1. PUMP TO THE FILTER

Monarch Series Cartridge Filters are equipped with two inlet ports

marked ‘INLET’. Select the inlet port most suitable for the installation

and plug the other inlet port with the blanking cap provided. Using

the barrel unions provided, connect the pool pump delivery piping

to the selected inlet port. Tighten by hand only. Ensure the oring on

the fitting is clean, lubricated with oring lubricant and in the correct

position.

2. FILTER TO POOL RETURN

Using quick connect couplings, connect the pool return piping

to the filter fitting marked ‘OUTLET’. Tighten the fitting by hand

only. Ensure the oring on the fitting is clean, lubricated with oring

lubricant and in the correct position.

The filter base is provided with four mounting holes to enable it to

be secured, if required.

FILTER OPERATION

1.

Make sure the pump is primed according to manufacturer’s

directions.

2.

Be sure all valves are open on suction and discharge lines.

Ensure the air bleed valve on the filter lid is open and the lid

lock ring is in place and secure.

3.

Start the pump. Close the air bleed valve when water is

expelled.

4.

To determine the correct operating conditions with a clean

filter, check that the pressure gauge reading is 80kPa or below.

5.

Record the pressure gauge reading or mark the needle

position on the face of the pressure gauge.

6.

Operate the filter for a sufficient time to circulate the total

pool water volume daily. The filter should also be operated

at all times the pool is in use and for about one hour

afterwards. During winter, the running time may be reduced.

Filter operating requirements will vary for spa applications,

depending upon the system design, type and size of spa.

Consult your builder or spa supplier.

7.

When the pressure gauge reading is 50 - 70kPa higher than

the ‘clean filter’ reading as in (4) above, it is time to clean the

element/s. (See “Cartridge cleaning procedure”)
