FGD Series/Specific Product Precautions
Be sure to read this before handling.
These safety instructions are intended to prevent hazardous situations and/or equipment damage. Make sure to follow every
instruction since they are for safety.
■Handling
The product specified here may become unsafe if handled incorrectly.
The assembly, operation and maintenance of machines or equipment including our products must be performed
by an operator who is appropriately trained and experienced.
Warning
■Do not operate the product outside of the specifications.
- Operating pressure: If pressure outside of the specified range due to such things as water hammer or surge
pressure is possible, install an accumulator. When the product is used for gas, the maximum
operating pressure shall be 0.5Mpa.
- Operating temperature: Even if the specified temperature range is satisfied, the product cannot be used if the
temperature is over the boiling point of the operating fluid.
- Fluid: Do not use fluid which is harmful to the human body.
- Do not use any fluid which will cause the seal or element to swell or deteriorate.
- Operating environment: Note that the valve is not for outdoor use. - Do not use the product where it can be
exposed to vibration or impact.
- Do not use in environments where there is a danger of corrosion.
■Do not use the product with flammable or highly permeable fluids.
- Usage may cause a fire, explosion or leakage.
■Do not disassemble with pressure applied.
- Never loosen the connecting part (bolt) while pressure is being applied to the product.
Make sure that the gauge pressure in the line is zero before loosening the bolts. Otherwise it may cause an
injury.
■Do not modify the product.
- Broken parts may cause an injury or failure.

6/13
FGX-OM-L005-C
Caution
■Do not touch the filter or piping when hot fluid is used.
- Using this product at high temperatures (40 to 80 oC) may cause burns.
- Do not touch the surface until it is cooled down to less than 40oC.
■Connect IN and OUT correctly. (Make sure that reverse flow will not be generated)
- Make sure that back flow will not be generated. The element might break due to exposure to back
flow.
■Perform regular leakage inspections and release trapped air when supplying pressure after the
maintenance.
- Stop operation if there are abnormalities such as leakage.
Do not restart operation until the corrective action (replacement with a new gasket, retightening of the
fitting etc.) is taken.
- Release the air.
■Determine the replacement period of the element by referring to the differential pressure.
- Replace the element when the differential pressure reaches 0.1MPa. If the element is not replaced,
the element can be damaged.
■Wear personal protective equipment when replacing the element.
- When replacing, make sure to wear protective gloves, protective glasses, etc. Fluid and captured
foreign matter may cause injury.
■Make sure that load such as vibration or weight is not applied to the filter piping.
- Fix the IN/OUT piping to the base using U bolts, or fix to the panel using a bracket.
Otherwise, the filter may be damaged.
■For fluid with high viscosity at low temperature, do not start operation until it is warmed to the
appropriate temperature.
- During cold period such as winter time, operating fluid viscosity may become high depending on the
fluid properties, generating a large differential pressure, damaging the element.
In this case, warm up the fluid until it reaches the customer's operating temperature before starting the
operation.

FGX-OM-L005-C
5. Installation and Piping
[1] Installation
1) When installing, allow sufficient space for maintenance.
Reserve a space of 50mm or more beneath the reservoir.
2) Start with a flow with an initial differential pressure across the element of 0.02MPa or less.
If operation starts with differential pressure exceeding 0.02MPa, the element replacement will be shortened significantly.
3) This filter generates particles at first. Before initial operation, flush the piping enough to remove the particles completely.
[2] Piping
1) Check each port size for selecting valves and fittings suitable for operating conditions.
Please check Safety Instruction before use.
2) For filter piping, apply a spanner to the filter cover so that force is not applied to the filter case. (It can cause leakage)
6. Maintenance
Replace the element when the differential pressure across it reaches 0.1MPa due to clogging.
Replacement of element should be performed according to the procedure below.
[1] Pull out the element. (See Fig. 1)
1) Stop operation.
2) Check following before maintenance.
Confirm that the pressure of the system in which the filter is installed is zero,
When using the product at a high temperature, be sure to check that the surface temperature of the filter container
is not more than 40
o
C before starting operation in order to prevent burns.
3)After closing the piping valve on the IN side of the filter, close the piping valve on the OUT side of the filter.
4) Discharge the residual fluid inside from the drain port.
5) Loosen the nut and remove the element.
6) Move the case downward to remove it.
7) Remove the element.
∗When two elements (250 mm) are used, be careful not to lose the joint which seals the elements. It will be reused
later.
8) Clean the inside of the case, gasket, seals and plug with clean fluid or solutions.
[2] Mounting of element (See Fig. 1)
1) Assemble in the reverse order of section 6 Maintenance [1].
2) Replace any deteriorated or swollen gasket or seals with new ones.
3) Put the tension bolt through the hole of the element, and then insert the element into the case.
[When two elements (250mm) are used.]
* When inserting the element, do not drop the element until the lower end reaches the element guide.
* Insert the joint between the elements.
4) Align the tension bolt with the center hole of the cover, and insert the case, in which the element has been inserted, into the
cover.

12/13
FGX-OM-L005-C
5) Push the case from the bottom and tighten the nut from the top of the cover with tightening torque below. (Control the
torque to avoid leakage)
∗Tightening torque control value: FGDT/F 25N・m, FGDC/E 15N・m
[3] Restart the operation
1) After the replacement of the element, check the parts are assembled correctly before restarting operation. In case of fluid
leakage, stop the operation immediately. Check the sealing condition and take corrective actions.
2) When supplying pressure by starting the pump, open the relief port (hexagon bolt) to discharge air. After the air is released,
close the air exhaust port (hexagon bolt) and start operation.
7. Maintenance parts
[1] Replacement Element
To order a replacement element, check the product number printed on the product label of the filter and refer to the catalog,
specifying the necessary quantity.
[2] Consumables
For other consumables such as gasket or seals, see Table 1 and order specifying the quantity.
