These instructions cover the installation, operation and maintenance. Please read the enclosed
instructions before commencing the installation of this product, please note;

Maximum working temperature: 90˚C
Inlet connections: 28mm
Location
The IntaKlean HP magnetic heat pump filter, featuring our innovative direct multi-layered non
ferrous filter, is suitable for all central heating systems and can be fitted anywhere, in any
orientation on the central heating circuit.
For maximum system protection however, we recommend that you fit the IntaKlean HP on the flow
to the boiler or heat pump, in order to protect it from impurities in the system, especially during
pre-commissioning.
It is important that the flow through the IntaKlean HP is in the same direction as that indicated by
the arrow on the body.
The IntaKlean HP must be installed with the main cartridge chamber facing downward as shown.
The IntaKlean HP can be installed in vertical, horizontal or inclined pipework.
Ensure that the system is 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 HP magnetic system filter, great care should be taken to place the filter
so that you may still access the removable magnetic probe, screw cap, air bleed and drain plug.
Doing this will aid the servicing of the filter and any chemical dosing in the future.

Installation
Ø28mm = 225
Having removed the prescribed section of pipework (as above), make sure that the open ends
of both pieces of pipework are free of debris and ready to receive the nut and olive. Fit both
isolation valves but do not tighten fully.

Installation Continued
Slip the connector block between the isolation valves, taking particular care to ensure that the
directional arrow on the connector block is pointing in the direction of the flow of water. Failure to
do so will result in reduced flow and inhibited filter performance.
Hand tighten the isolation valves to the connector block making sure that the rubber washers
provided have been situated between the two. When you are happy that the connector block and
isolation valves are facing an appropriate direction for the installation, fully tighten all four nuts to
create a watertight seal.

Installation Continued
Present the filter to the connector block ensuring the air bleed is at the top and the drain plug is at
the bottom.
Ensure that the sealing ‘O’ ring is used and fitted correctly.
Gently push the filter into the connector block and when you are satisfied with the position of the
filter, hand tighten the filter pot connecting nut. If further tightening is required, gentle pressure can
be applied with a suitably sized set of pump pliers.
WARNING - EXCESSIVE TIGHTENING OF THE CONNECTOR BLOCK/FILTER POT
CONNECTING NUT MAY IRREPARABLY DAMAGE THE FILTER.
Should you need to adjust the angle of the filter in relation to the pipework, simply slacken the
connecting nut and rotate as required ensuring to re-tighten before commissioning the filter.
Your installation is now complete.

Commissioning
The commissioning procedure should be carried out as follows;
1 Open the lower isolation valve to the air bleed – leave the upper most isolation valve closed.
The air bleed should be closed initially during commissioning.
2 Making sure that all open ends of the system are closed, begin to refill the system.
3 Bleed radiators and other equipment as required.
4 Return to the IntaKlean HP filter and open the air bleed until water flows from it.
5 Open the top isolation valve and allow the remaining system volume to fill.
6 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 HP. We recommend that you check the air bleed
again to ensure that all air has been purged from the system.
Cleaning and Servicing
We recommend that the IntaKlean HP is serviced once every twelve months or in line with the
servicing schedule of the boiler, heat pump or according to water conditions.
Prior to cleaning the IntaKlean HP, ensure that the working environment is safe.
Inta recommend that the boiler or heat pump is turned off before commencing any maintenance
works. Caution should also be taken regarding the temperature of the contents of the filter.
Firstly, turn the isolation valves to the closed position. Then, open the air bleed to relieve any
system pressure.
1 Isolate IntaKlean HP from the system by shutting both the isolating ball valves.
2 Unscrew the magnet from the filter screw cap, leaving the screw cap in situ.
3 Place a suitable container underneath the filter and remove the drain plug from the base of
the filter using an Allen key or adjustable spanner.
4 Allow the filter contents to drain into the container and replace the drain plug.
5 Screw the magnet back into the filter screw cap and unscrew the complete filter cap assembly
from the filter body. If you are unable to open the filter cap by hand a suitably sized spanner
can be placed onto the moulded haxagon nut in the centre of the filter cap to provide
leverage.
6 Remove the multi-layered non-ferrous mesh filter from the filter body.
7 Remove any residual debris from both the non-ferrous filter and screw cap using a soft cloth
or disposable paper towel and rinse in clean water.
8 Re-assemble the filter and re-commission as detailed in the COMMISSIONING section of
these instructions. Ensure that the SERVICE SCHEDULE is completed each time the filter is
serviced.

Chemical Dosing
To dose the system using the IntaKlean HP follow the procedure below;
1 Ensure the working environment is safe and the boiler is turned off at the switch.
2 Isolate IntaKlean HP from the system by shutting both the isolating ball valves.
3 Place a suitable container underneath the filter and remove the drain plug from the base of
the filter using an Allen key or adjustable spanner.
4 Allow the filter contents to drain into the container and replace the drain plug.
5 Remove the screw cap from the filter body and add any dosing chemicals as required.
6 The filter pot has a fluid volume of 500 ml.
7 Replace the filter screw cap and open the isolation valves to introduce the dosing chemicals
into the circulating system fluid.
8 Re-commission the system as per the previous instructions in the COMMISSIONING section.
9 Complete the SERVICE SCHEDULE at the back of this instruction booklet.
