IVAR.SFGAR manual self-cleaning filter with pressure reducing valve – 1" M, 40 µm stainless cartridge – SALE
Code: IVAFB933ARRelated products
Product detailed description
The IVAR.SFGAR self-cleaning filter, code IVAFB933AR, is installed on the water inlet after the water meter. It traps sand, rust, sediment and floating particles, protecting the pipework downstream as well as connected appliances – water heaters, wall-hung gas water heaters, washing machines, showers or water treatment units. The AISI 316L stainless steel cartridge has a porosity of 40 µm, and the transparent PP bowl shows how clogged it is. The water quality must correspond to that of the public mains supply.
Flushing without dismantling
To clean, open the ball valve at the bottom of the filter and turn the cleaning control 3 to 4 turns. Scrapers then clean the cartridge and the inner wall of the bowl, and the dirt flows through a hose to the drain. Flushing is recommended at least once a month, three times in a row for 30 seconds. A dial with a numbered scale at the top of the filter is used to set the month of the next cleaning.
Integrated pressure reducing valve
The valve maintains a reduced, stable pressure downstream of the filter, protecting pipes and appliances against overpressure and water hammer. The outlet pressure is adjusted with a control element locked by a screw and read on the pressure gauge; it must always remain lower than the inlet pressure.
Location and package contents
The filter belongs in a dry indoor room where the temperature does not drop below +5 °C even in winter, away from heat sources, fuels, chemicals and sunlight. When fitting, follow the flow direction arrow on the filter head and connect the outlet to the drain. Installation and maintenance should be carried out by a qualified person. The package includes a mounting wrench, wall bracket, drain connector and drain hose. The replacement stainless cartridge has code IVAFB933R78, the cleaning assembly with scrapers IVAFB933R76.
