NOTE
• The filter inlet/outlet and flushing oil outlet are indicated by the inscriptions
(Ein/In), (Aus/Out) and (Spülölaustritt/Flushing oil).
• The direction of flow is also shown in the technical data sheet which is
included in the appendix of these operating instructions.
NOTE
BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH recommends installing shut-off valves in the
piping in front and in back of the filter.
Establish the connection between the flushing oil outlet and piping.
Welded joints must be made in line with the valid regulations.
Use the appropriate seal.
The pipe may need to be provided with additional supports, depending on the
installation conditions. When installing the piping, the filter housing must not
be twisted.
Select a pipe cross section which is at least equal in size to the pipe cross
section shown in the technical data sheet. A cross section which is too small
may cause backpressure. The pipe must also be laid with an inclination and
bled.
The filter heating is used during the filtering process to cover heat loss in the filter
and before starting up the plant in order to heat up the medium in the filter. The
filter can be heated with water vapour, hot water or thermal oil.
DANGER!
Risk of accidents from expelled hot medium
Too much pressure in the heating system can cause hot medium to be expelled
and lead to damage to the filter and accidents.
• Adhere to the maximum permitted operating temperature and operating
pressure for the filter heater.
Connect the medium-carrying pipes to the filter heating on the plant side.
Welded joints must be made in line with the valid regulations.
Use the appropriate seal.
The pipes may need to be provided with additional supports, depending on
the installation conditions. When installing the piping, the filter housing must
not be twisted.

Connect the plant's compressed air supply line to the one-way restrictor
valve on the ball valve.
DANGER!
Risk of accidents from electric shock
When connecting to the power supply, the supply voltage can cause accidents
from electric shock.
• All the electrical connections on the filter must be made by a qualified
electrician and in line with the rules of electrical engineering.
Controller
NOTE
If you are using a BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH controller, you will find more
detailed information in the documentation for the controller.
If you are using your own controller or another manufacturer's controller, the
respective documentation must be followed.
NOTE
BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH differential pressure indicators have potential-
free contacts.
CAUTION!
Risk of malfunction or damage to the filter or plant
Failure to react to the alarms can lead to malfunctions or damage to the filter or
the plant.
• Connect the differential pressure monitoring system so that the alarms are
issued.
• It is imperative to react to any active alarms and remedy the cause
immediately.
CAUTION!
Risk of malfunction or damage to the filter or plant
Failure to react to the alarms can lead to malfunctions or damage to the filter or
the plant.
• Connect the differential pressure monitoring system so that the alarms are
issued.
• It is imperative to react to any active alarms and remedy the cause
immediately.
All the pipe connections are on the filter housing, which consists of a lower
section of housing and housing. The flushing valve is installed on the lower
section of housing. The filter heating is integrated into the lower section of
housing.
The filter insert with the individual filter chambers is arranged in the middle of the
housing. The housing is sealed by a cover. The pneumatic pivoting actuator is
fitted to it with a spacer. The housing is vented by an automatic vent.
7.1.2 Controller
NOTE
If you are using a BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH controller, you will find more
detailed information in the documentation for the controller.
If you are using your own controller or another manufacturer's controller, the
respective documentation must be followed.
NOTE
• You will find more detailed information on the differential pressure monitoring
system in the appendix of these operating instructions or in the
manufacturer's documentation.
• The differential pressure can also be displayed optically on the differential
pressure monitoring system.
• The control line for the differential pressure monitoring system is fitted with
shut-off valves (e.g. ball valves).
NOTE
In combination with a bypass filter a further differential pressure monitoring
system is positioned on the plug valve circuit.
5 3
1 Pressure controller
2 Safety valve
3 Air tank
4 Solenoid valve
5 Pressure gauge
The compressed air in the air tank is expelled abruptly whilst the valve tappet
performs its opening movement. This accelerates the clean medium in the filter
candle and forces it through the filter candle at high speed in the opposite
direction to the direction of flow. The pressure level in the air tank can be read
from the pressure gauge and set using a pressure controller. The air tank is
equipped with a safety valve to prevent the air tank from being damaged by
excessive positive pressure.
