SAFECO GFC / GFCX SERIESNATURAL GAS FILTERS
1. Inspect gasket facing on Inlet and Outlet flanges, if so equipped.
2. Install the filter in the pipeline using standard pipeline assembly methods.
3. Bring the unit pressure up slowly.
4. Monitor the pressure drop.

INSTALLATION, OPERATION, AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

f.

i.j.
SAFECO Provides a shipping blind for every flange, but a precautionary check of all gasket facings is recommended. Also, it may be necessary to remove the paint from the machined facings for good sealing.
Be certain to observe the proper flow direction as indicated on the filter housing.
Inspect for leaks and loose connections. If any problems are detected, depressurize the unit before beginning any repairs.
After placing the unit in service, the differential pressure should be routinely checked. Blocked or dirty elements should be changed immediately. Pleated media cartridges should never be subjected to a differential pressure greater than 15 psid. For maximum reliability, SAFECO recommends that cartridge replacement should be scheduled as early as possible after an observed pressure drop greater than 10 psid.
Isolate and depressurize the unit.Unbolt and remove the top cover from the unit, being careful to avoid damage to the O-ring groove and facing.Remove the old cartridge, retaining the wing nut and both washers.Clean the filter body, if required.Carefully insert the new cartridge. SAFECO does not recommend the re-use of filter cartridges, even if they appear clean. The bottom seal may have taken a "set" and may not seal when re-installed. Be certain to place the bottom of the cartridge around the centering cone at the bottom of the housing. Failure to center the cartridge will destroy the cartridge seal and allow blow-by. Visually verify proper centering before replacing the wing nut and washers. Replace the washers and wing nut. The rubber washer goes on first. The wing nut should be hand-tightened only.Carefully inspect the O-ring and all of the cap screws. Replace as necessary. Be certain to re-lubricate the O-ring with O-ring lube.Replace the top cover, and tighten the cap screws in a four bolt pattern.Restore unit to service as specified above.

DP KITS ON SAFECONATURAL GAS FILTERS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Isolate and de-pressurize the unit.
2. Locate the DP Taps.
3. Remove the plugs from the DP Taps.
4. Use Pipe Dope or Thread Tape.
5. Install the shut-off valves in the DP Taps.
6. Install the DP Gauge.
7. Install the Manometer Tube.
8. Restore the Unit to Pressure Slowly.
The DP Kit is part of the pressure boundary, as are the plugs supplied in the Differential Pressure Connections.
Most units are equipped with DP Taps installed on the front of the housing and nozzle. The high-side DP tap is usually on the front of the housing, but may be on the front of the inlet or on top of the inlet. Some units, especially the very small ones, may not be equipped with a high-side DP tap. If no high-side DP Tap is provided, any compatible tap upstream of the unit may be used. Because a DP Gauge does not require any flow, a hot-tap may be used. Remember to account for any additional differential pressure when analyzing the readings from the DP Gauge. The low-side DP tap is normally located on the front of the outlet nozzle, but may be located on the top of the outlet nozzle. Some units, especially those provided with threaded or socket welding nozzles, may not have a low-side DP tap installed on the filter housing. If there is no low-side DP tap present, pressure can be obtained from any tap downstream of the unit. Remember to account for any additional differen-tial pressure when analyzing the readings from the DP Gauge.
Most units are equipped with 1/4" NPT DP Taps. If the DP Taps are 1/2" NPT, bushings will be required. If bushings are required, install the bushings before continuing to the next step.
All threaded connections should be made using either pipe dope or thread tape. Be certain to use a product approved for use with natural gas. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions in the use of thread sealing compounds and tape.
The shut-off valve should always be connected directly to the DP Tap, except that a reducing bushing may be required, or, in the case of some small filters, a short 1/4" pipe nipple and coupling may be required to elevate the low-side DP Tap enough to permit the installation of the shut-off valve.
Loosely install the 1/4" NPT-M x 1/4" Compression Elbow in the "Low" side connection on the back of the DP Gauge. Loosely install the 1/4" x Close Pipe Nipple in the "High" side. Then install the pipe nipple into the shut-off valve on the high-side DP tap. Use a wrench to tighten the gauge, gripping only the aluminum block.
Loosely install the other NPT x Compression Elbow into the Low-Side Shut-off valve. Usually, two bends will be required. Only tighten the tubing elbows after confirming the proper fit of the tube. The compression fittings should be the last components tightened.
Check for leaks. Isolate and de-pressurize the unit before beginning any repairs.
