Construction details
Isolation ball valves
Backflow preventer,
AutoFill™,
code 553642A
Filter housing, code NA573100, with
demineralizing cartridge, code NA573102
Most closed-loop hydronic systems lose small amounts of water and air over time. These losses come from automatic air purging of dirt separators, weepage at air vents, valve packings or circulator flange gaskets. Fluid loss also occurs when a component such as a circulator is replaced. Over time, a standard make-up water assembly would allow untreated water to enter a system as demineralized water is lost. If the system was filled with treated demineralized when commissioned, untreated make-up water could bring undesirable compounds, such as calcium carbonate, back into the system. To prevent this, Caleffi offers an enhanced assembly, code NA573022, that includes a demineralizer cartridge. This is a replenishment water treatment assembly consisting of a backflow preventer and a pre-adjustable automatic filling valve with pressure gauge used to automatically feed small quantities of demineralized water into the system. This assembly is shown above. This unit would be installed, of course, after initially filling the system with the Caleffi NA570 series HYDROFILL™ portable water treatment filling unit.
code 573403A
This assembly uses a special 10-inch demineralizing filter cartridge, code NA573102, containing the color changing resin beads necessary to demineralize water passing through it at relatively low flow rates. The cartridge assembly can be isolated by closing the two ball valves. The clear housing can then be unscrewed to remove and replace the cartridge. The Caleffi cartridge will appear blue color when new. Its internal color will change to amber as the resin beads approach a spent condition. Each cartridge can demineralize approximately 30 gallons of water at 180 ppm of untreated water. This should provide several years of normal make-up water supply, assuming only minor water losses from the system occur.

Installation
The Caleffi NA573 replenishment water treatment filling unit must be installed in accordance with the diagrams contained in this instruction sheet taking into account all the applicable local codes and regualtions.
Before installing a Caleffi NA573 filling unit, the system must be thoroughly flushed to remove impurities or any debris which may have accumulated during installation. Failure to remove dirt or debris may affect system performance and the manufacturer's guarantee. In addition, the system must be filled with demineralized water with total dissolved solids (TDS) less than 30 ppm. This can be accomplished with the Caleffi NA570 series HYDROFILL™ portable water treatment filling unit. Because the NA573 filling unit is designed for system replenishment with a 1 gpm maximum flow rate for optimal demineraliztion, it can not be used for filling the system.
Note: The Caleffi NA570 HYDROFILL™ portable water treatment filling unit's built in TDS meter will indicate the TDS level during filling operation. If this is not used for filling the system, the Caleffi NA575002 TDS tester kit can be used to verifty the system fluid TDS level is less than 30 ppm before operation.
The Caleffi NA573 filling unit must be installed horizontally, following the flow direction indicated by the arrow on the filter cartridge head, and also as indicated on the AutoFill™ and back flow preventer.
The Caleffi NA573 filling unit comes pre-assembled and pressure tested. Make sure that you have connecting piping and proper connections to accomodate the assembled unit installation with 19 inches end-to-end length.
The Caleffi NA573 filling unit must be installed in an accessible location to facilitate testing and servicing. The back flow preventer just be installed with the vent port connected via an air gap to a discharge line, in accordance with the local plumbing code requirements and keeping a minimum distance of 12" from the floor. Do not install where the discharge can cause water damage.
The NA573 replenishment water treatment filling unit must not be installed upside down.

Maintance
The Caleffi NA573 assembly uses a special 10-inch cartridge insert, code NA573102, containing the color changing resin beads necessary to demineralize water passing through it at relatively low flow rates. The cartridge assembly can be isolated for replacement by closing the two ball valves. The clear housing can then be unscrewed to remove and replace the cartridge. The Caleffi cartridge will appear blue color when new. Its internal color will change to amber as the resin beads approach a spent condition. Each cartridge can demineralize approximately 30 gallons of water. This should provide several years of normal make-up water supply, assuming only minor water losses from the system occur.
Replacement of demineralization cartridge
The 10-inch cartridge insert, code NA573102, containing the color changing resin beads that demineralizes water passing through it, will appear blue color when new. The internal color will change to amber as the resin beads approach a spent condition. Each cartridge can demineralize approximately 30 gallons of water. This should provide several years of normal make-up water supply, assuming only minor water losses from the system occur.
Maintenance and field testing procedures for the Caleffi 553 AutoFill fill valve and 573 series back flow preventer can be found in instruction sheets 38467 and 38517, respectively, and
packed with these components unassembled in the box containing the NA573022 water
are treatment filling unit. These instruction sheets are also available at www.caleffi.com.
Replacement of filter housing assembly To prevent costly repairs or possible water damage, it is strongly recommended to replace every 5 years the clear plastic filter housing assembly, code NA573100. Be sure to date the newly installed, or replaced, housing for future reference and indicate the next replacement date.

White plastic wrench, included in package, is required to remove filter housing to replace spent color changing demineralization filter. Please do not dispose and keep in handy location for future use.
Note: The replacement water treatment filling unit is not designed for initial filling. Caleffi’s HYDROFILL™ water treatment filling unit, code NA5709 series, is recommended for that purpose.
The capacity depends on various factors including the temperature of the water, the chemical composition of the water and pressure. For an exact determination is a water analysis of the raw water. The values specified here are always related to the optimal case and are not binding.
