SATA 206284 Timer Starter Set with Holder, Use With: Sinter Filter

In order to maintain the efficiency of the filter, the unit must be regularly maintained, thus avoiding coating flaws and other quality issues and eventually expensive rework. To remind users to exchange saturated filter elements regularly, from now on all SATA® filter regulator units will be supplied with a set of SATA® filter timers. Using the SATA® filter timer is extremely easy - When a new filter regulator unit is installed, each filter timer must be activated by pressing the button to "start" the servicing interval of the respective filter stage. Over time, the display window will gradually turn to red, indicating the passing of time and serving as a guide to the measure of filter saturation. Whenever a window has completely changed to red, the concerned filter cartridge needs to be replaced. In line with the two different recommended replacement intervals of approx. Three (activated charcoal) or 6 months (fine and sintered filter) respectively, there will be two filter timer versions available. Additionally, the replacement filter cartridges will be also supplied with SATA® filter timers which have to be inserted in the self-adhesive cages on the filter canisters and activated once maintenance is completed.
