For easy service and replacement of the filter cartidge after installation a minimum clearance/
2
distance of 65 mm (2.56 inches) is required at the bottom of the cartridge.
5.3 Bypass setting on the filter head
The bypass setting on the filter head does not have a function for this filter cartridge.
The filter cartridge does not have a bypass. All of the incoming water flows through the
cartridge.
The filter head should be sealed with the included warranty label. Note month and year on the
4
label.
NOTE!
f BWT recommends to choose the size of the filter cartridge with its capacity to be due for
replacement in 6 month intervals.
5.4 Fitting the filter head
I
CAUTION!
f The filter head is never to be left under mains water pressure without a mounted filter
cartridge.
f The tightening torque of the fittings (inlet/outlet) must not exceed 15 Nm!
NOTE!
f The integrated Aquastop in the filter head prevents a water flow without mounted filter
cartridge.
Insert the filter head into the filter bracket, observe the correct direction of flow.
5
Mount hoses (observe the bending radii!) for the water intake and outlet at the filter head.
Connect the water intake hose to the existing check/shut off valve in the intake.
Connect the water outlet hose to the appliance.
5.5 Installing a water meter
BWT recommends the installation of a water meter in the inlet of the filter cartridge in case the
filter system is used for a device without an integrated water meter (e.g. coffee machine) which
indicates the required replacement of the filter cartridge. With the water meter the filter cartrid-
ge's residual capacity can be determined at any time. Observe the operating instructions of the
BWT .
5.6 Installing/replacing the filter cartridge
I
CAUTION!
f The filter cartridge may only be installed in a genuine BWT filter head.
f Work cleanly, avoid impurities on the filter system.
f Close the check/shut off valve before exchanging the filter cartridge.
Unpack the filter cartridge and remove the hygienic cap.
Before installing the filter cartridge mark the installation and replacement date (no later than
6
6 months) on the type label of the filter cartridge. Optionally, a service pass can be obtained.
Fill in the dates and fix the service pass to the filter head e.g. with a calble tie.
In case of replacement unscrew the filter cartridge clockwise out of the filter head.
Screw the new filter cartridge counter clockwise into the filter head.
7
Open the check/shut off valve and check the system for leaks.
NOTE!
f During commissioning, the filter has to be purged/flushed.
f The minimal flushing volume is given in Section 2.2. The volume of purge water is to be
dismissed.
