YOUR MONARCH SERIES CARTRIDGE FILTER
Congratulations on your purchase of a quality product from the
Monarch Series range of Pool and Spa Equipment. You are assured of
many years of reliable and efficient performance from your Monarch
Series Filter backed by a 5 year tank guarantee.*
Monarch Series EcoPure®Cartridge Filters have been specifically
designed for the filtration of spa and swimming pool water. They
should not be used for any other purpose without first consulting
your Monarch Series Dealer or the Davey Customer Service Centre.
Monarch Series Cartridge Filters provide economy, high performance
and convenience in a well-designed pressure filter. The polyester
element can be removed quickly for rinse cleaning without water
loss. Monarch Series Cartridge Filters feature large filter areas which
ensure even water distribution, peak filtration performance and
longer filter cycles.
The corrosion-resistant construction of Monarch Series Cartridge
Filters provides long-life and durability. Monarch Series Cartridge
Filters are capacity matched with Monarch Series pool pumps
forming a total pool filtration system that lasts and lasts. Monarch
Series Cartridge Filters are also very suitable for use with other pool
pumps. Take care to match the pump and filter capacities to gain
maximum performance and efficiency.
SPARKLING CLEAR WATER DIFFERENCE
Cartridge filtration is an effective trouble-free proven method of
filtration. Pool water enters the filter and passes through a polyester
element cartridge. Suspended particles are trapped and the water
is returned to the pool. As the build-up of dirt in the element
increases, so the water pressure rises and the flow decreases. When
the pressure reaches an unacceptable level, the element must be
removed and cleaned. (Spray washing with a common garden hose
is generally sufficient).

INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS LOCATION
The filter should be placed in its permanent location, preferably as
close to the pool as practicable. Position the filter tank and pump
on a level concrete slab or similar base. Allow sufficient space
around the filter for routine maintenance and provide for adequate
ventilation and drainage.
Place the pump in position on the slab and locate the filter alongside
with the appropriate pump inlet connection oriented towards the
pump. Refer to the specification section for the minimum clearance
measurements required for each model.
WEATHER PROTECTION
Monarch Series Cartridge Filters are constructed of corrosion
resistant materials. However, to ensure years of reliable performance,
it is recommended that the filtration system is adequately protected
from the weather.
ASSEMBLY
Assemble the pressure gauge to the filter lid using Teflon tape on the
male thread. Do not over-tighten.
PIPE CONNECTIONS
Piping should be independently supported and not impose heavy

If the pump and filter are located below pool water level, it is
necessary to fit isolating valves in the pipe between the pump and
the pool, and in the return line from the filter to the pool.
Barrel unions need to be hand tightened only. No sealant, glues
or silicones are required.

1. PUMP TO THE FILTER
Monarch Series Cartridge Filters are equipped with two inlet ports
marked ‘INLET’. Select the inlet port most suitable for the installation
and plug the other inlet port with the blanking cap provided. Using
the barrel unions provided, connect the pool pump delivery piping
to the selected inlet port. Tighten by hand only. Ensure the oring on
the fitting is clean, lubricated with oring lubricant and in the correct
position.
2. FILTER TO POOL RETURN
Using quick connect couplings, connect the pool return piping
to the filter fitting marked ‘OUTLET’. Tighten the fitting by hand
only. Ensure the oring on the fitting is clean, lubricated with oring
lubricant and in the correct position.
The filter base is provided with four mounting holes to enable it to
be secured, if required.

5. Record the pressure gauge reading or mark the needle

6. Operate the filter for a sufficient time to circulate the total
pool water volume daily. The filter should also be operated
at all times the pool is in use and for about one hour
afterwards. During winter, the running time may be reduced.
Filter operating requirements will vary for spa applications,
depending upon the system design, type and size of spa.
Consult your builder or spa supplier.

Please consult your local pool shop regularly to have your water
tested.
NOTE: Algae, calcium, clay, sun tan oil and body oils can form a
coating on the element which may not be easily removed with
normal hosing. These materials can be removed by soaking
the element in a de-greaser and/or de-scaler. Your local Davey
Dealer will be able to recommend suitable products.
Failure to undertake regular maintenance may cause damage
not covered by warranty.

FILTER CARE
The Monarch Series Cartridge Filter is the heart of the pool
equipment installation. Proper care and maintenance will add many
years of service and enjoyment to your pool. Keep the exterior of the
filter clean using a mild detergent and water.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Reduced flow of water to the pool generally indicates the filter is
ready to be cleaned. Check the filter pressure gauge. (See section
on ‘Filter Operation’). If cartridge cleaning is required, perform the
steps described earlier in ‘Cartridge Cleaning Procedure’. If there is
still reduced flow after cleaning, check for blocked or plugged lines
which could restrict the volume of water entering the pool.
In the event of installation or operation difficulties with your
Monarch Series Filtration Equipment, contact the supplier from
whom the filter was purchased or contact the Davey Customer
Service Centre for assistance.
REMOVAL OF THE FILTER
Should it be necessary to remove the filter, the following procedure
should be followed :

4. Remove: – piping connection to the pump
– piping connection to the pool return
5. Remove filter.
Dirt & debris returning to your pool may indicate the pressure
relief valve has been activated. Remove & clean the element
and check that valve inside base of filter is free of foreign
matter.
s0AGEs
Danger HIGH PRESSURE. Relieve internal pressure before
adjusting locking rings or opening filter.

s0AGEs
To avoid explosion and possible severe or fatal injury, filter
pressure must not exceed 280kPa. Do not test filter with
compressed air. Check that all clamps and fasteners are in
good condition and are firmly secured before pressurising
system. Never adjust clamps or fasteners while filter is
pressurised.
NOTE: When making any enquiries about your Davey Filtration
Equipment, be certain to quote the Model Number from the
nameplate on the equipment.
DANGER - Hazardous suction. Do not block water entry into
filtration system with any part of your body as the pressure
can trap hair or body parts, causing severe injury or death.
Do not block suction. Turn off pump immediately if someone
becomes trapped.
Caution! Do not add chemicals directly to the pool skimmer.
Adding undiluted chemicals may damage pump and filter and
void warranty.
Small children using the pool or spa must ALWAYS have close
adult supervision.

Routine Maintenance tasks – to maximise the life of your pool
equipment & personal safety, use this checklist once a week.
Turn pump off first.
a. Make sure that any pressure gauges are in working condition
and the operating pressure is within limits as specified on the
product.
b. Make sure that each suction inlet, and main drain has a cover
that is securely attached and in safe working condition.
c. Make sure that all skimmer covers are securely attached and in
safe working condition. These should be replaced every 3 to 4
years.
d. Remove any obstructions or debris from the main drain cover.
e. Ensure the skimmer baskets and the pump hair and lint pots are
free of leaves and debris at least once a week.
f. Remove obstructions and combustibles from around the pump
motor.
g. Make sure all wiring connections are clean and that all wiring
and electrical equipment is in good condition. Damaged wiring
must be repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician as soon as
damage is discovered.
h. Check water balance and sanitiser levels at your local pool shop.
s0AGEs
WARNING! Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown
or disembowel bathers. Do not block suction. Do not use or
operate swimming pools, spas or spa baths if a suction cover is
broken, missing or loose. Two suction covers and inlets must
be provided into every pump to avoid suction entrapment.
