INSTALLATION
The IntaKlean triple action filter is suitable for installation on any central heating system
and can be fitted anywhere in any orientation.
For best performance and filter protection however, we recommend that the IntaKlean
is installed on the return leg of the circuit, between the last radiator and the boiler to
gain the maximum advantage of the IntaKlean’s vortex technology.

INSTALLATION
Ensure that the system is suitably drained down and all system pressure has been
released.
On open vented systems, make sure that the feed and expansion tank is either isolated
or “tied up”.
When siting the IntaKlean ensure that the collection vessel is positioned to allow access
and removal of the bottom cover, withdrawl of the magnetic element and venting air.
Having removed the prescribed section of pipework, make sure that the open ends of
both pieces are free of debris and ready to receive the nut and olive. Fit both isolation
valves but do not tighten fully.

INSTALLATION
lip the collection vessel between the isolation valves making sure that the sealing
washers are fitted and that the flow direction arrow on the body is pointing in the same
direction as the flow.
The air vent must be at the top of the collection vessel and the cover at the bottom.
Hand tighten the valves to the collection vessel before fully tightening.
WARNING: Over tightening the connection to the collection vessel can cause
irreparable damage to the vessel.
Fully tighten the compression joint on the ball valves.
The installation is now complete.
To change to the horizontal pipe configuration, loosen the retaining nut to the body
and then rotate the body to the desired orientation before re-tightening the joint.

COMMISSIONING
The commissioning procedure should be carried out as follows;
• Open the lower isolation valve to the IntaKlean – leave the upper most isolation
valve closed.
• Making sure that all open ends of the system are closed, begin to refill the system.
• Bleed radiators as required.
• Open the air vent on the IntaKlean and bleed the air until water starts to flow.
Close the air vent.
• Open the upper isolation valve and fill the remaining volume of the system.
• Open the air bleed again to ensure all air has been removed from the filter.
N.B. – Air may continue to be present in system pipework for a small period as the
central heating is run after installation of the IntaKlean. We recommend that you check
the air bleed again to ensure that all air has been purged from the system.
CLEANING AND SERVICING
Prior to cleaning the IntaKlean, ensure that the working environment is safe.
Inta recommend that the boiler is switched off and that the system is allowed to cool to
ambient temperature before commencing any maintenance works.
Isolate the IntaKlean by closing the two ball valves and opening the air vent.
Carefully unscrew the cover.
Water will gradually begin to flow from the cover as it is unscrewed further.
Ensure that this water is collected in a suitably sized container and that the surrounding
area is protected to prevent water damage.
Once the flow of water has stopped, the collection vessel is empty.
Completely remove the cover and carefully withdraw the magnet and plastic sheath.
Remove the metal filter screen.
Remove the white plastic sheath from the magnet over a sink or container.
Clean the sheath with clean water and rinse the cap thoroughly under the tap.
Rinse the metal filter screen in clean water and check for signs of damage; replace if
damaged.

Check the ‘O’ ring seal for signs of damage, replace if damaged.
Re-assemble in the reverse order, check joints for signs of leakage before
recommissioning following the procedure in the COMMI IONING section.

ADDING WATER TREATMENT
To add water treatment chemicals via the IntaKlean, first ensure the system is
appropriately isolated then close the upper ball valve leaving the lower valve open.
Drain a suitable volume of water from a drain point at the lowest part of the central
heating system. Ensure a sufficient amount of water is drained to allow space for the
volume of chemicals required.
The IntaKlean has a large 500ml dosing capacity, which in most cases, should prove
sufficient.
When the IntaKlean is empty, using an appropriate tool, remove the air vent from the
top of the collection vessel.
Insert a funnel into the open aperture and dose the system accordingly.
Re-commission the system as per the previous instructions in the COMMI IONING
section.
