ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION MANUAL

B1 BRAVOFIL INSTALLATION

B1.1 Before the installation
Warning! Before the installation of BravoFIL please verify that the water supplied fulfils the requirements
of European drinking water directives 98/83/CE. Check for the compliance of the hydraulic distribution
system and the installation of the filter to local regulations. The manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for damage to
persons or things caused by improper installation of the filter and/or the installation of the filter in a waterworks not
compliant with local regulations.
BravoFIL is not equipped, by standard, with any flooding-control system or other devices able to detect, control or
alarm in case of runaway water losses. In case, consider, apart, an adequate anti flooding device.
Do not install BravoFIL downstream of boilers or in devices involving the transit, inside the filter, of water at higher
than 40°C temperature. Install BravoFIL upstream of devices to protect. BravoFIL cannot be used to treat closed loop
water (ex. heating systems water) or any other applications not cited in this manual.
B1.2 Requirements for the place of installation
BravoFIL must be installed indoor, in an hygienically suitable place, dry and clean, protected from frost, exposure to
sunlight, moisture, atmospheric agent (rain, snow and hail). Do not install BravoFIL in wells, near drains, or in
smelly places. Do not install where any kind of chemical vapours or gas and fumes may be present. Avoid installation
in tight spaces which cannot allow easy ordinary and extraordinary maintenance. In succession the limit values of the
allowed environmental parameters for the BravoFIL installation:
Ambient temperature (min./max.), °C:
B1.3 Laws, Regulations and Standards
The installation of BravoFIL must be performed in compliance with local laws, regulations and standards.
B1.4 Instruction for installation
The installation must be performed in accordance with best practice, in line with all the current legislation and the
rating data.
Before installing the filter make sure that the plant fits with the laws or regulations or local recommendations
produced by the office in charge. Before installing the filter, clean pipes and appliances installed upstream of the filter
in order to eliminate foreign bodies which can cause the malfunction of the filter itself. If the level of cleanliness in the
plant is not adequate you should sanitize the plant and the possible storage tanks before the installation of BravoFIL.
The filter should not be installed between the boiler and safety devices.
The hydraulic distribution system implemented to install devices connected to the water distribution system must be
provided with a system able to ensure the non return of the treated water in the distribution system, and with a
manual or automatic by-pass valve system in order to allow the withdrawal of non treated water interrupting the flow
of treated water.
Warning! Avoid solvents, oils, acidic or caustic substances and detergents to come in contact with the
external plastic and brass part of the device. In case of very strong impact during the transport or the
assembly do not install the device and replace it even in case of non evident damages to the plastic parts. Limit the
presence of waterhammer.
B1.5 Hydraulic checks after installation
After opening the water upstream of the equipment check for leaks;
1) Verify that the equipment is correctly positioned in order to ease ordinary maintenance.
2) Check for the presence of a by-pass circuit allowing to exclude the filter from serving and check for the
presence of sampling faucets installed upstream and downstream the filter.
3) Check for the compliances of the installation with all local rules or recommendations issued by the
competent local area offices.
