FLANGED CONNECTION: Flange bolts should be tight enough to slightly compress the gasket and make a good seal, without distorting or putting excessive stress on the flanges. Suitable washers should be used between the bolt head and flange and the nut and flange. Bolts should be tightened in alternating sequence.
RECOMMENDED FLANGE BOLT TORQUE. USE WELL LUBRICATED METAL BOLTS AND NUTS. USE SOFT RUBBER GASKETS. FLANGE BOLT TORQUE FLANGE BOLT TORQUE SIZE DIA. FT. LBS. SIZE DIA. FT.

At least 5 pipe diameters should be between these strainers and an elbow. As in all plastic piping the maximum fluid velocity is 8 feet per second. This velocity minimizes the effects of valve closure and pump start up or shut down. SCREEN CLEANING: EXTREME CAUTION MUST BE TAKEN WHEN WORKING ON THIS STRAINER. THE PIPING SYSTEM MUST BE DEPRESSURIZED AND DRAINED. PROPER CARE MUST BE TAKEN. CONSULT M.S.D.S. (MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS) INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR SPECIFIC APPLICATION. When the pressure drop across the strainer is in excess of 5 PSI the screen requires cleaning. To clean the screen remove the screen cap nut from the strainer by turning counter clockwise. The collected debris should be removed with the screen. Clean the screen. DO NOT POUND OR DEFORM THE SCREEN . Insert the screen back into the strainer with the flange, if one is on the screen into the body first. Install the o-ring in the body groove. Use a non-petroleum base lubricant to lubricate the o-ring and thread , and re-assemble the cap to the strainer.
