Filter element servicing
During servicing, the external surfaces of the filter assembly must
be cleaned to remove any dust deposits including the threads of the
tube and cover.
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 item numbers for
applicable replacement element series. Remove and replace element
as follows:
7.1
Turn off and depressurize the system. Open vent plug (9) at
top of filter on the cover assembly (4) one and one-half turns.
WARNING:
FAILURE TO DEPRESSURISE THE FILTER
BEFORE SERVICING ELEMENT COULD RESULT
IN EXPLOSIVE LOSS OF FLUID, DAMAGE TO
EQUIPMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
7.2
Open one or both drain plugs (10) on bottom of filter head and
drain housing. Reinstall and tighten drain plug(s).
7.3
A tool (socket or box wrench not a pipe wrench) should
be used to remove the cover assembly by turning counter
clockwise.
Note: The UR610/690 series assembly is equipped with an
extraction mechanism within the cover assembly. Turn the cover
counterclockwise until cover threads disengage then lift the
cover to pull the element free from its cage. Cover can now be
removed, making the element accessible.
7.4
Remove filter element (7) and carefully inspect the surface
for visible contamination. Normally no dirt should show, but
visible dirt or particles can be an early warning of system
component breakdown and can indicate potential failure.
Discard both the filter element and its O-ring (5a). The filter
element is NOT CLEANABLE. Any attempt to clean the filter
element can cause degradation of the filter medium and allow
contaminated fluid to pass through the filter element.
WARNING:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN OR RE-USE THE
ELEMENT.
ONLY USE GENUINE PALL REPLACEMENT FILTER
ELEMENTS. USE OF SUBSTITUTE ELEMENTS MAY
INVALIDATE PRODUCT WARRANTY.
7.5
Inspect filter cover assembly (4) including threads for possible
damage or malfunction. Replace any damaged parts. Remove
any accumulated dirt. DO NOT run the system without a filter
element installed. Check that the O-ring on the cover (5b)
assembly is not damaged. Use replacement filter element
part number called for on assembly nameplate.

WARNING:
FAILURE TO REPLACE DAMAGED PARTS IN FILTER
CAN CAUSE COMPONENTS IN THE SYSTEM TO FAIL
OR DEGRADE IN THEIR PERFORMANCE.
7.6
Lubricate the element O-rings with clean system fluid and
install element into the cover assembly then install into its
cage (shell) assembly (3). Reset the visual indicator, if fitted,
before refitting cover. Lightly lubricate cover O-ring with clean
system fluid, apply anti sieze (Loctite #39901 or equal) to tube
threads to prevent galling and refit cover assembly onto the
tube. HAND TIGHTEN cover until cover assembly and tube
are bottomed together. O-ring sealing is not improved by over
tightening. USE A TOOL (SOCKET OR BOX WRENCH NOT
A PIPE WRENCH) TO TIGHTEN COVER USING THE HEX TO
PROPER TORQUE OF 50-60 LBFT (68-81 Nm).
7.7
Open vent plug (9) on housing and pressurize system.
This allows clean pressurized fluid to fill the housing and
bleed off air.
7.8
Close vent plug on appearance of clear fluid. Check for leaks.
7.9
After element change ENSURE DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE
DEVICE IS RESET. Brass visual and electrical and stainless
steel electrical switches reset automatically. When system
reaches normal operating temperature, check that the
electrical switch and/or visual warning button/flag has not
actuated. If visual indicator actuates due to a cold start
condition, reset again as per section 6
