SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
Vulcan water filters are produced with quality workmanship and material. Proper installation,
usage and maintenance of your water filter will result in many years of satisfactory performance.
It is suggested that you thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the
instructions provided.
The water filtration system conforms to ANSI/NSF Standard 53 and ANSI/NSF Standard 42 for
the specific performance claims as verified and substantiated by test data.
Filter capacity will vary according to flow rate, influent water pressure and local water conditions.
Service life for the filter cartridge for model SPS600V is 7,500 gallons (
SPS620V, the service life for the filter cartridge is 15,000 gallons (
replacement is recommended at least every 6 months to maintain equipment warranty. Filter
cartridge replacement is also recommended if water pressure goes below 20 psig (
28,390 liters); for model
56,780 liters). Filter cartridge
138 kPa).
INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
The water filter was inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company assumes
full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment.
IMPORTANT: Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the water
filter is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days
of delivery.
TEST THE WATER AND RETURN THE RESPONSE CARD
Test the incoming unfiltered water supply with the enclosed 4-IN-1 City Water Check test strip by
carefully following the instructions on the package. Record the results on the enclosed Filter
Registration Card. Be sure and use the Vulcan-Hart Equipment model and serial number. Do
not use the filter system model and serial number. Fill the registration card out completely and
return the information to Vulcan in one of the following three ways: Mail the postage-paid selfaddressed card to Vulcan, FAX the completed card per instructions on the cord or contact Vulcan
on-line at
www.vulcanhart.com
, select service tab and answer all the necessary questions.
NOTE: Filter registration is required at time of installation to begin warranty coverage on the
equipment being installed with the filter.
LOCATION
The water filter should be mounted on a sturdy support structure or wall and must be level. Do
not mount the filter system directly on the steamer.
LEVELING
Use a carpenter's level to level the top of the water filter's mounting head.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The model SPS600V and SPS620V water filters are designed to be
installed in the cold water line only. Installation of the water filter in
a hot water line can seriously damage the filter housing. The filter
must be in contact with water at all times after installation. Installation
must comply with any existing state or local plumbing codes.
WATER PARAMETERS
pH 6 to 9
Alkalinity 0 to 250 ppm
Chlorine 0 to 4 ppm
Hardness 0 to 300 ppm
Refer to the Water Parameters table, right, for recommended water quality limitations. If your
local water supply does not meet the recommendations in the Water Parameters table, Vulcan
may request that a water sample be returned for laboratory testing. After evaluation of the water
test, other specific recommendations may be made for additional filtration or water treatment to
make the local water supply meet the acceptable limits for use in steam generator equipment.
The recommended incoming flow rate for SPS600V is 2 gallons per minute
The recommended incoming flow rate for SPS620V is 4 gallons per minute (
(7.6 liters per minute).
15.1 liters per minute).
The SPS600V and SPS620V water filters must be protected against freezing. Failure to do so
could result in breakage of the filter housing and water leakage.
Minimum operating temperature: 45°F (
Minimum operating pressure: 20 psig (
Minimum line pressure: 40 psig (
276 kPa). Maximum line pressure: 125 psig (862 kPa).
If the filter pressure gauge is over 60 psig (
to a maximum of 60 psig (
414 kPa). Install a water pressure reducing regulator (part number
7°C). Maximum operating temperature: 100°F (38°C).
138 kPa). Maximum operating pressure: 125 psig (862 kPa).
414 kPa), you must reduce the pressure to the boiler
854322 or equivalent) after the filter, move the pressure gauge downstream of the regulator and
set the pressure at 60 psig (
414 kPa).
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the filter.
PLUMBING CONNECTIONS
