ფრთხილად ამოიღეთ ყველა კომპონენტი შეფუთვიდან. შეამოწმეთ ტრანსპორტირების დროს მიყენებული ნებისმიერი დაზიანება. დაზიანების აღმოჩენის შემთხვევაში, დაუყოვნებლივ დაუკავშირდით თქვენს მომწოდებელს.
3.2 საიტის შერჩევა
Choose a level, solid surface for the filter, preferably in a well-drained area. Ensure adequate clearance around the filter for future maintenance and servicing. The filter should be installed as close to the pool as possible to minimize friction loss from plumbing.
3.3 შეკრება
- Position the filter tank base on the selected site.
- Carefully place the filter manifold and cartridges inside the lower tank half. Ensure they are seated correctly.
- Place the upper tank half onto the lower tank half, aligning the two halves.
- Secure the tank halves using the posi-ring closure. Ensure the ring is properly seated and tightened according to the manufacturer's specifications to prevent leaks and ensure safe operation.
- Connect the plumbing from the pool pump to the filter inlet and the return line to the filter outlet. Use appropriate sealants and fittings to ensure watertight connections.
- Install the pressure gauge into the designated port on the filter tank.

4. საოპერაციო ინსტრუქციები
4.1 საწყისი გაშვება
- Ensure all plumbing connections are secure and the filter drain plug is closed.
- Open the air relief valve on top of the filter tank.
- Start the pool pump. Allow the filter tank to fill with water, and air to escape through the air relief valve.
- Once a steady stream of water emerges from the air relief valve, close the valve.
- Note the initial pressure gauge reading. This is your clean filter operating pressure.
4.2 ჩვეულებრივი ოპერაცია
The PLM200 filter is designed for continuous filtration. Monitor the pressure gauge regularly. As dirt accumulates in the filter cartridges, the pressure will rise. When the pressure gauge reads 8-10 PSI above the clean filter operating pressure, it is time to clean the filter cartridges.
The filter's design, with complete media coverage and shallow pleats, optimizes dirt holding capabilities, leading to longer filter cycles and reduced cleaning frequency.

5.1 Cleaning the Filter Cartridges
WARNING: Always turn off the pump and relieve all pressure from the filter before opening the tank.
- Turn off the pool pump and disconnect power.
- Open the air relief valve to release any remaining pressure.
- Open the filter drain plug to drain the water from the tank.
- Remove the posi-ring closure and carefully lift the upper tank half.
- Remove the filter cartridges from the tank.
- Hose down the cartridges thoroughly with a garden hose to remove debris. For stubborn dirt or oils, use a specialized filter cleaning solution as directed by the cleaner manufacturer.
- Inspect cartridges for damage (tears, cracks). Replace damaged cartridges.
- Reinstall the clean cartridges, ensuring they are properly seated.
- Reassemble the filter tank, securing the posi-ring closure.
- Follow the "Initial Start-up" procedure (Section 4.1) to restart the filter.
