3. Applications
The CLARIS filter systems are typically used to feed the following appliances:
• Coffee and espresso machines
• Drinks vending machines
• Combi Steamers and Self-Cooking Systems
• Steam Cookers and Ovens
The systems can be operated horizontally or vertically, depending on the space available.
4. Function
The CLARIS filter systems use ion-selective filter medium to reduce the carbonate hardness of potable water.
The DuoBlend®bypass valve in the filter head can be used to precisely adjust the carbonate hardness of the filtered
water and to adapt it to the application.
The filter material also reduces heavy metal ions like lead, copper and cadmium.
The integrated active carbon block reduces undesirable cloudiness, organic impurities, odour and taste and chlorine
residue from the filtrate and bypass water.

5. Installation and Bypass level adjustment
5.1 Safety-related installation instructions
• Water pressure at the filter system inlet must not exceed 8 bar (116 psi). A pressure reducer must be installed on
the water supply side of the filter system if the inlet pressure exceeds 8 bar (116 psi).
• A shut-off valve must be installed upstream of the filter system.
• If a water softener is installed upstream, use filter only for tapwater > 6° dH / 10,7° FH / 107 PPM total hardness.
• No copper pipes, galvanised or nickel-coated pipes or intermediate parts may be installed between the filter
system and the point of dispense.
• All components must be installed according to country-specific guidelines. Check for compliance with state
and local laws and regulations.
• DIN 1988 should be noted for installing and operating the system.
• We recommend only using genuine accessory hoses for the CLARIS system because these have a longer thread.
• If the cartridge is removed from the filter head without being replaced by a new one, the water supply to the
filter head must be shut off.
• Do not connect any devices to the flush valve and/or flush hose.
5.2 Initial installation
At first identify a suitable place to install the filter system. Note the information provided in chapter 2.
Before you start installing the system, shut off the water supply and disconnect the equipment from the power supply.
Before installation check the filter system and the accessories for any damage – particular attention must be paid
when inspecting the o-rings and gaskets.
After storage below 0° C (32 °F) the filter cartridge must be stored at the ambient temperature of the installation
location for at least 24 hours.
NOTE: The hoses for the supply and discharge line are not supplied as standard but can be ordered as accessories.
Atest kit for determining the water hardness is also available as an accessory. You will find more details in section 9.
5.2.1 Installation of filter head / Mounting bracket / Filter cartridge
The system can be operated either freestanding or wall mounted in a vertical or horizontal position.
1) If mounting vertically to a wall, securely connect the mounting bracket to the wall using suitable Ø 5mm screws
(#10-12 x ¾” tap screws) (Not included).
2) Install the hoses for the water inlet and outlet to the filter head and respect the following:
• Note the direction of flow – indicated by arrows on the filter head!
• Max. Torque 10 Nm (88 lbf in) on 3/8” threaded connections when using genuine CLARIS accessory hoses.
• Filter heads with threaded connections must only use connecting hoses with flat gaskets. Don’t use hoses or
adapter with conical screw connections, they damage the connectors on the filter head and invalidate any
warranty claims.
• Only use adaptor nipples of a matching connection type and length to the head connectors, adaptor nipples
must not contact and rest axially on the head. Adaptors of improper design can damage the connections of the
filter head and invalidate any warranty claims.
• Open the flush/pressure release valve (see page 3, A 4) and direct the flush hose into a suitable container
(e.g. bucket) or to the drain.
• Turn on the water supply.
3) Insert the filter cartridge into the filter head and turn it clockwise until the end position is reached. This vents the
system and flushes the filter cartridge (filter size S/M > 5 l / 1.5 US gal; filter size L/XL > 10 l / 3.0 US gal). You
can check the correct end position using the matching marks on the mounting bracket and filter cartridge
(see page 3, position 8).
4) Close the flush/pressure release valve (see page 3, A 3) - the system is now ready for use.
5) After installing the system and inserting the filter cartridge, check all components for leaks, water must not escape
from any point.
5.2.2 Replacing a filter cartridge
1) Slowly unscrew the used cartridge by turning counter-clockwise. This will unlock it from the filter head and
enable it to be removed. During this process, incoming tapwater supply and outgoing filtered water valves in the
filter head shut-off automaticaly.
The system will expand and a small amount of expansion water may escape from the flush hose due to peaks
in pressure.
Please keep this in mind and place a suitable container underneath the flush hose.
2) Open the flush/pressure release valve (see page 3, A 4) and lead the rinsing hose into a suitable
container (e.g. bucket) or to the drain.
3) Remove the new filter cartridge from its packaging and check for any damage.
4) Insert the filter cartridge into the filter head and turn the cartridge clockwise until its end position is reached
(see page 3, position 8). The flow in the filter head is reopened and the system vented and flushed via the
flush/pressure release valve (cartridge size S/M > 5 l / 1.5 US gal; cartridge size L/XL > 10 l / 3.0 US gal).
5) Close the flush/pressure release valve (see page 3, A 3) - the system is now ready for use.
6) After replacing the filter cartridge, check all components for seal integrity, water must not escape from any point.

NOTE: The flush water will be milky or cloudy at first. This is due to the dispersing air and will clear up
quickly. Now check that the cartridge position is correct by ensuring the marks on the wall mounting bracket and filter
cartridge are aligned (see page 3, position 8). When inserting the cartridge, check the position of the cartridge label.
This should face forwards once in the end position so that all of the necessary information is visible.
5.2.3 Determining the carbonate hardness
Use the corresponding test kit to determine the carbonate hardness in the water supply. A test kit for determining
water hardness is available as an accessory.
In order to compensate for fluctuations in the quality of feed water and measuring errors of the test kit we
recommend to add 2° KH / 2° Clarke / 30 PPM / 3° FH to the value determined.
Use this value to determine the recommended bypass level setting according to chapter 5.2.4 and for the
determination of the filter capacity according to chapter 5.2.5.
5.2.4 Bypass level adjustment
NOTE: Adjust the bypass level only with the cartridge assembled to the head.
To adjust the bypass level for your application, lift up the bypass adjustment cap (see page 3, position 4) and set
the bypass level specified in the table in chapter 10. Then push down the bypass adjustment cap back onto the filter
head to lock the cap in position.
5.2.5 Determining the filter capacity
Based on the carbonate hardness level of the water supply and your application, use the tables in chapter 10 to
identify the recommended bypass setting and the resultant filter cartridge capacity.
Please mark the installation and replacement dates in the corresponding boxes on the cartridge label.
6. Settings / Capacities
The unique DuoBlend®bypass valve technology enables precise adjustment of carbonate hardness in the filtered
water. It is possible to adjust the bypass level to best suit the appliance type, i.e. hot drinks with steam (COFFEE-
ESPRESSO), without steam (VENDING), as well as for Combi Steamers, Self - Cooking Systems, Steam Cookers
and Ovens whether using direct injection or boiler systems, in order to maximise cartridge capacity taking into
consideration local water quality.
7. Service / Maintenance
Reliable system function can only be achieved if the filter cartridge is replaced on a regular basis.
The replacement cycle depends on the carbonate hardness of the water supply, the application and the
bypass level.
We would recommend replacing the filter cartridge after 6 months and no later than 12 months depending on usage.
The operator undertakes to check the system for leaks every day.
When the filter cartridge is replaced, all parts must be checked for impurities and damage. Damaged parts must be
replaced and impurities remedied.
