B Basic information
1 | Laws, regulations, standards
2 | Water, scale, softening
In the interest of good health, rules cannot be ignored when it
comes to the processing of drinking water (raw water). This
operation manual takes into consideration the current
regulations and stipulates information that you will need for the
safe operation of your water treatment system.
Among other things, the regulations stipulate that
only approved companies are permitted to make major
modifications to water supply facilities
and that tests, inspections and maintenance on installed
devices are to be performed at regular intervals.
The water works provide us with pure water (raw water) that is
suitable for drinking. However, this water is much more often
used for washing machines, heating systems, water heaters,
commercial devices, etc., where it can lead to problems if it is
"hard".
Hard water is generated if water containing carbon dioxide*
flows through layers of calcium. It dissolves the calcium until the
so-called calcium - carbon dioxide - equilibrium has been
reached.
If this equilibrium is unsettled (e.g. by heating CO
more calcium (CaCO
) is precipitated (scale).

nature, e.g. in the mineral dolomite.
Hardness ranges according to the German Act on Environmental
Sustainability of Detergents and Cleaning Agents (WMRG):
The total hardness of the water is the sum of the concentrations
of calcium ions and magnesium ions.
From hardness range "medium" onwards, it is advisable to
soften the water for usage. Additional measures may be
necessary depending on the original quality of the water and its
intended use.
* CO2 from the atmosphere is dissolved in water. In this process, a low
amount of carbon dioxide is generated.

3 | Ion exchange
Water softener
GENO-mat duo WE-X,
GENO-mat duo WE-OSMO-X
The exchange of calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions
causes the water to become soft.
Principle
The hard raw water flows through an exchanger. This tank is filled
with a resin, to which sodium ions are bonded (see Fig. B-1).
Resin
Fig. B-1: Initial position
Hard water
Resin
Soft water
Fig. B-2: Operation
Since the bonding positions at the resin prefer calcium and
magnesium ions to sodium ions, these ions are retained while
the resin discharges sodium ions into the water (exchange
reaction). In this way, all substances causing hardness remain
in the exchanger. Soft water loaded with sodium ions leaves the
exchanger (Fig. B-2). This process continues until the sodium
ions are used up.
The exchange reaction can be reversed if a large amount of
sodium ions (salt solution = brine) is added (Fig. B-3).
By their sheer number, the sodium ions displace the calcium
and magnesium ions at the docking positions of the resin.
This process restores the initial state. The resin is regenerated
and is again ready for softening.
Drinking water (raw water)
As protection against corrosion, we recommend a soft water
hardness of at least 3 °dH (5.3 °f, 0.53 mmol/l). According to the
German Drinking Water Ordinance, the limit value for sodium
ions (200 mg/l) must not be exceeded. This hardness is achieved
by adding untreated drinking water (raw water), a process which
is commonly called blending.

Single/Twin/Triple water softeners
In case of single water softeners, no soft water is available
during the regeneration phase.
Twin water softeners have two exchangers that alternate
operation. As a result, soft water is available at all times.
Triple water softeners consist of three exchangers. Two
exchangers are flown through in parallel while the third is being
regenerated.
Note: Many popular mineral waters contain significantly
more sodium ions. Check for yourself by reading the
analysis results on the labels.
Warning! Risk of infection due to germs in the drinking
water. Germs can reproduce in stagnant water to the
point where they pose a threat. Work with water
softeners requires special hygienic measures. Ensure
that there is sufficient flow. Disinfect the systems if
required.

2 | Technical specifications
The GENO-mat duo WE-X water softener is a twin system for
the continuous supply of soft water. The system is equipped with
a central control valve for both exchangers and is volumecontrolled. The regeneration is released when the pre-set water
volume in an exchanger tank has been softened. The system
regenerates with soft water.
All system data is summarised in tables C-1 and C-2. The data
given refers to standard water softeners. Possible deviations
in case of special versions are communicated separately,
if applicable.
Serial number:
Serial number:
The GENO-mat duo WE-OSMO-X water softener is only
available with full salting. The control electronics is not equipped
with an operating and display unit. The system is operated by
means of the control electronics of the OSMO-X reverse
osmosis system.
Warning! Extended periods of idleness may cause bacterial
growth in drinking water. Automatic regeneration counteracts this
effect. Therefore, do not disconnect the system from the water
and power supply when you are absent for longer periods of
time.
Caution! Electrically operated valves. In case of power failure
during the regeneration, water may flow into the drain or brine
tank. In the event of power failure, check the system and shut-off
the water supply, if necessary.

3 | Designated application
Water softener
GENO-mat duo WE-X,
GENO-mat duo WE-OSMO-X
The water to be softened has to be free of iron and manganese
Water softeners of the GENO-mat duo WE-X series are
designed for the softening and partial softening of cold drinking
and process water. As twin systems, they are suitable for the
continuous supply of soft water. There are system types
available with regeneration with full salting or economy salting.
In this case, the type of regeneration is type-specific and is not
allowed to be changed independently.
Note: In order to soften the water to less than 0.1 °dH, only and
exclusively systems with full salting may be applied.
(less than 0.2 mg iron and/or 0.05 mg manganese per litre).
Its temperature must not exceed 30 °C. The maximum ambient
temperature is 40 °C.
The systems are used for the (partial) softening of well, process,
boiler feed, cooling and air-conditioning water.
When softening drinking water, the provisions of the German
Drinking Water Ordinance are binding (residual hardness of
3 °dH - 8 °dH, max. sodium content of 200 mg/l (chapter E-2.1.).
A blending valve for mixing supply water is also needed.
The system is adjusted to the soft water requirements to be
expected at the installation site, it is not suitable for major
deviations. The maximum continuous flow must not be exceeded
under any circumstances.
The system may only be operated if all components are installed
properly. Safety devices and equipment must NEVER be
removed, bridged or tampered with.
Appropriate application of the device also implies that the
information contained in this operation manual and all safety
guidelines applying at the installation site be observed. Furthermore, the maintenance and inspection intervals have to be
observed.
4 | Application limits
The application limit is defined by the maximum continuous flow
corresponding to the data in tables C-1 and C-2 for raw water in
the hardness ranges 1 - 3. With very hard water (from hardness
range 4 onwards), there may be a drop in the continuous flow.
In this case, the application limit of the system is defined by the
formula:
