2 foreword Tothecustomers'attention!

youmadeaverygooddecisioninselectingthis
watersofteningsystem,asitstandsforthelatest
developmentsinthewaterconditioningtechnology.

TheSYRwatersoftenerIT4000isdesignedtoprotect
pipesandwaterheatersagainstscaledeposits,which
reducethewaterowthroughthepipesandleadto
ahighenergyconsumption.Byprotectingappliances
andvalves,thedevicepreventsexpensiverepair
works.

Theionexchangerresinislocatedintwoseparate
tanks.Theionexchangerresinisregeneratedintwo
consecutivecycles.Duringregeneration,thetwotanks
alternatelyensurethesoftwatersupply.

Thewatersoftener'scapacityisdesignedtoallowfor
thepartialsofteningofboththetotalwaterinsingle/
multi-familyhousesandofspecicwaterquantities
usedforhotwater,swimmingpools,washing
machinesanddishwashers.

Syntheticpipesorothercorrosionresistantpipes
shallbeinstalledinallcases,wherewaterof0°dH
(Germanhardnessdegree)owsthroughthepipes.
Galvanizedorcoppertubescanbealsousedincase
ofpartialsoftening(approximately8°dH).
Thisstabilizestheremainingcarbonatehardness
particlesandformstheprerequisiteforbuildingupa
homogenousprotectivecoatinginthedownstream
pipingsystem.
Thefunctionalpartsaremadeofhigh-quality
materials,whichallmeetthelocalregulationsand
specications.

Whendelivered,immediatelyverifythatthedevice
showsnovisibledamages.
Incaseofdamagecausedbytransport,directly
contacttheforwardingagency.
Thewarrantydoesnotcoverdamagescausedby
improperhandlingoroperation.
