A water softener contains resin beads which hold electrically charged ions. When hard water passes through the softener, calcium and magnesium ions are attracted to the charged resin beads. It's the resulting re- moval of calcium and magnesium ions that produces soft water.

Page 10: About The System
About The System Operation During A Power Failure In the event of a power failure, the valve will keep track of the time and day for 48 hours. The programmed settings are stored in a non-volatile memory and will not be lost during a power failure. - Page 11 New Sounds You may notice new sounds as your water softener operates. The regeneration cycle lasts up to 180 minutes. During this time, you may hear water running intermittently to the drain. Regeneration Process and Precision Brining When the system capacity is near exhausted, a regeneration is necessary to restore the sys- tem to full capacity.

Manual Bypass In the case of emergency, such as an overflowing brine tank, you can isolate your water softener from the water supply using the bypass valve located at the back of the control. In normal operation the bypass is open with the on/off knobs in line with the inlet and outlet pipes. - Page 13 Cleaning or Replacing Injectors Sediment, salt and silt will restrict or clog the injector. A clean water supply and pure salt will prevent this from happening. The injector assembly is located on the right side of the control valve. This assembly is easy to clean.

Trouble Shooting Issue Possible Cause Possible Solution A. Unit fails to initiate a 1. No power supply. Check electrical service, fuse, etc. regeneration cycle. 2. Defective circuit board. Replace faulty parts. 3. Power failure. Reset time of day. 4. Defective meter. Replace turbine meter. B. Water is hard. 1. By‐pass valve open. Close by‐pass valve. 2. Out of salt or salt level below water level. Add salt to tank. 3. Plugged injector / screen. Clean parts. 4. Flow of water blocked to brine tank. Check brine tank refill rate. 5. Hard water in hot water tank. Repeat flushing of hot water tank required. 6. Leak between valve and central tube. Check if central tube is cracked or o‐ring is damaged. Replace faulty parts. 7. Internal valve leak. Replace valve seals, spacer, and piston assembly. 8. Reserve capacity setting too low. Increase reserve capacity. 9. Not enough capacity. Increase salt dosage. C. Salt use is high. 1. Refill time is too high. Check refill time setting. 2. Defective flow control. Replace. -
