The Model SGM-250P backwashes based upon pressure differential across the filter media. Additionally, an adjustable timer allows back washing for up to five minutes. The factory setting is four minutes.

The pressure differential switch is adjustable for pressure drop and dead band. Backwash will start when the pressure differential reaches set point plus the dead band. For example, if the pressure differential is set for 6 psi, the dead band for 4 psi, and the backwash timer for 4 minutes, then the backwash cycle will start at 10 psi for a duration of four minutes.

Replacing Sand and Gravel

Replace the sand and gravel every two years, when contaminated, or when sand has carried over from excessive water flow.

There are three layers of filter media. First, starting from the bottom, place 200 lbs. of ½” x ¼” round gravel. Second, place 300 lbs. of ¼” x 1/8” round gravel and third, the top final layer, place 700 pounds of #20 filter sand.

Anode Replacement

On top of the filter housing is a sacrificial anode made of magnesium. Inspect and replace when it has depleted.

5-2 Centri-Separator System

The CSM-150 and CSM-400 require a 120/1/60-power source and are provided with a standard plug. The separators are designed to operate to a prescribed flow range for maximum solid removal. The CSM-150 operates at a flow rate of 10 to 20 gpm and the CSM-400 operates at 45 to 70 gpm. Liquid enters the upper portion of the separator housing tangentially and the solids are drawn through internal slots to the bottom chamber. An electrically operated ball valve automatically back flushes the solids from the separator. Periodically inspect and ensure that the purge line is clear to flow freely.
