5 Filter element (for DN
Application
This filter is intended for the filtration of drinking
and service water. It protects the water pipes and
the connected water system parts from malfunc-
tions and corrosion damage due to impurities such
as rust particles, chippings, sand, hemp, etc.
The filter can also be used for the filtration of proc-
ess water and cooling water for continuous cool-
ing systems, but not in applications with chemi-
cally treated circulating water.
In applications with water containing coarse impu-
rities, a coarse dirt separator must be used.
The filter is not suitable for oils, greases, solvents,
soaps and other lubricating media nor for the sepa-
ration of water-soluble substances.
Attention: In accordance with AVB Wasser V, §
12.2, the installation of the equipment may only
be carried out by the public water supply com-
pany or by an installation company listed in
the installer directory of a water supply com-
pany.
Function
The untreated water flows through the untreated
water inlet into the filter and from there from the
inside to the outside through the filter element into
the clean water outlet. Any impurities >90 µm are
trapped on the inside of the filter cloth and clean
water is fed into the piping system.

Installation conditions

Observe the local installation regulations, general
guidelines and the technical specifications.
Install the filter according to its nominal width in
cold water pipes of the same dimensions and be-
fore the equipment to be protected. Always pro-
vide stop valves.
Install the filter in a horizontal position in the water
pipe (observe flow direction arrows). A vertical in-
stallation does not affect the function.
Attention: The installation site must be protected
against frost and must ensure the protection of the
filter against e.g. solvent vapours, fuel oil, lees,
chemicals of any kind, UV radiation and heat
sources above 40° C.
The plastic parts must be replaced even if there is
no visible damage after severe concussions and
shocks, e.g. due to the use of unsuitable tools or if
dropped on stone floors etc. (danger of bursting).
Attention: keep the plastic parts free from oil and
grease. Avoid extreme pressure impact (e.g. lock-
ing impact from solenoid valve behind the filter).
Installation
See installation drawing on the left.
Install the filter and the stop valve in flow direction
in the water pipe (see flow direction arrows on top
section).
