The amount of salt placed in the brine tank has nothing to
do with the amount of salt used during the regeneration
cycle. Water will dissolve and absorb salt only until
it becomes saturated. A given amount of brine (salt-
saturated water) contains a specifi c amount of salt. The
salt dial controls the amount of brine used during the
regeneration cycle (e.g., when set at
15 pounds (6.8 kg) the amount of brine the conditioner
will use for each regeneration will contain 15 pounds
(6.8 kg) of salt, etc.)
Never let the amount of salt in the brine tank be lower
than the normal liquid level. Do not overload the brine
tank with salt.
Guest Cycle
When abnormally high water usage exhausts your
water conditioner’s capacity ahead of schedule, an extra
regeneration can be achieved. Depress the indicator
knob on the 440i (5) with a wide-blade screwdriver and
turn COUNTERCLOCKWISE to START to initiate a
regeneration. For the 460i, simply depress the indicator
knob (5). It will take a few minutes for regeneration to
start. A normal regeneration will take approximately two
hours.
Manual Regeneration
Electricity is used only to run the control and to
rotate the camsha . All other functions are operated
by water pressure. Therefore, in the event of a power
outage, all the regeneration positions may be dialed
manually by depressing the indicator knob and turning
COUNTERCLOCKWISE ( and ). The following cycle
times should be used for proper regeneration:
BACKWASH—14 m i nutes
BRINE/SLOW RINSE—52 minutes
FAST RINSE/REFILL—10 m inut es
PURGE—6 minutes
Do not exceed 10 minutes for the FAST RINSE/REFILL
cycle as this will cause excessive salt usage during the next
regeneration and possibly a salt residue in the so ened
water.
So ener conforms to WQA S-100 for the
specifi c performance claims as verifi ed and
substantiated by test data.