If the pressure gradient between the dirty side and the clean side reaches a set
value due to the growing layer of dirt on the filter candle, the automatic filter
chamber regeneration is triggered. The pivoting actuator turns the filter insert so
that the nearest filter chamber is shut off and the stand-by filter chamber is
enabled. Once the filter chamber being cleaned has reached the cleaning
position, a limit switch and a cam disc stop the rotational movement. The pivoting
actuator is actuated by a solenoid valve.
The pivoting actuator is connected to the drive shaft by a freewheel (slip clutch).
The pneumatically actuated flushing valve opens and closes the flushing oil line
at the start and end of the backflushing stage respectively. The flushing valve is
actuated by a solenoid valve. Whilst the valve tappet performs its opening and
closing movement the supply of compressed air is opened and closed by the
valve tappet with a delay to backflush the soiled filter candle.

CAUTION!
Risk of damage to the filter from improper flushing
Flushing an only partially filled filter causes increased strain on the filter
elements.
• Never perform backflushing due to installation or control circumstances in an
only partially filled filter. A completely drained filter can be flushed for test
purposes without any restrictions.

The switch-over is performed manually using the attachable lever. The sign on
the cover indicates the direction of flow and thus shows which filter is in operation
and whether the pressure compensation valve is open or closed. The
construction of the circuit prevents both filters from being shut down at the same
time.
CAUTION!
Risk of damage to the filter if the plug valve switch-over circuit is
positioned incorrectly
With a closed pressure compensation valve, the medium may be subject to heat
expansion and cause an increased build-up of pressure in the filter chamber
which is shut off.
• The pressure compensation valve must always remain open during
operation.
• The pressure compensation valve must only be closed when cleaning the
automatic filter or bypass filter.
The housing cover safety device has the task of preventing pressurised medium
from being expelled uncontrollably in case of incorrect operation. The cover
sheet covers a minimum number of cover screws so that the cover cannot be
removed without opening the vent to bleed the system.
The filter chamber is relieved via the vent. When the filter chamber is shut off, the
operating pressure is immediately relieved and hardly any medium is expelled.
Otherwise, close the vent immediately and the expulsion of medium is limited.
DANGER!
Risk of accidents from expelled medium
Hot medium may be expelled when opening the vent.
• Proceed with extreme caution.
• Wear the appropriate safety equipment and clothing.
DISPOSAL
Leaks must be caught immediately. Make sure that expelled medium is disposed
of properly and in an environmentally friendly manner.

Fig. 7-5 Construction of the filter insert with filter candles
Filter inserts with filter candles are used for filtration. The flow runs from the
outside to the inside into the individual filter candles.
Particles of dirt in the flow are thus filtered off by the filter candles. The cleaned
medium exits from the bottom of the filter candles and is fed back into the plant.
The filter insert comprises several filter candles arranged in parallel. The filter
candles all have the same dimensions; they are interchangeable and can also be
removed separately. They are screwed into the sieve basket.
The type of filter candles used depends on the medium being filtered.
The dirty side is sealed off from the clean side by a seal on the sieve basket. The
sieve cover disc seals the sieve basket at the top.
A bearing mounted bushing serves as the bottom pivot point for the sieve basket.

Fig. 7-6 Construction of star-pleated filter element
1 Sieve ring
2 Seal
3 Filter material
4 Perforated sheet
Star-pleated filter elements are used for filtration. The direction of flow through
the star pleated-filter element is from the outside to the inside.
Particles of dirt in the flow are thus filtered off by the star-pleated filter element.
The cleaned medium then exits from the bottom of the star-pleated filter element
and is fed back into the plant.
The bypass filter is fitted with a star-pleated filter element.
Seals which are inserted into the sieve rings, seal off the dirty side from the clean
side.
The star-pleated filter element is fastened in place by the housing and the cover.
NOTE
If you are using a BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH controller, you will find more
detailed information in the documentation for the controller.
