INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS: 1"-SUPER FILTERS
(AP010B.SA0.0001)
Thank you for selecting an Amiad filter. This filter has been designed to provide years of trouble free service. Please
familiarize yourself with these instructions to ensure correct and reliable operation.
INSTALLATION
1. Amiad recommends using plastic connectors when
installing the filter onto metal pipes.
2. Use only Teflon or silicon sealing material on the
inlet/outlet connections. Do not use any sealing
material on the plastic ball valve connection to
the filter drain port. (SCREEN FILTER ONLY) This
is a compression type fitting and does not require
any sealing material.
3. Install a shut-off valve before the filter to
facilitate cleaning.
4. Install the filter with the housing oriented
downward. Make sure to install according to the
direction of water flow as shown. This filter is
available with either a Screen cylinder or Disc
element. Be sure the direction of flow is
inside/out for the Screen cylinder and outside/in
for the Disc element. See drawing.
CLEANING
The filter requires cleaning when pressure drop
between the inlet and outlet reaches 0.5-0.6 bar (7-
8 psi).
1. Close the water supply to the filter and release
pressure from the system.
2. Unscrew the lid to remove the filter element.
3. Screen cylinder: Rinse the screen with water.
Use a soft brush for hard-to-remove particles. Do
not use a metal brush which may damage the
screen.
Disc element: Twist the disc element core at each end and unscrew in a counter- clockwise direction. This loosens
the disc core. Direct a stream of water along the disc edges to rinse with a spinning action. Hand-tighten the disc
element core after cleaning.
4. Insert the filter element into the housing. Make sure that the housing and element seals are in place. Screw on the
lid until tight, then back-off 1/8 turn for proper sealing.
5. Close the drain valve and open the inlet valve to pressurize the filter. Check and correct any leaks.
Maximum pressure drop across the filter element, for a short time should not exceed 6 bar (90 psi).
An optional accessory for semi-automatic operation of the 1"-Super filter (screen element only!) is the Torpedo: By
inserting the Amiad Torpedo (cat. no. NBZZZ.00241) and mounting a manual or automatic flushing valve, the unit
will become a Turboclean filter. The Turboclean filter reduces maintenance and is an ideal solution as a sand
separator.
For more information, please consult your Amiad dealer.
WARNING: Improper flow direction or backflow
through a screen may damage the filter element.
WARNING: NEVER OPEN THE FILTER WHILE
UNDER PRESSURE!
