General Residential Installation Check List
WATER PRESSURE: A minimum of 25 pounds of water pressure is required for regeneration valve to operate
effectively.
ELECTRICAL FACILITIES: An uninterrupted alternating current (A/C) supply is required. Please make sure your
voltage supply is compatible with your unit before installation.
EXISTING PLUMBING: Condition of existing plumbing should be free from lime and iron buildup. Piping that is
built up heavily with lime and/or iron should be replaced. If piping is clogged with iron, a separate iron filter unit
should be installed ahead of the water softener.
LOCATION OF SOFTENER AND-DRAIN: The softener should be located close to a clean working drain and con-
nected according to local plumbing codes.
BY-PASS VALVES: Always provide for the installation of a by-pass valve if unit is not equipped with one.
CAUTION: Water pressure is not to exceed 120 p.s.i., water temperature is not to exceed 110°F, and the unit
cannot be subjected to freezing conditions.
Valve Installation And Start-Up Procedures
01. Place the softener tank where you want to install the unit, making sure the tank is level and on a firm base.
02. During cold weather it is recommended that the installer warm the valve up to room temperature before oper-
ating.
03. All plumbing should be done in accordance with local plumbing codes. The pipe size for the drain should be a
minimum of 1/2”. Backwash flow rates in excess of 7 gpm or length in excess of 20’ require 3/4” drain line.
04. The 1” distributor tube (1.050 O.D.) should be cut flush with top of each tank. Note:-Only use silicone lubri-
cant.
05. Lubricate the distributor o-ring seal and tank “o” ring seal. Place the main control valve on tank.
06. Solder joints near the drain must be done prior to connecting the Drain Line Flow Control fitting (DLFC). Leave
at least 6” between the DLFC and solder joints when soldering pipes that are connected on the DLFC. Failure
to do this could cause interior damage to DLFC.
07. Teflon tape is the only sealant to be used on the drain fitting.
08. Make sure that the floor is clean beneath the salt storage tank and that it is level.
09. Place approximately 1” of water above the grid plate. If a grid is not utilized, fill to the top of the air check in
the salt tank. Do not add salt to the brine tank at this time.
10. On units with a by-pass, place in by-pass position. Turn on the main water supply. Open a cold soft water tap
nearby and let run a few minutes or until the system is free from foreign material (usually solder) that may
have resulted from the installation. Once clean, close the water tap.
11. Place the by-pass in service position and let water flow into the mineral tank. When water flow stops, slowly
open a cold water tap nearby and let run until the air is purged from the unit. Then close tap.
12. Plug the valve into an approved power source. Once the valve is powered it will drive to the Service Position.

Control Start-Up Procedures, Continued
Depending on current control programming, option setting displays that are not required to be
set will not be viewed.
Set Control Programming
1. The first option setting display that appears in the Program Mode is Treated Water Capacity.Using the
Set Up or Down Buttons, set the amount of treated water that can flow through theunit before a regeneration
is required. For Example
2. Push the Extra Cycle Button. The second option setting display that appears is Regeneration Time.
Using the Set Up or Down Buttons, set the desired time of day when a regeneration can occur, if required.
For Example:
650 Gallons Capacity
2:00 A.M. Regeneration Time
3. Push the Extra Cycle Button. The third option setting display that appears is Regeneration Day Over-
ride. Using the Set Up or Down Buttons, set the maximum number of days before a regeneration cycle
must occur. For Example:
Regenerate Every
7 Days Minimum
4. Control programming is now complete. Push the Extra Cycle Button. This will exit the control from
the Programming Mode, and resume Normal Operation.

When starting an Extra Cycle, you will have one or two options:
1. Press and Release the Extra Cycle Button:
-With Immediate Regeneration controls the control will go into regeneration cycle immediately.
- With Delayed Regeneration controls the Service Arrow will begin to flash immediately and a
regeneration will occur at the preset regeneration time (i.e. 2:00 a.m.)
2. Press and Hold for 5 seconds the Extra Cycle Button:
- With Delayed Regeneration controls this will force the control to go into regeneration cycle immediately.

Page 7
A. Once the valve reaches Regen Step #1 let water run to drain for about 5 minutes.
Next, manually step the valve through a regen cycle checking valve operation in each step:
B. Push the Extra Cycle Button once to advance the valve to Regen Step #2.
C. Push the Extra Cycle Button once to advance the valve to Regen Step #3. (Optional)
D. Push the Extra Cycle Button once to advance the valve to Regen Step #4. (Optional)
E. Push the Extra Cycle Button once more to advance the valve back to Service.
With proper valve operation verified:
A. Add water to the top of the air check. Manually step the valve to the Brine Draw Posi-
tion and allow the valve to draw water from the brine tank until it stops. Note: The air
check will check at approximately the midpoint of the screened intake area.
B. Next, manually step the valve to the Brine Refill Position and allow the valve to return
to Service automatically.
C. With the valve in Service, check that there is about 1.0” of water above the grid in the
brine tank, if used.
D. Fill the brine tank with salt.
E. Set-Up is now finished, the control can now be left to run automatically.

Control Operation
Timeclock Regeneration Valves
In normal operation the Time Of Day Display will be viewed at all times. The control will operate normally until the
number of days since the last regeneration reaches the Regeneration Day Override setting. Once this occurs, a
regeneration cycle will then be initiated at the preset Regeneration Time.
Flow Meter Equipped Valves
In normal operation the Time Of Day Display will alternate being viewed with a Volume Remaining Display. This
display will be in gallons. As treated water is used, the Volume Remaining Display will count down from a maxi-
mum value to zero or (----). Once this occurs a regeneration cycle will then be initiated immediately or delayed to
the set Regeneration Time. Water flow through the valve is indicated by the Flow Dot that will flash in a direct
relationship to flow rate. For Example:
833 Gallons Of Treated
Water Remaining
0 Gallons Of Treated
Water Remaining
Immediate Regeneration Valves With Days Between Regeneration Override Set
When the valve reaches its set Days Since Regeneration Override value a regeneration cycle will be initiated im-
mediately. This event occurs regardless of the Volume Remaining display having reached zero gallons.
Delayed Regeneration Valves With Days Between Regeneration Override Set
When the valve reaches its set Days Since Regeneration Override value a regeneration cycle will be initiated at
the preset Regeneration Time. This event occurs regardless of the Volume Remaining display having reached
zero gallons.
Control Operation During Regeneration
In Regeneration the control will display a special Regeneration Display. In this display the control will show the
current regeneration step number the valve is advancing to, or has reached, and the time remaining in that step.
The step number displayed will flash until the valve has completed driving to this regeneration step position. Once
all regeneration steps have been completed the valve will return to Service and resume normal operation.
For Example:
Pushing the Extra Cycle Button during a regeneration cycle will immediately advance the valve to the next cycle
stepposition and resume normal step timing.
Control Operation During Programming
The control will only enter the Program Mode with the valve in Service. While in the Program Mode the control
will continue to operate normally monitoring water usage and keeping all displays up to date. Control program-
ming is stored in memory permanently, without the need for battery backup power.
Control Operation During A Power Failure
During a power failure all control displays and programming will be stored for use upon power re-application. The
control will retain these values for years, if necessary, without loss. The control will be fully inoperative and any
calls for regeneration will be delayed. The control will upon power re-application resume normal operation from
the point were it was interrupted. An indication that a power outage has occurred will be an inaccurate time of day
display.