If you are using your own controller or another manufacturer's controller, the
respective documentation must be followed.
CAUTION!
Risk of damage to the filter if operated without compressed air supply
If the controller is switched on and the filter is commissioned without compressed
air supply, the solenoid valves may become damaged.
• Always open the filter's ball valve first when commissioning in order to ensure
that compressed air is supplied.
DISPOSAL
Leaks must be caught immediately. Make sure that expelled medium is disposed
of properly and in an environmentally friendly manner.
Open the vent on the top of the housing of the bypass filter. The bypass filter
is filled via the open pressure compensation valve.
Close the vent as soon as medium is expelled from a vent without any
bubbles.
Carry out backflushing once more manually using the controller.
NOTE
After backflushing is complete, the next backflushing cycle (manual or triggered
by the differential pressure monitoring system) can only be started with a time
delay. This time delay is the time set on the time relay or the preset time on the
controller. It is needed to ensure that the cleaned filter chamber can be filled.
DISPOSAL
Leaks must be caught immediately. Make sure that expelled medium is disposed
of properly and in an environmentally friendly manner.
After each time you commission the filter, check the filter for leaks and
eliminate them as necessary.
CAUTION!
Insufficient filtration may cause damage to downstream components
If the compressed air supply is interrupted during operation, the backflushing
device will fail. The increasing soiling in the filter elements causes a reduction in
the filtering performance. This can cause damage to the downstream
components.
• Do not interrupt the compressed air supply during operation.
Allow the filter to operate for 24 hours with differential pressure and record
the number of flushes from the flushing cycle counter or the controller. In
order to allow the filter to operate for 24 hours with differential pressure, you
have to deactivate the intervals for forced flushing on the controller.
Calculate the average of all flushing intervals.
Reset the flushing interval time (which should be 30 % shorter) on the
controller.
NOTE
When using the filter in watery media, it is imperative to adhere to the following:
• Do not allow the filter to run to empty after switching off the supply pump. Dirt
may otherwise be allowed to harden.
• If the above condition cannot be met, set the controller so that backflushing
is triggered every 2 hours even if the supply pump is switched off.
NOTE
When removing the filter and taking it out of service for longer periods, pay
attention to the following points:
• The filter must be completely emptied.
• Disconnect all connections from the filter.
• The filter must be thoroughly cleaned.
• The filter must be sealed by applying an appropriate anticorrosive, if
necessary.
• The connection flange openings must be sealed with plastic (or similar)
dummy plugs.
7.7.3 Disposal
DISPOSAL
When the filter or individual components and consumables are finally disposed
of, make sure that they are disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
NOTE
BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH recommends BOLL CLEAN 2000 cleaning
agent. For more detailed information, see the appendix of these operating
instructions.
You can tell that the filter elements are becoming increasingly blocked because
the flushing intervals become shorter and shorter.
The number of backflushing cycles performed is recorded by the controller.
CAUTION!
Risk of damage to the filter and the plant from damaged filter elements
If the flushing intervals suddenly become longer, this may indicate that the filter
elements are damaged.
• In such an event, check all filter elements for damage immediately. Replace
any damaged filter elements as necessary.
NOTE
The filter elements are subject to wear from two-way strain. It is therefore
recommendable to keep a complete set of filter elements in stock.
NOTE
If you are using a BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH controller, you will find more
detailed information in the documentation for the controller.
If you are using your own controller or another manufacturer's controller, the
respective documentation must be followed.
Set the key on the plug valve circuit to the "Bypass filter in operation,
pressure compensation valve to automatic filter closed" position. The bypass
filter is thus in operation. The closed pressure compensation valve prevents
any medium from flowing into the automatic filter.
CAUTION!
Risk of accidents from hot components
Hot surfaces can cause serious injuries if touched.
• Take the filter heating out of operation and allow the filter to cool down.
• Wear the appropriate protective clothing.
Trigger manual backflushing with the controller for each filter chamber apart
from one.
