SOFTENER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL INFORMATION
Before beginning installation, thoroughly review the following instructions to familiarize yourself with
the general placement and identification of all components.
These instructions are written for a single unit installation, but they also generally apply to twin and
triple units. Refer to specific equipment layout drawing, water meter installation instruction, and
interconnecting electrical wiring diagram for your system.
Minimum operating pressure is 30 psi.
If pressure less then 30 psi is encountered, a pump must be installed.
Maximum operating pressure is 100 psi.
If pressure greater then 100 psi is encountered, a pressure regulator must be installed.
Power requirements are shown on electrical wiring diagram.
Standard units are designed to soften unheated water in the range is 35-100F.
Special valve assemblies are available to handle heated water supplies exceeding 100°F.
Consult factory if applicable.
Catalog softeners are shipped fully assembled with face piping and controllers. Care must be taken
not to damage valves or controllers during uncrating and installation.
During unpacking the brine tank miscellaneous parts are shipped inside the brine tank. These parts
include hardness test kit, injectors, extra manuals and other parts that may apply to your particular
system. Care should be taken when unpacking the brine tank.
SOFTENER LOCATION
1. Select a position near a floor drain that has adequate carrying capacity to handle the water
softener backwash rate. See the Specification Table for the backwash rate of your system.
2. Refer to your specific equipment layout drawing located on page 31 for tank locations. The
approximate dimensions required for your particular system is shown on page 4. Make sure the
softeners are placed on a level concrete surface.

PIPING INSTALLATION
Note:
•Install the piping conforming to federal, provincial, and local codes.
•Union or flanges are recommended at the control valve's inlet, outlet, and drain connections
•To enhance the monitoring of the system's performance sample valves and pressure gauges
can be installed at the inlet and outlet piping to each control valve.
•If distance of drain line is over a 10 ft. vertical or 25 ft. horizontal run, increase drain line one
pipe size over that provided on the control valve.
•Do not make a direct connection to the drain. Provide an air gap of at least four times the
diameter of the pipe to conform to sanitation codes and to permit observation of the flow.
•It is not recommended that an overhead or a long horizontal drain run be used. The increase
of backpressure will cause problems when drawing brine.
1. Install piping as shown on the layout drawing located on page 31. Include unions and shut-off
valves on the inlet and outlet of each softener. Also, include a shut-off valve for each injector
provided with the system. It is recommended that a union be installed in each softener drain-line
to facilitate cleaning the backwash flow control.
Note: Do not reduce drain-line pipe size. Do not install a shut off valve in the drain-line. Provide
an air gap in the drain line in accordance with local codes (minimum four (4) pipe diameters).
2. If your system has a water meter thoroughly read the meter instructions manual located in the
back of this manual before installing any water meters or flow sensors,. Water meters typically
must be installed in a particular manner (i.e. horizontal, plane or with recommend pipe lengths)
to function properly.
3. After the piping has been completed, make sure to close all isolation valves.

BRINE TANK INSTALLATION
1. The brine tank is placedas shown on the installation drawing, on a smooth level surface. If not,
the tank should be placed on a smooth piece of exterior plywood and leveled by placing shims
beneath the plywood.
2. Make sure that the salt shelf inside the tank is level and that the brine well is near to vertical as
possible. Check the specifications table and make sure that the float setting is the proper height
for the model provided. Brine tanks are shipped with the float set for maximum salting. If
incorrect, slide the float to the proper setting. Float should be one inch above grid plate.
3. Place brine valve into the brine well and set at the bottom of the brine tank.
Note: If minimum brine draw is desired, remove the pipe nipple and coupling from the brine
assembly. Install remaining brine valve assembly into elbow using Teflon tape or Teflon
paste, and set float to minimum salt level see Specification Table on page 3 for settings.
Place brine valve into brine well. Brine valve assembly will not sit on bottom of brine tank.
4. Connect the brine valve to the brine injector.
5. Open the injector feed water valve and allow the brine tank to fill with water. To speed this
process the tank can be filled with hose to about 2” below the platform. The tank will continue to
fill until the float rises and shuts of the flow (approximately 1” above the platform).
Note: In the process of making brine for the first regeneration, the solution volume will increase
(one gallon of water will be 1.2 gallons of brine). The final level of the liquid will be several
inches above the platform.
6. If the refill water shuts off below the platform or too far above the platform, the brine valve should
be remove and the float adjusted up or down until is shuts off approximately 1” above the
platform. Place the brine well cap seal in place and open the manual valve in the brine line to
the softener tank.

7. Advance Unit 1 to the backwash step. The unit 1 stager should rotate
to the step 1 (backwash) position.
8. Slowly open the manual inlet supply valve. Do not open fully. Full
flow of water could cause loss of media. Continue to fill slowly until
all air is expelled and only water flows to the drain. Water will enter
from the bottom of the resin tank as air is expelled from the top drain.
If the system is supplied with an air vent make sure that the valve is
open during this process.
9. When only water flows to the drain and out the air vent (if applicable),
open the manual inlet valve all of the way. Backwash until the water
looks clean when caught in a container.
10.Advance Unit 1 to the brine/slow rinse step. The Unit 1 stager should
rotate to the step 2 brine/slow rinse position. There will be a slow flow
to the drain.
11.While the Unit 1 is in the Brine/Slow Rinse position, check the level
in the brine tank. The level should be dropping at a slow rate
(approximately 2” per minute).
12.Advance Unit 1 to the Fast Rinse position. The Unit 1 stager should
rotate to the step 3 (Fast rinse) position. There will be a high flow of
water to the drain. Allow the water to flow to the drain until clear.
During this time, the brine tank will fill with water until the float
closes the brine tank valve. Check that all brine fittings are tight and
that the water level in the brine tank is according to the unit
specifications.
13.Advance Unit 1 to the service position. The unit 1 stager should rotate
to the step 4 Service position. There will be no flow of water to the
drain.
14.Perform steps 3-13 to the other units.

ELECTRICAL CONTROLS OPERATION
General-the main control panel (MCP) contains the programmable logic controller (PLC) and the
operator interface (OIT). The system is controlled by the PLC. Operator intervention and control
along with some program set point access is through the OIT. The PLC controls the system so that
one or more units will be online (in service) based on flow demand. If flow is low then only one unit
will be online. If flow increases past the set point for bringing the second unit online then the second
unit will come online. As flow decreases, the second unit that was brought online will be taken offline
to standby status. A unit will be automatically regenerated when its gallon batch throughput set point
has been reached. A unit can also be manually forced into regeneration by using a pushbutton on
the OIT. A regeneration lockout is built into the logic so that only one unit can be in regeneration at a
time.
Note: Follow all applicable codes and regulations when wiring in this system.
Caution: Verify all power is disconnected before servicing the equipment.
INTERCONNECT WIRING
Power: Wire a single phase 120volt 15 amp max. fused circuit to MCP terminals “L”,”N”, “G”. This
power supply should be surge protected
Dashed Lines on the wiring diagram indicate field wiring. If your unit is skid mounted then normally
the only wiring that is needed is incoming power.
