The following procedures are required to
install Pall disposable filter capsule
assemblies and should be read thoroughly as
they contain valuable information gained by
extensive experience. It is very important that
all instructions are carefully followed. If some

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

Important: Filter capsules are NOT supplied

with companion fittings

(a) Carefully cut open packaging. DO NOT

open by pushing the filter capsule through
the protective bag.

(b) Install the filter capsule assembly in line

using compatible connections. Ensure the
flow direction conforms with the inlet
and outlet markings on the filter
capsule assembly.

downstream of the filter capsule assembly,
a check valve may be needed to prevent
back pressure damage due to reverse flow.

(d) Where a rapidly closing downstream valve

is present, the possibility of pressure
pulsing and subsequent assembly damage
exists. The assembly should be protected
by a surge tank positioned between the
valve and the filter capsule assembly.

REPLACEMENT

Isolate the system flow upstream of the filter
capsule and depressurise through system
drain valve.

(a) Disconnect filter capsule from the system,

note a small amount of ink will be released
when the capsule is disconnected
(up to 2 ml).

(b) Discard the filter capsule in accordance

with local Health and Safety Procedures
associated with the process fluid.
