Installer manual Fleck 5800 XTR - Safety
Ref. MKT-IM-006 / E - 12.11.2019 13 / 126
2.3.2 Material
The following points must be observed to ensure proper operation of the system and the safety of
user:
• be careful of high voltages present on the transformer (100 – 240V);
• do not put your fingers in the system (risk of injuries with moving parts and shock due to
electric voltage).
2.4 Hygiene and sanitization
2.4.1 Sanitary issues
Preliminary checks and storage
• Check the integrity of the packaging. Check that there is no damage and no signs of contact
with liquid to make sure that no external contamination occurred;
• the packaging has a protective function and must be removed just before installation. For
transportation and storage, appropriate measures should be adopted to prevent the
contamination of materials or the objects themselves.
Assembly
• Assemble only with components which are in accordance with drinking water standards;
• after installation and before use, perform one or more manual regenerations in order to
clean the media bed. During such operations, do not use the water for human consumption.
Perform a disinfection of the system in the case of installations for treatment of drinking
water for human use.
Info
This operation must be repeated in the case of ordinary and extraordinary
maintenance. It should also be repeated whenever the system remains idle for a
significant time.
Valid only for Italy
In case of equipment used in accordance with the DM25, apply all the signs and
obligations arising from the DM25.
2.4.2 Hygiene measures
Disinfection
• The materials used for the construction of our products meet the standards for use with
potable water; the manufacturing processes are also geared to preserving these criteria.
However, the process of production, distribution, assembly and installation, may create
conditions of bacterial proliferation, which may lead to odor problems and water
contamination;
• it is therefore strongly recommended to sanitize the products. See Sanitization [}Page 88] ;
• maximum cleanliness is recommended during the assembly and installation;
• for disinfection, use Sodium or Calcium Hypochlorite and perform a manual regeneration.

3.2 Performance flow rate characteristics
The graph shows the pressure drop created by the valve itself at different flow rates. It allows
predetermining the maximum flow rate going through the valve depending on the system settings
(inlet pressure etc). It also allows to determine the valve pressure drop at a given flow rate, and
therefore to evaluate the system pressure drop vs flow rate.

3.5 System regeneration cycle
Info
This valve allows to do filtration, down flow and up flow regenerations.
3.5.1 Downflow regeneration cycle (5-cycles operation)
Service — normal use
Untreated water is directed down through the resin bed and up through the riser tube. The
hardness ions attach themselves to the resin and are removed from the raw water being
exchanged on the resin beads by sodium ions. The water is conditioned as it passes through the
resin bed.
Backwash — cycle C1
The flow of water is reversed by the valve and directed down the riser tube and up through the
resin bed. During the backwash cycle, the bed is expanded and debris is flushed to the drain, while
the media bed is remixed.
Brine draw & slow rinse — cycles C2
The valve directs water through the brine injector and brine is drawn from the brine tank. The
brine is then directed down through the resin bed and up through the riser tube to the drain. The
hardness ions on the resin beads are replaced by sodium ions and are sent to the drain. The resin
is regenerated during the brine cycle. When the air check valve closes brine drawing finishes, and
then the slow rinse phase starts.
Rapid rinse — cycle C3
The valve directs water down through the resin bed and up through the riser tube to the drain. Any
residual brine is rinsed from the resin bed, while the media bed is re-compacted.
Brine tank refill — cycle C4
Water is directed to the brine tank, at a rate controlled by the refill controller [BLFC], to create
brine for the next regeneration. During brine refill, treated water is already available at the valve
outlet.
Info
For illustration purpose only. Always verify inlet and outlet marking on the valve.
