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.
CAUTION:
Filter elements should be replaced upon indication or
at specified intervals, six months maximum. Failure to
change the element will cause the filter to go on bypass.
Refer to Service Parts List (Section 10) for part numbers for applicable
replacement element series. Remove and replace element as follows:
7.1 Open vent plug one and one half turns on off-line side. Open
commuter valve to ensure off-line side is full of oil. When bubble
free fluid isues from port, torque tighten plug to 12 LBft (16 Nm).
Lift latching pin and shift change over valve handle (9) 180° to bring
off-line housing on-line. Engage latching pin to prevent accidental
handle movement. Close the commuter valve.
NOTE: Change-over valve handle indicates the filter housing on stream.
7.2 The off-line housing, now isolated from the system by the
change-over valve, is depressurised by slowly venting through the
vent plug (7). Open drain plug (7b) and drain fluid into a suitable
container. Discard fluid in accordance with local Health and Safety
regulations. Close drain plug (7b) and torque tighten to 12 ft/lb
or 16 Nm.
NOTE: During element replacement some small internal leakage may be noted
from the on-line filter housing.
7.3 Unscrew and remove cover (3) from tube (2) counter-clockwise
when viewed from above. It way be necessaryto use a 1" socket
wrench on the hexagon on the cover (3) to loosen the cover initially.
WARNING:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN OR RE-USE THE ELEMENT.
Remove filter element (8), if already fitted, and 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 can cause
degredation of the filter medium and allow contaminated fluid to
pass through the filter element
7.4 DO NOT run the system without a filter element installed. Check
that the O-ring (4) between the cover (3) and tube (2) is not
damaged. Use the replacement filter as indicated by the part
number on the element endcap.
WARNING:
FAILURE TO REPLACE DAMAGED PARTS IN THE FILTER
ASSEMBLY CAN CAUSE COMPONENTS IN THE
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM TO FAIL OR DEGRADE IN THEIR
PERFORMANCE.
Lubricate element O-ring with clean system fluid. Reinstall
element in the shell assembly. Lightly lubricate cover-to-head
(as applicable) O-ring with clean system fluid and reassemble the
housing until thread bottoms. Torque tighten to
10-14 LBft (13-19 Nm).
7.5 O-ring sealing is not improved by over tightening.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE PIPE WRENCH, HAMMER OR ANY
SIMILAR TOOL TO TIGHTEN COVER.

7.6 Open housing vent plug (7) on off-line side. Open commuter valve
to ensure off-line side is full of oil. When bubble free fluid isues
from port, torque tighten plug to 12 LBft (16 Nm). Close the
commuter valve. Filter housing with new element is now ready for
on-line service when required.
7.7 After element change ENSURE VISUAL DIFFERENTIAL
PRESSURE WARNING DEVICE IS RESET BY PUSHING IN THE
BUTTON; electrical devices are reset automatically. When system
reaches normal operating temperature, check that electrical
switch has not actuated and/or that visual warning button remains
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 in place of or in combination with the
differential pressure device. This provides up and downstream 1/4-inch
BSP parallel thread ports to be used for sampling. For more information
consult Pall or your local Pall distributor. Pall offers a fluid contamination
analysis service - consult the Pall sales office.
