MAINTENANCE
1:==::]
Certain solvents, paints and chemi-
cals may attack plastic bowl and can
cause bowl failure. Do not use near
these materials. When bowl be-
comes dirty, wipe only with a clean,
dry cloth. Immediately replace any
crazed, cracked, damaged or dete-
riorated plastic bowl with a new
plastic bowl. Reinstall metal bowl
guard.
Be sure to read all "Warnings" and "Cau-
tions" in this manual and on the unit
before installation or using this equip-
ment.
Install filter as close as possible to point
where air is being used. Install main air
shut-off valve and standard pipe union
(supplied by user) upstream of filter to
allow maintenance to unit.
Install unit with air flow through filter in
-direction of arrow on top of unit.
Minimum 1/2" piping is recommended.
Avoid using fittings, couplings, etc. that
restrict air flow.
Mount filter in a vertical position.
Do not install filter in an application
where the pressure drop will exceed 20
psi. For example, a quick opening valve
located upstream from the filter could
cause a momentary pressure drop in
excess of 20 psi.
Maximum inlet pressure and operating
temperature is: 150 PSIG (10.3 bar) and
150° F (65.6° G}.
A 6' length of vinyl tubing is shipped
loose with the unit. Slide over automatic
drain which protrudes from bottom of
bowl. Place other end of vinyl tubing
into appropriate receptable (i.e. below
booth grating, can, etc.). Prevent vinyl
tubing from becoming kinked which
would prevent free movement of liquids
discharged from the automatic drain.
An optional manual drain (HAF-11 ) can
be installed in place of the automatic
drain.
1.Before performing maintenance on
unit, close main shut-off valve located
upstream of filter. Bleed off residual
air in unit.
2. To open filter, press button located on
clamp ring and rotate ring either clock-
wise or counterclockwise while pulling
down on ring. The metal bowl guard and
plastic bowl can then be removed from
the filter head.
3. Remove the filter element by loosening
counterclockwise. Clean or replace the
filter element. Frequency of element
replacement will-depend upon air qual-
ity, air usage, and condition of the air
piping. It is recommended to check the
element change indicator daily, and re-
place when indicator turns red.
4. Inspect "0" ring for damage. Replace if
necessary.
5. Inspect plastic bowl for signs of damage
such as cracks, crazing or deterioration.
Replace if necessary. See "Caution" in
Column 2.

Risk of injury. Do not place unit in

6. Before placing unit back into service,
make sure plastic bowl and metal bowl
guard are properly installed and securely
locked in place.

erly after unit is in operation. Refer to
Service Bulletin SB-6-149 which provides
automatic drain service information. Re-
place if necessary.
