Assembly For Perforated Elements, Perfoated Elements with Mesh Overlay, and Wedgewire Elements 1. If using a mesh overlay on a perforated element, slide the overlay over the top until it is approximately centered on the element. 2. Install a sanitary gasket over the end of the strainer element and slide the strainer element into the housing. 3. Secure with a sanitary tri-clamp. For Perforated Elements with Filter Tube 1. NOTE: Perforated elements for use with filter tubes require a special element with a groove for the o-ring near the tri-clamp cap. Ensure you have this element before using a filter tube. 2. Slide the filter tube over the perforated element until the end reaches the inside of the element’s cap area. 3. Install the o-ring over the filter tube and secure it in the o-ring groove so that it holds the filter tube in place (See Figure 5: Filter Tube Element Installed on Perforated Element ). 4. Install a sanitary gasket over the end of the strainer element and slide the strainer element carefully into the housing. 5. Secure with a sanitary tri-clamp.
