TESTING <br /> The system was factory tested prior to shipment, but leaks and other damage can occur during <br /> shipment. <br /> 1. Remove the top of the circulating pump strainer, and fill the strainer with water. Replace <br /> the strainer lid. This allows the pump to be primed. Do not operate the pump prior to <br /> filling the strainer with water, or damage to the pump will occur. <br /> 2. Open the valves from the treatment tank to the pump, and from the sand filter to the <br /> treatment tank, (valve handles in line with the direction of flow). Ensure that the outlet <br /> valve from the polish filter is closed, and that all drain valves are closed. Open the valve <br /> from the polish filter to the chlorinator. <br /> 3. Start the circulating pump by operating the switch on the control panel. <br /> 4. Observe the pressure gauges on both fibers to ensure that no pressures exceed 40 psi at <br /> any time. If these pressures are exceeded, 1MMEDIATELY stop the system, disconnect <br /> the electrical supply, and investigate the cause. Adjust the valve from the sand filter to the <br /> treatment tank until the pressure gauge on the sand filter registers 20 psi with the system <br /> operating. <br /> 5. Allow the circulating pump to operate for 10 to 15 minutes, and observe the system for <br /> until all leaks have been corrected, and the circulating pump has operated for a period of <br /> 15 minutes without any further leaks occurring. <br /> 6. With the circulating pump operating, carefully open the air bleed valves on top of each <br /> filter in turn, and allow the air to escape until water appears at the bleed valve. Shut each <br /> valve when this occurs. <br /> 7. Manually raise the low level float and note that the circulating pump shuts off. If the <br /> pump does not shut off, shut down the pump and correct the problem. <br /> 8. Start the system feed pump (also known as the sump pump, or transfer pump), and adjust <br /> it to pump at a rate just above the maximum rate of reuse. Please refer to the Table 1 for <br /> guidance on the maximum rates of instantaneous and daily flow. WITH THE PUMP <br /> OPERATING, loosen the union securing the oil skimmer bar in the coalescer so that the <br /> slot is 1/4" to 3/8" above the level of the water, and retighten the union. This adjustment <br /> allows for an accumulation of oil on top of the coalescer of 2" to 3" prior to oil flowing <br /> out of the coalescer. This is the correct operation. If the bar is set too low, water will <br /> flow out of the coalescer with the oil. If the bar is set too high, oil will accumulate in the <br /> coalescer, and eventually flow into the treatment tank with the water. This may cause the <br /> sand in the sand filter to become blinded, and have to be replaced. <br /> 12 <br />
