Atlas Filtri FDM-1P Notice De Montage, D'utilisation Et D'entretien page 7

Dear Customer, thank you for choosing this Atlas Filtri

The FDM-1P sludge filter is the ideal solution to resolve system issues due to
particle contamination (especially rust and sand) that form through corrosion and build-ups during
normal thermal system operation.
The magnetic filters ensure continuous boiler protection, trapping all the impurities that are in the
system, and keeping them from circulating thereby preventing the system components from being
worn and damaged (for example, circulators and heat exchangers).
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Plastic 3/4" connections: Reinforced PA66polyamide.
Body: Reinforced PA66polyamide.
Cap: Reinforced PA66polyamide.
Filtering cartridge: stainless steel AISI 304 L.
Ball valve: CW 617 N Brass.
Swivel joint: CW 617 N. brass
O-rings: EPDM.
Discharge cap: Brass CW 614 N - 1/2".
Magnet: NdFeB - 4500 Gauss.
Magnet container: stainless steel AISI 316.
Magnet holder: Polypropylene.

OPERATING CONDITIONS
Compatible liquids: Water, water + glycol.
Max. operating pressure: 3 bar at 90°C (43 psi at 194°F).
Operating temperature: 4÷90°C (39.2÷194°F).
OPERATION
In the FDM-1P filter, the liquid that flows through the filtering cartridge comes into contact with the
magnet; the ferrous sludge is trapped thanks to the double effect of mechanical filtration (exerted
by the cartridge) and magnetic field (exerted by the magnet).
The effect is further amplified by varying cross-sections: the filter body has a greater diameter than
the piping so the liquid slows inside the filter and the suspended particles can be more efficiently
captured and trapped.
In this way, all the magnetic (ferrous residue) and non-magnetic (algae, mud, sand, etc.)
contaminants in the system are trapped in the filter body.
INSTRUCTIONS AND USE MANUAL
- Exclusively use to treat water mains of a known quality, and in any way, only use water with a pH
between 6.5 and 9.5.
WARNING: for uses different form those foreseen, it is mandatory to have technical consent of the
manufacturer/reseller.
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
FDM-1P must be installed by a qualified technician.
ATTENTION: before carrying out any installation or maintenance operation, ensure that the heating
system is isolated.
On the return circuit, at the boiler input, install FDM-1P to protect it from all impurities present in
the system, especially in the start-up phase (Diagram A).
Ensure that suitable access is given for repair and maintenance interventions.
FDM-1P it can be installed with different orientations.
- In the event of limited spaces under the boiler (i.e.: boiler installed in kitchen cabinets) FDM-1P
must be installed with the main body horizontal and the cover facing forward.
- Should there be more space available for installation, it is possible to position the FDM-1P with
the body upright and the cap facing downwards.
with main cartridge holder / magnet body aimed frontwards.
