enclosure. It is not necessary to remove the nuts from the
bolts. (See Figure 1).

Element(s) are shipped separately and must be installed
before filter is ready for service. Remove hex fastener(s)
from tie rod(s) in housing.

Remove element(s) from packaging and remove o-ring(s)
from end cap(s) of element(s). Install o-ring(s) in o-ring
groove(s) on hex fastener(s).

Install element(s) in housing so that tie rod protrudes
through small hole in endcap.

Thread hex fastener(s) onto the tie rod(s) and tighten so that
element(s) are held firmly in place. Do not over tighten.
(See Figure 1).

Repeat steps 11 thru 14 for each new element required.

(See Table 5 ).

Before closing housing, inspect baffle to make certain that
new elements have been installed in each position.

With enclosure o-rings in place, carefully lower enclosure
and raise all swing bolts over tabs. Tighten all nuts evenly.

Close drain valve; then slowly open inlet and outlet valves.
Close by-pass valves if provided.

Filter is now in service.

Drain oil removal filters every shift.

Check differential pressures regularly on coalescing and
particulate filters (AA, A, B, C, RA, RB, RC, and HT grades).
When differential pressure reaches 10 psid, install clean
elements. On adsorbing filters (grade RD), install clean
elements when hydrocarbon vapors are first detected
downstream or every six months, whichever comes first.

For correct replacement element model numbers, see label
on filter housing and/or the bottom endcap of the element.
(Refer to Table 6).
