Your Davey Cartridge Filter
Congratulations on your purchase of a quality product from the Davey range
of Pool and Spa Equipment. You are assured of many years of reliable and
efficient performance from your Davey Filter backed by Davey’s 5 year tank
guarantee.*
Davey Easy Clear™ Cartridge Filters have been specifically designed for
the filtration of spa and swimming pool water. They should not be used for
any other purpose without first consulting your Davey Dealer or Davey Cus-
tomer Service Centre.
Davey Cartridge Filters provide economy, high performance and conve-
nience in a well-designed pressure filter. The polyester element can be re-
moved quickly for rinse cleaning without water loss. Davey Cartridge Filters
feature large filter areas which ensure even water distribution, peak filtration
performance and longer filter cycles.
The corrosion-resistant construction of Davey Cartridge Filters provides
long-life and durability. Davey Cartridge Filters are capacity matched with
Davey pool pumps forming a total pool filtration system that lasts and lasts.
Davey Cartridge Filters are also very suitable for use with other pool pumps.
Take care to match the pump and filter capacities to gain maximum perfor-
mance and efficiency.
The Sparkling Clear Water Difference
Cartridge filtration is an effective trouble-free proven method of filtration.
Pool water enters the filter and passes through a polyester element car-
tridge. Suspended particles are trapped and the water is returned to the
pool. As the build-up of dirt in the element increases, so the water pressure
rises and the flow decreases. When the pressure reaches an unacceptable
level, the element must be removed and cleaned. (Spray washing with a
common garden hose is generally sufficient).

Installation and Operating Instructions Location
The filter should be placed in its permanent location, preferably as close to
the pool as practicable. Position the filter tank and pump on a level concrete
slab or similar base. Allow sufficient space around the filter for routine main-
tenance and provide for adequate ventilation and drainage.
Place the pump in position on the slab and locate the filter alongside with
the appropriate pump inlet connection oriented towards the pump. Refer to
the specification section for the minimum clearance measurements required
for each model.

Weather Protection
Davey Cartridge Filters are constructed of corrosion resistant materials.
However, to ensure years of reliable performance, it is recommended that
the filtration system is adequately protected from the weather.
Assembly
Assemble the pressure gauge to the filter lid using Teflon tape on the male
thread. Do not over-tighten.
Pipe Connections
Piping should be independently supported and not impose heavy loads on
the filter or pump. Use 40mm or 50mm pipe for pump and pool return lines.
50mm should always be used if length of piping is over 15m.
If the pump and filter are located below pool water level, it is necessary to
fit isolating valves in the pipe between the pump and the pool, and in the
return line from the filter to the pool.
1. Pump to the Filter
Davey 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 quick connect couplings,
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 lu-
bricant 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 posi-
tion.
The filter base is provided with four mounting holes to enable it to be se-
cured, if required.
Barrel unions need to be hand tightened on. No sealant, glues or
silicones are required.
