Product Description
Brine Seal Replacement
Hydranautics provides brine seals with all standard eight-inch and four-inch elements. Elements are shipped with a single brine seal installed on the seal carrier/anti-telescoping device (ATD) located on the feed end of the element. Prior to installation of new elements, the brine seals should be inspected to verify that they are properly seated. The brine seal should be fully nested into the ATD groove with the u-cup facing the feed end of the element.
Brine seals should be replaced if:
Nicks, dents or cracks can be seen or felt on the brine seal
Elements do not fit properly into the pressure vessels during loading
Debris cannot be removed from the brine seal, thus preventing proper sealing
To replace brine seal:
Remove the existing brine seal using an o-ring extraction tool (or similar tool) taking care not to damage the sealing surface on the ATD
Install the new brine seal with the u-cup facing the feed end of the element (see picture)
