Technical characteristics and operating principle 1.1 Technical characteristics of the automatic filter 1.1.2 Operating principle of the automatic filter During the filtering phase, the Rotodisk® Automatic filter works like a normal disk filter. The filtering medium, consisting of a set of disks piled onto a sturdy Nylon support, filters suspended matter from the flowing water stream. The progressive accumulation of suspended particulate matter on the surface of the filtering medium increases the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the filter (pressure drop). When the pressure drop is too high, the filtering efficiency decreases, and the filter must be cleansed. By reversing the flow of water, compared to the normal filtering stage, the axial pressure on the disks is removed and the disks are made rotate by strong water jets. The impact of the water on the disk surface and the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of the disks allow a thorough wash of the system. In a filtering station, each filter is backwashed using the filtered (clean) water from the other filters, that are working normally and can supply also the other equipment. The backwashing phase can be started in manual mode, using the solenoid valve, or in automatic mode, by programming the control unit. For example, the backwashing can be enabled at pre-fixed intervals or as soon as a given pressure drop is reached between the inlet and outlet manifolds. For further details, please consult the manuals of the control unit and of the differential pressure gauge. Fig.1 - Filtering stage Fig.2 - Backwashing stage 4 Copyright ©2006 Irritec srl.

Technical characteristics and operating principle 1.2 Technical characteristics of the filtering station 1.2.2 Operating principle of the filtering station During the filtering stage the automatic filter battery works like a standard manual disk filter battery: the water is filtered (from the outside of the filtering medium) by filters grass, according to the following diagram (suspended matter is stopped by the external surface of the disks). For example, in case of backwashing of the filter n. 1, the 3way valve positioned on the filter n. 1 is activated by the control unit and reverse the flow of water passing through the filter n. 1. The clean water from filter n. 2 and 3 crosses the filter n. 1 (from the inside of the filtering medium), so as to remove the dirt from the external surface of the disks. The backwashing stage, which makes it possible to clean every single filter, requires the installation of 3-way valves on the inlet manifold, so as to reverse the flow of water passing through the filters. The 3-way valves are controlled by the control unit, that makes it possible to preset: 1) the interval between a complete backwashing cycle and the next one; 2) the duration of the backwashing stage for every single filter; 3) the interval between the backwashing of a single filter and the next one (during the same cycle). 8 Copyright ©2006 Irritec srl.

Assembly of the filtering station Identify the different parts of the filtering stations, as shown in the figure on page 7 and please refer to these instructions for a correct assembly and start-up of the system. WARNING: The filtering station shall be installed on a sturdy flat horizontal surface, if possible indoor. Make sure that the place of installation does not hinder the assembly and maintenance operations. When delivered, the filtering station is partially assembled. To complete mounting, proceed as follows: 1) Remove all parts from their original package. 2) Insert the feet into the relevant seats of the manifolds and secure them with the screws provided. The front and rear feet have not the same length: the longer feet shall be inserted in the manifold connected to the 3-way valves, while the shorter feet shall be inserted in the manifold connected to the filters. 3) Insert the filtering media inside the filter bodies, after greasing the seals with silicone grease. 4) Grease the seal positioned at the base of the cover and close the filter. Clamp the mounted parts with the metal band. 5) Prepare the drain by connecting the relevant PE tubing (Ø 63 mm) to the elbows on the 3-way valves. Make sure that the drain piping is free and not under pressure (fig. 5), and that the distance between the valve outlet and the drain pipe outlet (h min.) is at least 70 cm (fig. 3) Please respect this distance also when, due to the overall dimensions of the system, the manifolds’ feet must be shortened (fig. 4).

Start-up instructions 3.1 General recommendations - Before starting the system, make sure that all its components have been assembled properly. - Use the transparent polycarbonate cover (if provided) only for short inspections or maintenance operations. Do not keep the transparent cover on the filter when the station is off: the exposure of the disks to sunlight is likely to facilitate the growth of algae, reducing the filtration efficiency. - Make sure that the filters’ metal bands are closed. - Set the pressure difference on the differential pressure gauge so that it exceeds by approx. 0.3 bar the value detected by the differential pressure gauge under normal working conditions, with clean filters (the ideal value depends on the quality of the water to be treated and the number of available filters). - Set a backwashing time sufficient for a thorough cleansing of the filtering media. As a rule a 60-90 sec. backwashing is recommended for a thorough cleansing of the filter. Conduct some tests in order to determine the best conditions, according to the type of water to be treated. 3.2 Nominal operating conditions Maximum working pressure: Minimum backwashing pressure: Recommended backwashing time: Backwashing flow rate (at 3 bar): 12 10 bar a 20°C 2,8 bar > 60 sec 145 l/min (8,7 m3/h) Copyright ©2006 Irritec srl.

Maintenance 4.1 Routine maintenance The Rotodisk® Automatic filtering station requires a regular maintenance according to the water quality and the working conditions, so as to ensure perfect and continuous operation over time. The water quality may change over the time, and the filter’s operating conditions may change accordingly, as well as the frequency of maintenance operations. It is recommended to have maintenance operations performed by qualified personnel, according to the instructions given throughout this manual. WARNING: Every single maintenance operation shall be carried out with the system stopped, after releasing the pressure inside the filters. 1) Cleaning the filtering medium a) Release the metal band and remove the cover of the filter. Remove the disk medium. > During this operation, be sure that no waste matter falls inside the filter, as it could be recirculated after the subsequent start-up. To prevent this problem, it is recommended to carry out a backwashing phase just before proceeding with this operation; after removing the cover take the waste matter away from the cartridge base, using a jet of clean water. b) Unscrew the screw in the upper part of the filtering medium, being careful with the spring tensioned inside the system. Do not compress the propeller. > Copyright ©2006 Irritec srl.

Versione Revisione Operating and maintenance instructions Rotodisk® Automatic filter and filtering station 01.05/2006 00/ 4. Maintenance 4.1 Routine maintenance 2) Cleaning the valve filter The filter positioned on the inlet manifold supplies the water for the hydraulic control of the valves and the differential pressure gauge. Clean it regularly in order to prevent any malfunctions of the solenoid valves. Unscrew the cover of the filter positioned on the bottom or on the side of the manifold. Take out the filtering medium and wash it thoroughly. Clean the cover and the interior of the filter with a jet of clean water. Reintroduce the medium into the filter body, being careful with the direction of insertion: the part to be fitted into the cover has the shorter inside diameter. Screw up the cover, and place the seal in the correct position. 3) Cleaning the air valve Unscrew the valve from the filter cover. Open the valve, by unscrewing its two parts. Take out the float by removing the seal from the valve body. Wash all components with plenty of clean water. Check that the drain hole is free. Reassemble the valve being careful with the correct positioning of all components. Clean the threaded part (3/4”) and attach the valve to the cover again using a teflon tape.
