PREINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR DEALERS: The manufacturer has preset the water treatment unit’s sequence of cycles, cycle times, salt dose, exchange capacity and salt dose refill time. 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: Hardness, Day Override (preset to 12 days), and Time of Regeneration (preset to 2 a.m.
1. NORMAL OPERATION POSITION: The inlet and outlet handles point in the direction of flow indicated by the engraved arrows on the control valve. Water flows through the control valve for normal operation of a water softener. During the regeneration cycle this position provides regeneration water to the unit, while also providing untreated water to the distribution system (Fig. 1). 2. BYPASS POSITION: The inlet and outlet handles point to the center of the bypass.
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.
. INLET/OUTLET PLUMBING: Be sure to install Bypass Valve onto main control valve before beginning plumbing. Make provisions to bypass outside hydrant and cold hard water lines at this time. Install an inlet shutoff valve and plumb to the unit’s bypass valve inlet located at the right rear as you face the unit. There are a variety of installation fittings available. They are listed under Installation Fitting Assemblies, page 24-25.
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 – CURRENT 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 – CURRENT TIME (MINUTES): Set the minutes using + or — buttons.
2. Programming cont’d: STEP 4 – REGENERATION HOUR: The manufacturer has factory set 2:00 A.M. as the default. This is the hour of day for regeneration and can be reset by using + or — buttons. “AM/PM” toggles after 12. The default time is 2:00 a.m. (recommended for a normal household). Press NEXT to go to step 5. Press REGEN if you need to return to the previous step. STEP 5 – REGENERATION MINUTES: Set the minutes using + or — buttons. Press NEXT to exit installer programming.
3. MANUAL REGENERATION: Sometimes there is a need to regenerate before the control valve calls for it. This may be needed if a period of heavy water use is anticipated or when the system has been operated without salt. • To initiate a manual regeneration at the next preset regeneration time, press and release REGEN. The words “REGEN TODAY” will flash on the display to indicate that the system will regenerate at the next regeneration time (set in Programming, steps 4 and 5).
5. ERROR 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 6. BRINE TANK MAINTENANCE AND SALT: Refill the brine tank as necessary, making sure at least 1/3 of the brine tank is full at all times. Without proper salt levels, the water softener may not operate properly.
START-UP INSTRUCTIONS: • • • • After installation is complete, rotate bypass handles to bypass mode (see Fig.2 on page 4). Turn on water and check for leaks. Fully open a cold water faucet — preferably a laundry sink or bathtub without an aerator. Allow water to run until clear to rid pipes of debris which may have occurred during installation. System regeneration sequence is in the following order. (If it is desired to change this sequence, please refer to the Dealer Manual or contact the manufacturer.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE: PROBLEM 1. No display on PC board 2. PC board does not display correct time of day 3. Display does not indicate that water is flowing. Refer to user instructions for how the display indicates water is flowing. 4. Control valve regenerates at wrong time of day 5. Time of day flashes on and off CAUSE CORRECTION A. No power at electric outlet A. Repair outlet or use working outlet B.
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 ▲ & ▼. For all other valves the button is REGEN. 8. Hard or untreated water is being delivered 9. Control valve uses too much regenerant 10. Residual regenerant being delivered to service 11. Excessive water in regenerant tank CAUSE CORRECTION A. Bypass valve in bypass position A. Turn bypass handles to place bypass in service position B.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE cont’d: PROBLEM 12. Control valve fails to draw in regenerant 13. Water running to drain 14. E1, Err – 1001, Err – 101 = Control unable to sense motor movement 15. E2, 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. Remove injector and clean or replace B. Faulty regenerant piston B. Replace regenerant piston C. Regenerant line connection leak C.
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 – A.
