Mooney 30, 30A, 30S Filter Instruction Manual | 1

Product Description
The Type 30/30A/30S/ Mooney Filter is designed
to remove dirt and other particulates in the pilot
supply that could affect the resrictor or variable
orifice in the pilot.
The Filter can be used in a variety of other gas and
liquid applications.
Installation
The following instructions apply to mounting the Type
30/30A/30S/ Mooney Filter on the Flowgrid regulator,
FlowMax regulator and connecting to the pilot system.
Refer to the Flowgrid regulator, FlowMax regulator,
and Pilot IOM manuals for installation instructions and
start-up procedures. Figure 1 - The Type 30A Mooney Filter with Filter
Housing removed allowing easy inspection of the
element. Mounted on a 2” large single Port Flowgrid
Regulator with Series 20 Pilot and Type 24 Restrictor.
1. Personnel: Installation of the Filter should be
made by qualified personnel familiar with high
pressure piping and pilot operated regulators.
2. Prior Inspection: Inspect the Filter for any damage
that might have occurred in shipping. Make sure
the body ports are clear of foreign material.
3. Orientation: The Type 30/30A/30S/ Mooney Filter
should be installed with the Drain Plug down to
allow drainage of liquids that may accumulate in
the Filter Housing (Refer to Figure 2, page 2).
4. Filter Mounting: Apply pipe dope a 1/4 inch NPT
schedule 80 seamless pipe nipple and mount filter
by connecting the INLET connection on the filter to
the body tap on the valve.
5. Filter Outlet: Run 3/8 inch tubing or 1/4 inch pipe
from the filter OUTLET port to the INLET side of the
restrictor in the pilot system of the regulator. The
Type 30/30A/30S/ Mooney Filter has tow OUTLET
ports for ease of tubing. Block the other port with
the plug provided.
Note: To avoid galling when stainless steel
to stainless steel connections are made, use
a lubricant (such as NEVER SEEZ by Bostik).
For best results, LIGHTLY lubricate the female
threads. Mixing the lubricant with pipe dope is
also acceptable. Do not exceed more than 1/4 turn
past the point the threads start to bind.
Scope
This manual provides installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the Type 30/30A/30S/ Mooney™
Filters. Instructions for the Flowgrid™regulator, FlowMax™ regulator, and Pilot will be found in separate manuals.
Personal injury, equipment damage, or
leakage due to explosion of accumulated
gas or bursting of pressure containing parts,
may result if this FILTER is overpressured, or
is installed where service conditions could
exceed the limits given in the specification of
this manual, or on the nameplate, or where
conditions exceed any ratings of the adjacent
piping or piping connections. Verify the
limitations of both valve and pilot to ensure
neither device is overpressured. To avoid
such injury or damage, provide pressure
relieving or pressure limiting devices (as
required by the Title 49, Part 192, of the U.S.
code of Federal Regulations, by the National
Fire Codes of the National Fire Protection
Association, or by other applicable codes),
to prevent service conditions from exceeding
those limits. Additionally, physical damage
to the valve/regulator, codes break the pilot
or filter off the main valve, causing personal
injury and/or property damage due to
explosion of accumulated gas. To avoid injury
and damage, install the filter in a safe location.

Start-up Operation
The Type 30/30A/30S/ Mooney Filter does NOT
require any special start-up procedures. Start-up
of the Mooney Filter should be made by qualified
personnel familiar with high pressure systems and
pilot operated regulators.
Consult the instruction manual for the valve and
pilot being used. Some valves and pilots can be
damaged if not installed and put into operation
correctly.
Maintenance
Filter element is subject to plugging and must be
inspected and replaced as necessary. The fre-
quency of inspection and replacement of the filter
element depends on severity of service conditions
and the length of time in service.
Figure 2
Disassemby
1. After depressurizing main valve and filter
unscrew and remove Filter Housing from the
Filter Body.
2. Inspect Filter Element and replace if necessary.
3. Remove Filter O-Ring. A paper clip or other
suitable tool can be used. Inspect for defects
and replace if necessary.
Assembly
1. Lubricate O-ring with parker O-Lube (or equiva-
lent Petroleum based lubricant) and place back
in the Filter Body.
2. If the Filter Guide is removed, apply a small
quantity of Lock- Tight (or equivalent) to the
threaded area and screw hand tight into Filter
Body.
3. Lubricate the threads of the Filter Housing with
Lubraplate (or equivalent Petroleum based
lubricant).
4. Place Filter Element in Filter Housing and screw
Housing into Filter Body snugly (over tightening
and O-Ring joint will not improve the seal). The
element will guide itself into place regardless of
the orientation of the Filter.
Parts List
Before disassembly, make sure the regulator
and filter have been isolated from the process
by closing block valves on the inlet and
outlet sides of the regulator. Safety release
pressure and process fluid from body and
pilot system. Failure to properly complete
these steps may result in personal injury and
property damage.
