MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER General, Residential & Commercial Installation Check List WATER PRESSURE: A minimum of 25 pounds of water pressure is required for regeneration valve to operate effectively. ELECTRICAL FACILITIES: A continuous 110 volt, 60 Hertz current supply is required. Make certain the current supply is always hot and cannot be turned off with another switch. EXISTING PLUMBING: Condition of existing plumbing should be free from lime and iron buildup.
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER General, Residential & Commercial Installation Check List (Cont’d.) 14. Cycle timer into backwash position. Turn manual knob (figure 1) so that the micro switch is riding on the 1st set of pins (figure 2). In this position the tanks will switch (lower piston) and the control valve will move to the backwash position (upper piston). You must wait until the positioning of upper and lower pistons has stopped before advancing the timer further.
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER Regeneration Cycle Program Setting Procedure (Brine Tank Refill Separate From Rapid Rinse) How To Set The Regeneration Cycle Program: The regeneration cycle program on your water conditioner has been factory preset, however, portions of the cycle or program may be lengthened or shortened in time to suit local conditions. BRINE & RINSE SECTION (2 MIN.
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER Time Brine Refill & Meter Setting Procedure PROGRAMMING 1. Your control valve has been factory set for backwash; brine and slow rinse; rapid rinse and brine tank fill times. See the control valve specification sheet (pg. 24). Any of these times can be changed by repositioning the pins and holes or adding more pins (see pg. 5). Note that two different speed timer motors are used, one allows for an 82 minute maximum regeneration time (each pin or hole = 1 min.).
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER Time Brine Refill & Meter Setting Procedure (Cont’d.) If we have 1000 gallons available from Step 3, we want to subtract the regeneration water used from the total water available. 1000 gallons available - 55. gallons used = 945 gallons setting (in regeneration) 4. NOW set Meter wheel at approximately 950 gallons. Lift the inner dial of the meter program wheel so that you can rotate it freely. Position the white dot opposite the 950 gallon setting (see diag. below).
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER BRINE VALVE FLOW CONTROL DRAIN 1 - SERVICE POSITION Hard water enters the unit at the valve inlet, flows around the lower piston, and down through the mineral in the first tank. Conditioned water enters the center tube through the bottom distributor, flows up through the center tube, around the lower piston, through the meter, and out the valve outlet. The second mineral tank is regenerated and on standby.
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER BRINE VALVE FLOW CONTROL DRAIN 3 - BACKWASH Conditioned water from the second mineral tank flows around the lower piston, around the upper piston, through the center of the lower piston, down the center tube, up through the mineral, around the upper piston, and out the drain line.
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER BRINE VALVE FLOW CONTROL DRAIN 5 - SLOW RINSE Conditioned water from the second mineral tank flows around the lower piston, around the upper piston, into the injector housing, down through the nozzle and throat, around the upper piston, down through the mineral, into the center tube through the bottom distributor, up the center tube, through the center of the lower piston, through the center of the upper piston, and out through the drain line.
MODEL 9000 ECONOMINDER BRINE VALVE FLOW CONTROL DRAIN 7 - BRINE TANK FILL POSITION Conditioned water from the second mineral tank flows around the lower piston, around the upper piston, into the injector housing, through the brine line flow control, through the brine valve, and into to brine tank. No water flows through the first mineral tank.
