PREINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR DEALERS: The manufacturer has preset the water treatment unit’s sequence of cycles and cycle times. The dealer should read this page and guide the installer regarding hardness, day override, and time of regeneration, before installation. For the installer, the following must be used: • Program Installer Settings: Day Override (preset to 3 days) and Time of Regeneration (preset to 12 a.m.
BYPASS VALVE: The bypass valve is typically used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system’s water pressure in order to perform control valve repairs or maintenance. The 1” full flow bypass valve incorporates four positions, including a diagnostic position that allows a service technician to have pressure to test a system while providing untreated bypass water to the building. Be sure to install bypass valve onto main control valve, before beginning plumbing.
INSTALLATION: GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The control valve, fittings and/or bypass are designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments. There is a small amount of “give” to properly connect the piping, but the water softener is not designed to support the weight of the plumbing. Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere. A silicone lubricant may be used on black “O” Rings, but is not necessary.
W hen installing an air regenerating filter the customer may experience, under certain conditions, small amounts of air (cloudy water) at the taps. This is normal. On rare occasions, this may result in “shots of air” at a particular fixture. By installing a loop or “U” on the outlet side of the unit, this will act as an air trap and improve this situation. L ocated inside the inlet is an internal check valve (see diagram at right).
8. C HECK VALVE: All air systems include an internal check valve and screen assembly as part of the air draw system (see diagram at right). This check valve, screen, and elbow are exclusive to the air system and are not to be confused or interchanged with a brine elbow used on a softener. The gray color of the elbow indicates use with an air system vs. a black elbow which indicates use with a water softeners.
PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES: 1. Set time of day: Time of day should only need to be set after extended power outages or when daylight saving time begins or ends. If an extended power outage occurs, the time of day will flash on and off indicating that the time should be reset. STEP 1 – Press set clock. STEP 2 – C URRENT TIME (HOUR): Set the hour of the day using + or — buttons. AM/PM toggles after 12. Press next to go to step 3. STEP 3 – C URRENT TIME (MINUTES): Set the minutes using + or — buttons.
STARTUP INSTRUCTIONS: FLUSHING OF SYSTEM: To flush the system of any debris and air after installation is complete, please perform the following steps: 1. Rotate bypass handles to the bypass mode (see Fig. 2 of page 4). 2. Turn on inlet water and check for leaks in the newly installed plumbing. 3. Fully open a cold water faucet, preferable at a laundry sink or bathtub without an aerator. 4. Wait two to three minutes or until water runs clear, then turn water off and follow start-up instructions.
OPERATING DISPLAYS AND INSTRUCTIONS: 1. G ENERAL OPERATION: When the system is operating, one of three displays may be shown. Pressing next will alternate between the displays. One of the displays is always the current time of day. The second display shows the current treated water flow rate through the system in Gallons Per Minute. The third display is capacity remaining. Capacity remaining is the gallons that will be treated before the system goes through a regeneration cycle.
5. E RROR MESSAGE: If the word “ERROR” and a number are alternately flashing on the display record the number and contact the dealer for help. This indicates that the control valve was not able to function properly. ERROR MESSAGE 6. C HLORINE TANK AND MAINTENANCE: In severe cases where iron or sulfate bacteria conditions exist, the dealer may have installed a chlorine tank with your system (see diagram, page 7).
REPLACEMENT MINERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACID NEUTRALIZERS: The IMBF-AN, IMAN and IACG systems raise the pH of mildy acidic water. The raising of pH utilizes a sacrificial mineral that will need replenishment every 6 to 12 months. Typically the media should not be below the halfway point in the tank. In order to check the mineral height and before adding mineral to the system, please follow these instructions. 1.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE: PROBLEM 1. N o display on PC board 2. P C board does not display correct time of day 3. D isplay does not indicate that water is flowing. Refer to user instructions for how the display indicates water is flowing. 4. C ontrol valve regenerates at wrong time of day 5. T ime of day flashes on and off CAUSE CORRECTION A. No power at electric outlet A. Repair outlet or use working outlet B.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE cont’d: PROBLEM 7. Control valve does not regenerate automatically but does when the correct button(s) is depressed and held. For timeclock valves the buttons are s & t. For all other valves the button is REGEN. 8. H ard or untreated water is being delivered 9. C ontrol valve uses too much regenerant 10. R esidual regenerant being delivered to service 11. E xcessive water in regenerant tank CAUSE CORRECTION A. Bypass valve in bypass position A.
PROBLEM 12. Control valve fails to draw in regenerant 13. W ater running to drain 14. E 1, Err – 1001, Err – 101 = Control unable to sense motor movement 15. E 2, Err – 1002, Err – 102 = Control valve motor ran too short and was unable to find the next cycle position and stalled CAUSE CORRECTION A. Injector is plugged A. R emove injector and clean or replace B. Faulty regenerant piston B. Replace regenerant piston C. Regenerant line connection leak C.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE cont’d: PROBLEM CAUSE CORRECTION A. Motor failure during a regeneration 16. E3, Err – 1003, Err – 103 = Control valve B. Foreign matter built up on piston and stack motor ran too long and assemblies creating friction and drag enough was unable to find the to time out motor next cycle position C. Drive bracket not snapped in properly and out enough that reduction gears and drive gear do not interface 17. E4, Err – 1004, Err – 104 = Control valve A.