Afterwards, close the ball valve for the filter's compressed air supply.
Then, carry out manual backflushing for the filter chamber which has not yet
been flushed.
Switch off the controller.
Check the pressure gauge to establish whether the air tank is depressurised.
The filter is drained and depressurised.
Remove the filter insert from the housing by pulling it vertically upwards by
the clamp.
Allow the filter insert to drip dry in a suitable container.
CAUTION!
Risk of damage to the filter insert from improper cleaning
If the filter insert is cleaned or handled improperly, the filter insert may become
damaged. Observe the following safety instructions:
• Proceed with extreme caution when performing all cleaning work.
• The soaking time in the "BOLL CLEAN 2000" cleaning agent must not
exceed 24 hours.
• The cleaning temperature, when using "BOLL CLEAN 2000" must not
exceed 60 °C.
• When cleaning using a high-pressure cleaner, the pressure must not exceed
a maximum of 60 bar. When cleaning using a high-pressure cleaner, keep a
sufficient distance (at least 20 cm) from the surface of the filter material to
prevent damage.
• Particles of dirt must not be allowed to enter the clean side of the filter
element.
• Do not place the filter elements on top of each other as you may otherwise
cause damage.
Place the filter insert in a container with cleaning agent, with the opening of
the filter elements facing downwards. This way, particles detaching from the
filter elements can sink to the bottom.
Remove loose particles which float on the top of the cleaning agent during
the soaking stage.
After soaking, remove the filter insert from the container and place it on a
suitable surface (e.g. perforated plate) with openings of the filter elements
facing downwards. Allow the cleaning agent to drip dry.
Turn the filter insert around and place it down with the openings facing
upwards.
Blow out the filter elements with compressed air from the inside to the
outside.
NOTE
The filter insert should be flushed again in a separate container with fresh
cleaning agent. This cleaning agent can them by used to soak a filter insert.
Then dip the filter insert in the container with fresh cleaning agent again, with
the openings of the filter elements facing downwards. Rinse the filter insert
through again by turning it and moving it up and down in the cleaning agent.
Allow the filter insert to drip dry again.
Blow out the filter elements with compressed air from the inside to the
outside.
NOTE
Sufficient cleaning results (approximately 60 %) have been achieved using the
described manual cleaning process for filter elements in similar applications.
In our experience, a cleaning effect of almost 100 % can only be achieved
manually by using the type 5.04 filter element cleaning unit with BOLL CLEAN
2000.
In case of heavier soiling, you can clean using the high-pressure cleaner
procedure mentioned above.
In case the filter elements are heavily soiled (lacquer contamination, incrustation,
tar residue, fibres, chippings), the individual filter elements will have to be
removed and cleaned.
NOTE
BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH recommend the use of the BOLL & KIRCH
cleaning unit with rotating nozzle and flat-jet nozzle for cleaning purposes.
If you do not have a filter element cleaning unit available, proceed as follows:
Place the filter insert in a container with cleaning agent, with the opening of
the filter elements facing upwards.
NOTE
BOLL & KIRCH Filterbau GmbH recommends BOLL CLEAN 2000 cleaning
agent. For more detailed information, see the appendix of these operating
instructions.
Remove the filter insert from the cleaning agent after the soaking stage.
Allow the filter insert to drip dry with the openings pointing downwards.
Unscrew and remove the screws from the sieve cover disc.
Lift the sieve cover disc off the sieve basket.
Unscrew and remove the filter elements from the sieve basket using the
wrench included in the scope of delivery.
Then spray the filter elements through using the high-pressure cleaner with
suitable cleaning agent. First clean from the inside to the outside, then from
the outside to the inside. Repeat the process several times as necessary.
Finally, spray the filter elements from the inside to the out.
Carefully rinse out the filter elements in fresh cleaning agent and allow the
filter elements to drip dry.
Blow out the filter elements with compressed air from the inside to the
outside.
Re-assembly is performed by carrying out the steps for disassembly in
reverse order.
Clean any soiling which has collected on the inside of the filter.
