5. spring on the discs stack generating its own decompression due to the piston displacement raising BACKFLUSHING STAGE The release of the discs makes it possible for them to spin freely due to its tangential projection of the water coming from the feeder bars which at the same time are used as structural support for the stack of discs The distribution of the holes in the bars project water under pressure which tangentially flows into the discs generating rotation and vibration which completes elimination of the retained solids through the backflushing valve Solids are discharged to the outside by the drainage manifold The end of the backflushing coincides with the closure of the drainage outlet and the opening of the inlet manifold on the last station that forms the filtration equipment The filtration systems initial conditions are re established and makes available all of the filters to carry out the filtration function 5 PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION 5 1 Assembly Part Identification 4 RAIN BIRD HDF SERIES DISC FILTER o INLET MANIFOLD GROOVED CONNECTION 3 OUTLET MANIFOLD GROOVED CONNECTION DRAINAGE MANIFOLD o SWAYHYDRAULIG VALVE s z vietauic counen ren 10 bar 145 psi AUXILIARY FILTER 2 KIT FILTER 2 KIT 10 AIR RELEASE VALVE TRIPPLE EFFECT 2 CONTROL UNIT 5 2 Product Labeling The equipment
