To reduce energy consumption from excessive pressure drop and minimize chance of contaminant carryover, install new elements
before pressure drop reaches 10 psid (except grade RD). Install new RD elements when hydrocarbon vapors are first detected
downstream or every six months, whichever comes first.

NOTE
Filter models F101-500 thru F101-2000 are equipped

On units with manual drain valve, stand clear and turn manual
valve until fully open. Leave valve open until all pressure is out
of filter housing and bottom blind flange is removed. On units
with automatic drain valves (timed electric type) allow valve to
cycle until all pressure is out of filter housing.
