The filter housing, and any optional equipment, are packed
individually for assembly by the customer. Unpack carefully
and ensure optional items are not mislaid in packaging to be
discarded.
3 General sources of information
3.1 For dimensions, operating parameters,
assembly/element part number, ordering information,
notes, performance data and specifications refer to
datasheet IMUR209EN.
3.2 This equipment has been assessed in accordance with
the guidelines laid down in the European Pressure
Directive 97/23/EC and has been classified within sound
engineering practice S.E.P. We hereby declare the
equipment meets the requirements of article 3, section
3, thus meeting the directive requirements. Under the
provisions of this directive the filter assembly is suitable
for use with group 2 fluids only.
3.3 Where under reasonably foreseeable conditions,
including external fires, the allowable limits could be
exceeded, suitable protective devices must be installed
by the customer within the connecting fluid system.
4 Installation of housing
4.1 The filter can be installed in any attitude, but for ease of
servicing, it is recommended that it be installed vertically
with the filter bowl pointing downwards.
4.2 The minimum clearance required for element removal
is 69 mm (2.7") for all lengths.
4.3 The UR209 series housing is supplied without a filter
element. For element installation and servicing
procedures, refer to Section 7.
NOTE: The UR209 head is supplied with one machined
differential pressure warning port fitted with a plastic shipping
plug. If a differential pressure warning device is to be fitted,
the plastic shipping plug should be removed and replaced by
a visual or electrical warning device, torque tightened to
14 Nm (10 ft/lb).
4.4 Mount the filter assembly in position using four 3/8-16
('A' and 'B' ports) or M10 x 1.5 ('C' ports) bolts in
the holes on the head mounting pads. Torque bolts to
12-26 Nm (9-19 ft/lb).
4.5 Use a check valve downstream of the filter if there is a
possibility of reverse flow.
4.6 Install the filter housing using additional piping/valving
to allow complete filter assembly bypass if filter
maintenance is required without system shutdown.
This series is not available in a duplex or service
bypass configuration.
NOTE: Piping supports should be provided as close as is
practicable to the port connections in order to minimize
external loads. This filter assembly must not be electronically
isolated from the users earthing system. This filter assembly
must be earthed by connecting the users earthing system to
one of the inlet/outlet connections.
4.7 Connect lines or hoses to housing inlet and outlet ports.
NOTE: Painting of the filter housing is optional. The coating on
the filter housing is a suitable painting base. Cover the
differential pressure warning device and nameplate if painting
of the housing takes place.
CAUTION:
Maximum surge flow should not exceed 1.3 times
normal flow.
WARNING:
USE FITTINGS OR ADAPTORS COMPATIBLE WITH
PORTS SUPPLIED AS SHOWN BY PART NUMBER ON
NAMEPLATE AND NOTED IN DATA SHEETS: USE OF
INCORRECT FITTINGS OR ADAPTORS CAN CAUSE
FILTER HOUSING OR MANIFOLD FAILURE
RESULTING IN LOSS OF PRESSURE AND POSSIBLE
SYSTEM FAILURE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
CAUTION:
Reverse flow through filter element will cause damage.

CAUTION:
Do not operate the filter unless the warning device port
is sealed.

4.8 Jog system and fill filter. Pressurize system fully and
check for leaks; if leaks occur refer to Section 5.
5 Routine maintenance
5.1 Pall filters do not normally require special attention
except for periodic monitoring of the differential pressure
warning device. Schedule replacement of filter element
every six months or sooner, and have ample supply of
spare elements available.
5.2 If external leakage is noted, replace O-ring at leak. If
leakage persists, check sealing surfaces for scratches or
cracks; replace any defective parts.
5.3 Differential pressure devices actuate when the element
needs changing or because of high fluid viscosity in
'cold start' conditions. If 'cold start' conditions exist, see
Section 6.2 and 6.3.
5.4 A dirty system can quickly plug a new filter element,
especially with Pall high efficiency filter media. It may
require one or two initial element changes to stabilize
element life. If element life is short or differential
pressure is excessive, filter may be undersized; refer to
the sizing and selection section of the product literature
or contact your local Pall representative.
5.5 Make sure element change labels are clean and
undamaged. Replace illegible labels with the appropriate
new labels.
6 Differential Pressure Devices
Reference should be made to product literature for dimensions,
operating parameters, part numbering, ordering information
and specifications.
6.1 Differential pressure devices actuate when the element
needs changing or because of high fluid viscosity in
'cold start' conditions.
6.2 If the differential pressure switch actuates during cold
start, continue operating until the signal goes out as
system warms to normal operating temperature. This
feature can be used as 'warm up' indication in operating
procedures. If the warning signal remains or appears
when system is warm, replace the filter element.
6.3 Use of both positive indication and negative indication is
recommended to effectively monitor filter element life.
NOTE: These electrical and visual Differential pressure
devices (respectively, F5 and FD series) are very specific
to the UR209 series.
Electrical connections and ratings for F5 code electrical
pressure switch options:
28 VDC = 3A (inductive),
5A (resistive)
Amperage: 200mA maximum
Circuit:
SPST Normally open circuit
Ground through filter assembly
to chassis
CAUTION:
Failure to bleed the filter housing adequately will
increase the dissolved air content of the system fluid
which will shorten fluid life and may cause other
problems in the system.

7 Filter element servicing
During servicing, the external surfaces of the filter assembly
must be cleaned to remove any dust deposits.
Servicing must be conducted using suitable tools that do not
present a hazard.
Servicing must not be carried out when a potentially explosive
atmosphere is present.
Refer to Service Parts List (Section 10) for item numbers for
applicable replacement element series. Remove and replace
element as follows:
7.1 Turn off and depressurize the system.
7.2 Unscrew and remove filter bowl (2) from head assembly
(1), anti-clockwise when viewed from below. It maybe
necessary to use a 1" socket wrench on the hexagon to
loosen the bowl initially.
7.3 Drain fluid from the bowl into a suitable waste container.
7.4 Element replacement (UE209 Series): Remove filter
element (5) by turning clockwise (when viewed from
below) and gently pulling the element from the filter
head (1). Carefully inspect the interior surface
(flow through the element is in-to-out) for visible
contamination. Normally no dirt should show, but visible
dirt or particles can be an early warning of system
component failure. Discard both the filter element and
its O-ring. The filter element is NOT CLEANABLE.
Any attempt to clean the filter element can cause
degradation of the filter medium and allow contaminated
fluid to pass through the filter element.
7.5 DO NOT run the system without a filter element
installed. Check that the O-ring (3) between the head (1)
and bowl (2) is not damaged. Use the replacement filter
as indicated by the part number on the element endcap.
7.6 Lubricate element O-ring with clean system fluid.
Reinstall element in the filter head (1) by engaging
element and turning anti-clockwise until the element
tabs lock into the filter head. Lightly lubricate head-to
bowl O-ring with clean system fluid and reassemble the
until thread bottoms. Hand tighten only. O-ring sealing is
not improved by over tightening
7.7 Bleed the system and check for leaks as per
section 4.8.
7.8 After element change, ENSURE VISUAL INDICATOR IS
RESET BY PUSHING IN THE RED BUTTON. Electrical
differential pressure devices will reset automatically.
When system reaches normal operating temperature,
check that the switch has not actuated and/or the visual
warning button has remained depressed. If visual
indicator rises due to a cold start condition, reset again
as per section 6.
8 Fluid sampling
Optimum sampling to verify fluid condition can be achieved by
the use of sampling adaptors installed on the hydraulic system
itself. For more information consult Pall or your local Pall
distributor. Pall offers a fluid contamination analysis service -
consult the Pall sales office.
