9. Installation & Operation
Before you get started…
All fasteners and fitting should be properly inspected and secured before operation as they may be loosened in transit
Personnel safety practices should apply at all times
Safety glasses or face shields and gloves should be worn
Do not service glycol feed package with out disconnecting power
Close isolation valve and release pressure before servicing any components on the system
All liquids in system should be drained before servicing
Glycol feed package should be installed by qualified personnel.

10. Installation & Operation
Although there is no power requirements, bypass/filter & bromine feeders should not be exposed to direct elements. In the case there is no dry location that is convenient to install the bypass/filter feeder. A shelter, awning or shed should to be installed to extend product life.
Once location is decided on, feeder needs to be securely mounted. Be sure that flat bottom feeders are strapped to secure surface and dome bottom feeders (with legs included) are secured with local building codes. In accordance, outlet piping should be supported within 12 inches of feeder. System vibrations should be minimal.

11. Installation & Operation
CONNECTING TO THE SYSTEM Feeder bypass flow rate (In GPM) shall not exceed volume of feeder (In Gallons). Flow rates in excess of feeder volume, (one gallon feeder flow rate should be 1GPM) dramatically reduces feeder and filter life. Flow control valves should be installed on discharge side of feeder. All GTP feeder pressure and temperature limitations are designated on product label. Be sure the feeder meets or exceeds your systems requirements. GTP suggests the installation of air release valve, if not already supplied.

12. Installation & Operation
(Standard feeders and Pleated Filter Feeders) “FB” Flat bottom feeders come standard with 2 fittings. Lower side fitting is the inlet and the upper neck fitting is the discharge. “DB” Dome bottom feeders come standard with 3 fittings. Lower side fitting is the inlet, upper neck fittings are the discharge and the bottom dome fitting is for the drain.

15. Installation & Operation
1/4” Air Release Valve
LID REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (Standard Victaulic or Bolted Closure)
Close feeder isolation valves
Open pressure relief valve in lid
Loosen bolts and remove bolts (15/16” wrench)
Loosen and remove half couplings
Loosen and remove gasket/end cap.
Remove Filter (if any) and fill feeder.
When reassembling, it is easiest to put gasket on end cap before placing on neck of feeder.
Add half couplings, align with groove on neck and pinch together by hand. Be sure not to pinch gasket in coupling as tightened.
Add bolts and tighten till snug. Close pressure relief valve and slowly open isolation valves. Victaulic Caps will rise and seat, once pressure is applied.
Return valves to normal operating position.

18. Installation & Operation
PLEATED FILTER INSTALLATION / INSPECTION
Isolate feeder and release internal pressure with drain valve or other. When it is safe, remove lid assembly and remove pleated filter assembly. Disassemble pleated filter assembly and inspect for damage and rinse filter.
Align filter and Viton gasket with handle assembly.
Place stainless steel hex bolt down handle assembly and through filter.
Install keep nut and filter holder through bottom or filter.
Screw long keep nut assembly to and of hex bolt. Keep handle, filter and nut assembly aligned as you tighten.
Place filter assembly through neck opening in feeder and reinstall lid.

19. Installation & Operation
SOCK FILTER INSTALLATION / INSPECTION
Isolate feeder and release internal pressure with drain valve or other. When it is safe, remove lid assembly and remove pleated filter assembly. Disassemble sock filter assembly and inspect for damage and rinse filter.
Collapse sock filter and insert through handle assembly until Ring is just above retaining washer..
While still collapsed, insert sock filter into perforated basket assembly.
Reinsert sock filter assembly into feeder opening.
Reinstall feeder closure and resume flow. Flow will expand filter sock to perforated basket.

20. Maintenance
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE Routine maintenance in this section is referred to as checking a feeder once a month until a maintenance schedule can be determined, filter models may need frequent cleaning on start-up of new closed loop systems. All fasteners should be check for proper operations. Maintenance and care will depend upon the usage and environment in which the feeder is subject to.
