Inlet Filter (if installed)
Check after first 8 hours of operation. Clean or replace inlet filter element every 1000 to 3000 hours
depending on application or if excessive pressure drop is noticed. In some applications it may be necessary
to clean inlet filter more often. Clean filters by gently knocking off into a dust bin. Brush filter free of debris
and clean with a ShopVac. DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR TO CLEAN ANY FILTERS!
CAUTION: Be careful not to allow accumulated foreign material to fall in the pump suction
opening when removing the filter cartridge. Horizontal filter installation is recommended to
prevent this. Filters must be disposed of properly as they might contain toxic substances
carried over from the process.
