Operation and Maintenance
Haskris LX-Series, R-Series, WW-Series, OPC-Series
Section 3: Strainers
• Some units have a nylon suction strainer in the tank to prevent debris from damaging
the pump. In LX-Series units, the strainer is threaded into a tting on the inside of the
tank at the bottom.
• Check the strainer regularly for debris or biological growth.
• If the mesh feels slippery or “slimy”, this indicates biological growth. Flush the system
according to the provided instructions.
• Replace the strainer whenever there is a signicant accumulation of debris or biological
growth.
• Replacement strainers are available from Haskris online at shop.haskris.com or over
the phone +1-847-956-6420.
• A dirty strainer can cause pump cavitation indicated by rapid pressure uctuations.
Failures due to cavitation are not covered under warranty.
• Some systems have brass wye strainers in the piping. These have a removable screen
that can be cleaned.
Section 4: Filters
• Some units include a supply line particle lter to capture debris.
• Record the running uid pressure at the completion of startup when the lter is clean.
• The running pressure can be read by viewing the uid pressure gauge near the pump or by
reading the controller display.
• Replace the lter when the pressure increases 5 psi to 6 psi (0.3 bar to 0.4 bar) above the
startup running uid pressure.
• Replacement lters are available from Haskris online at shop.haskris.com or over the phone
+1-847-956-6420.
Section 5: Drain Line
• Units include a drain hose connected to the bottom of the tank.
• Some units also include a plastic valve and hose barb connection.
