ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
B1 PULIFIL INSTALLATION
B1.1 Before the installation
Warning! Before the installation of PuliFIL please verify that the water supplied fulfils the requirements of European
drinking water directives 98/83/CE. Check for the compliance of the hydraulic distribution system and the
installation of the filter to local regulations. The manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for damage to
persons or things caused by improper installation of the filter and/or the installation of the filter in a waterworks not
compliant with local regulations.
PuliFIL is not equipped, by standard, with any flooding-control system or other devices able to detect, control or
alarm in case of runaway water losses. In case, consider, apart, an adequate anti flooding device.
Do not install PuliFIL downstream of boilers or in devices involving the transit, inside the filter, of water at higher than
40°C temperature. Install PuliFIL upstream of devices to protect. PuliFIL cannot be used to treat closed loop water
(ex heating systems water) or any other applications not cited in this manual.
B1.2 Requirements for the place of installation
PuliFIL must be installed indoor, in an hygienically suitable place, dry and clean, protected from frost, exposure to
sunlight, moisture, atmospheric agent (rain, snow and hail). Do not install PuliFIL in wells, near drains, or in
smelly places. Do not install where any kind of chemical vapours or gas and fumes may be present. Avoid installation
in tight spaces which cannot allow easy ordinary and extraordinary maintenance In succession the limit values of the
allowed environmental parameters for the PuliFIL installation:
Ambient temperature (min./max.), °C: 5 – 40
B1.3 Laws, Regulations and Standards
The installation of PuliFIL must be performed in compliance with local laws, regulations and standards.
B1.4 Instruction for installation
The installation must be perform in accordance with best practice, in line with all the current legislation and the rating
data.
Before installing the filter make sure that the plant fits with the laws or regulations or local recommendations
produced by the office in charge. Before installing the filter, clean pipes and appliances installed upstream of the filter
to eliminate foreign bodies which can cause the malfunction of the filter itself. If the level of cleanliness in the plant is
not adequate you should sanitize the plant and the possible storage tanks before the installation of PuliFIL. The filter
should not be installed between the boiler and safety devices.
The hydraulic distribution system implemented to install devices connected to the water distribution system must be
provided with a system able to ensure the non return of the treated water in the distribution system, and with a
manual or automatic by-pass valve system in order to allow the withdrawal of non treated water interrupting the flow
of treated water.
Warning! Avoid solvents, oils, acidic or caustic substances and detergents to come in contact with the
external plastic and brass part of the device. In case of very strong impact during the transport or the
assembly do not install the device and replace it even in case of non evident damages to the plastic parts.
Limit the presence of waterhammer.
B1.5 Hydraulic checks after installation
After opening the water upstream of the equipment check for leaks;
1) Verify that the equipment is correctly positioned in order to ease ordinary maintenance.
2) Check for the presence of a by-pass circuit allowing to exclude the filter from serving and check for the
presence of sampling faucets installed upstream and downstream the filter.
