Application Limitations

• Ferrous Iron: 0.3mg/L Max

• Manganese: 0.05mg/L Max

• Copper: 1.3mg/L Max

Iron and Manganese: Just as with conventional water softening

media, RainSoft Centurion needs to be protected from excess levels of

certain metals that can easily coat the active surface, reducing its effec-

tiveness over time. Public water supplies rarely, if ever, present a

problem, but if the water supply is from a private well confirm that the

levels of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) are less than 0.3 mg/L and 0.05

mg/L respectively. Copper should be less than 1.3 mg/L.

Copper: Copper usually originates from new copper plumbing

upstream of the RainSoft Centurion system. If this condition exists, we

recommend waiting 3-4 weeks before placing the system in operation.

This will allow the copper surfaces to be fully flushed and develop a

natural protective surface. To further minimize any problem with

excess copper the plumbers should be advised to avoid applying excess

flux on the inner surfaces of the pipe and to use a low-corrosivity water

soluble flux listed under the ASTM B813 standard. Once the plumbing

connections are complete, place the RainSoft Centurion system in

bypass prior to following the startup procedure and flush the

plumbing for at least 10 minutes.

Existing Plumbing Conditions

Plumbing should be free from lime and/or iron buildup. Piping that

contains large amounts of lime and/or iron should be replaced.

Additional Specifications

• The inlet water should be free of iron and turbidity.

• Do not install this system where water is microbiologically unsafe or

of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after

the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on

disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
