WTC 600 LP / MP MAINTENANCE
Service Handbook 08.2004
4.4.6 Flushing the pre-filter
The WTC 600 LP/MP pre-filter must be flushed if the differential pressure of the pre-filter
immediately after back-washing is more than 0.5 bar.
Before flushing the filter, check the manometer for correct display values and
exchange if necessary!
Pre-filter blockages are caused above all by changed water constituents.
A renewed water analysis must be carried out in order to remove the cause of
blockages. Notify sales department! Additional treatment stages possibly required!
