เขียนโดย Siladaporn on , , , , , ,

This is the unit that dirt and debris removed from a body of water, like a swimming pool or spa. This device is one of the most important, because crystal environment depends on how the device works.

Some of the parts of a cartridge filter are as follows:

• Upper button and / or clamp assembly - usually at the top of the unit and when unscrewed the filter head there. Note: Be sure always turned off the pump and the airPressure in the tank has been released before loosening the upper knob.
• Tank Head - provides easy access to the inner cartridge element. As a rule, can be rotated to bring the pressure gauge and manual air relief valve in a comfortable position.
• Tank - unity, is housed in the element.
• Air Relief Valve - Allows you to clean up the air that is inside the unit.
• pressure gauge - 0-60 PSI normally reads and advise when the item is dirty and needs to beDisassembly and cleaning.
• element - usually develops high-quality fiberglass-reinforced polyester with molded end caps. This device can be removed and cleaned many times.
• Inlet and outlet - ports that are used to connect the filter to the lines that flow from the water and allows. Depending on the brand and model, these ports can be either a slip or threaded connection.
• Lower plug - used to have to drain the unit if necessary.

As a cartridge filter should be cleaned andserviced?

• Turn the PUMP SYSTEM
• Let the air out of the tank by opening the air relief valve.
• Turn off the slider up or release of the upper clamp assembly and the top of the unit.
• Remove the item from the tank.
• Use a garden hose and a pressure nozzle to remove dirt and dust from the material.
• Replace the cartridge into the tank.
• Replace the top.
• Drag the slider up and / or install the terminal assembly and hand. tighten
• Start the pump system, the air inside the tank and connect the bleed air pressure relief valve assembly.
• Check the system examined for leaks.
• Observe the gauge reading.

How can you make sure to keep the filter as long as possible?

Clean the filter at regular intervals is very important. Since the item "load", the dirt and debris, more and more pressure on the device is claimed. If the device can continue operating withoutCleaning cartridges can and will be damaged. Regular cleaning removes the dirt and allowed to operate at a high level.

How important is the gauge?
Checking the pressure gauge on the top of the tank when the unit is clean and in view of the reading is very important. When the pressure inside the device rises 5-7 pounds, it is time to perform a cleaning. Example: Clean Reading = 15 pounds, pressure goes up to 21 pounds = time to clean.

If the cartridges are washed withHydrochloric acid at regular intervals?
Acid washing shortens the life of the cartridge and should be performed only to a limited extent, if at all. Acid remove calcium build up within the element. The use of hydrochloric exercise extreme caution, proper safety equipment and follow safety rules for the disposal of the used acid. The products are for soaking, to remove excess oils that are available, they should be used according to manufactures recommendations. Please note that when cleaning with hydrochloric acid, ifOils are present in the material, acidity can "lock" the oil into the material. It is very important that a product to remove oils BEFORE acid is used for calcium transfer to be completed.

How and why construction on the element calcium?
Poor water chemistry (high calcium and pH values) in your swimming pool and spa water will help to build up calcium. Regular testing is crucial, and it is important to monitor them in order to maintain cleaner and betterfunctioning filters.
