Installation and Operation Guide
Insurice PF Filter Systems
Description
Everpure Insurice PF Series Water Filter Systems (Figures 1-3) are identical to standard Insurice systems except that the PF Series systems include a 20" sediment prefilter housing pre-installed and assembled onto the inlet header/manifold assembly. Insurice PF systems are designed for use in installations with dirtier, cloudier source water and incorporate the same Everpure Insurice 1⁄2 micron Quick-Change precoat filter cartridges (I2000, I20002, I4000 & I40002) which remove potentially harmful particulates and chlorine taste and odor from the water while introducing an advanced scale inhibitor. – As tested by Everpure
The replaceable prefilter cartridge element removes larger dirt and rust particles and extends the life of the sub-micron carbon filters. Thus, ice quality and ice machine performance are improved while machine downtime, maintenance and energy costs are substantially reduced.

Selecting A Mounting Location
1.Give consideration to the weight of the unit when operating (filled with water). Operating weights of the Insurice PF Systems are:
•Single System - 19 lbs. (8.62 kg.)
•Twin System - 35 lbs. (15.9 kg)
•Triple System - 45 lbs. (20.4 kg)
2.The location should allow for:
•Minimum clearance of 21⁄2" under the cartridge(s) so it can be lowered for removal and replacement.
•Adequate space for “in” and “out” water line connections.
•Be near a drain for flushing.

Installation
1.Use the predrilled mounting holes in the manifold bracket as guides. Mark and drill anchor holes. Mount securely. See Figures 4-6.
2.Shut off power to ice machine.
3.Connect outlet port of Insurice PF system to equipment served. Always use a NSF approved pipe dope or Teflon tape at all connections. Use a backup wrench on all fittings while connecting to avoid excessive stress on the system components.
4.Connect minimum 1/2" (3/4" preferred) water line to inlet side of Insurice PF system prefilter. Do not turn on the supply water yet.
5Connect tubing to flushing valve and run to drain.
Note: Some municipal plumbing codes and good sanitary practices require an air gap at the drain termination point.
6.Remove the wrapping from the prefilter cartridge and insert it into the clear prefilter bowl, aligning the hole in the bottom of the cartridge over the raised stub in the bottom of the bowl.
7.Check to see that the O-ring is in place at the top of the prefilter bowl and that it is lubricated with food grade silicone lubricant. Install the bowl by aligning the hole in the top of the cartridge with the stub extending down from the housing head and threading the bowl onto the head. Hand tighten snugly. Do not over-tighten the bowl.
8.Remove the wrapping from the Insurice PF filter cartridge(s).
9.Install the Insurice PF cartridge(s) into the Insurice PF system head(s) following directions on the cartridge label or as shown in the Cartridge Change illustrations.
10.Turn on water supply and flush the cartridge(s) by running water through at full force for five minutes. This will set the filtering media and purge air and fines, insuring maximum filter life.
11.After flushing, close the flushing valve and turn on power to equipment. See illustrations.

annually. |

The system outlet pressure gauge provides a quick, simple means of determining when the |
|
Insurice PF filter cartridge(s) should be checked. The gauge can be used to monitor dynamic |
|
(flowing) pressure and static (line) pressure. The filter cartridges should be changed when the |
|
gauge needle is in the red area while the system is in operation. In multiple cartridge systems, |
|
all filter cartridges should be changed at the same time. |
