Cartridge Pool Filters - CL Series FilterSection 2. General Information2.1 IntroductionThis manual contains information for the proper installationand operation of the Jandy ® CL Series CartridgeFilters. Procedures in this manual must be followed exactly.To obtain additional copies of this manual contactus at 707.776.8200 ext. 237. For address informationsee back cover.2.2 DescriptionCartridge filters do not require sand or diatomaceousearth as the filter medium. Instead, the filter containsfilter elements which are easily removed for cleaning orreplacement.Dirty water flows into the filter tank through the waterline connected to the lower bulkhead (inlet) on thebottom half of the tank body. It is directed through thefilter cartridge inside of the filter. The debris is collectedin the filter and the clean water flows out of the filterthrough the upper bulkhead (outlet) on the bottom halfof the tank body. Clean water is returned through thepiping system to the pool.As debris collects in the filter, the pressure will riseand water flow to the pool will diminish. The filter willeventually become so plugged with debris that it will benecessary to remove the filter cartridges and clean themwith soap and water.NOTE A fi lter removes dirt and other suspended particlesbut does not sanitize the pool. Pool water must besanitized and chemically balanced for clear water.The fi ltration system should be designed to meetlocal health codes. At a minimum, the system shouldturnover the total volume of water in your pool two tofour times in a 24 hour period.Page 55. We recommend the use of barrel unionsto connect each component of the waterconditioning system to ease in future servicing.Barell unions are provided with all Jandy filters.2.4 Specifications and DimensionsSee Table 1 and Figure 1.Table 1.

Never subject the fi lter to pressure exceeding 50psi, even when conducting hydrostatic pressure tests.Pressures above 50 psi can cause the lid to be blownoff.6. When performing hydrostatic pressure tests orwhen testing for external leaks of the completedfiltration and plumbing system, ensure thatthe maximum pressure the filtration system issubjected to does not exceed the maximumworking pressure of any of the componentswithin the system.2.3 General Requirements1. For best overall performance place the system asclose to the pool as possible.2. The filter should be located on a level concreteslab so that the orientation of the valve outlets andthe pressure gauge are convenient and accessiblefor the installation and operation of the unit.3. Protect the filter from the weather.4. If fitting a chlorinator and/or any other device intothe filtration plumbing circuit, great care must bexercised to ensure that the appliance is installed inaccordance with the Manufacturer’s Instructionsand any standards that may exist.Figure 1.OUT LETINLET10 ½ in18½in"A"Dimensions, Jandy CL Series CartridgeFilters
