This manual describes standard installation and operation of the VELCON series separators.
This manual provides instructions for the installation and operation of Parker Velcon filter/separator vessels. It details the general description of the system, including the function of first-stage coalescer cartridges and second-stage separator cartridges designed to remove solid contaminants and water from products like fuel. The document emphasizes safety warnings, such as avoiding pressure testing with air, and outlines the importance of proper drainage to prevent environmental issues.
The vessel must be pressurized only with the liquid it is intended to be used for, never with air.
The differential pressure should be between 1 and 10 psi depending on the purchase specification.
Use a special adapter to tighten the cartridges to 30 ft-lbs torque.
