Service Instructions
Check the Series CRS separator periodically for signs of external leakage or corrosion. If any is found, the separator
must be replaced.
WARNING: Signs of leakage or corrosion are indications the Series CRS separator may have failed. Periodically
check the expansion tank for signs of external leakage or corrosion. If found, the tank must be replaced.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury or death and property damage.
1. The system water contains air bubbles, entrained air, and dirt particles.
2. Large air bubbles quickly rise to the top of the vessel and into the vent. Micro-bubbles coalesce and form larger
bubbles. Entrained air is pulled out of solution and forms micro bubbles.
3. The air vent releases air fast as it can be separated.
4. Dirt particles are strained or filtered from the water and collect in the bottom of the vessel.
5. The coalescing medium/filter separates the air and dirt from the water. Stainless steel construction provides durability
and long life.
6. Should the need to clean the coalescing medium arise, the standard removable bottom cover provides ease of
removal and cleaning.
7. Collected sediment can be flushed out through the blow down valve.
