a
dishwasher.
After cleaning examine the filter by holding up against the light and
inspect for any blocked holes in the filter mesh. If the filter is clean
put the filter mesh back and re-fix in position. Insert the filter
element into the housing.
