How Your Water Conditioner Works

Why Water Gets Hard And How It Is Softened

All of the fresh water in the world originally falls as rain, snow, or sleet. Surface water is drawn upward by the sun, forming clouds. Then, nearly pure and soft as it starts to fall, it begins to collect impurities as it passes through smog and dust-laden atmosphere. And as it seeps through soil and rocks it gathers hardness, rust, acid, unpleasant tastes and odors.

Water hardness is caused primarily by limestone dissolved from the earth by rainwater. Because of this, in earlier times people who wanted soft water collected rainwater from roofs in rain barrels and cisterns before it picked up hardness from the earth.

Some localities have corrosive water. A softener cannot correct this problem and so its printed warranty disclaims liability for corrosion of plumbing lines, fixtures or appliances.

Iron is a common water problem. The chemical/physical nature of iron found in natural water supplies is exhibited in four general types:

1. Dissolved Iron—Also called ferrous or “clear water” iron. This type of iron can be removed from the water by the

same ion exchange principle that removes the hardness elements, calcium and magnesium. Dissolved iron is soluble in water and is detected by taking a sample of the water to be treated in a clear glass. The water in the glass is initially clear, but on standing exposed to the air, it may gradually turn cloudy or colored as it oxidizes.

2. Particulate Iron—Also called ferric or colloidal iron. This type of iron is an undissolved particle of iron. A softener will

remove larger particles, but they may not be washed out in regeneration effectively and will eventually foul the ion exchange resin. A filtering treatment will be required to remove this type of iron.

3. Organic Bound Iron—This type of iron is strongly attached to an organic compound in the water. The ion exchange

process alone cannot break this attachment and the softener will not remove this type of iron.

4. Bacterial Iron—This type of iron is protected inside a bacteria cell. Like the organic bound iron, it is not removed by

a water softener.

When using a softener to remove both hardness and dissolved iron it is important that it regenerates more frequently than ordinarily would be calculated for hardness removal alone. Although many factors and formulas have been used to determine this frequency, it is recommended that the softener be regenerated when it has reached 50–75% of the calculated hardness alone capacity. This will minimize the potential for bed fouling.

If you are operating a water softener on clear water iron, regular resin bed cleaning is needed to keep the bed from coating with iron. Even when operating a softener on water with less than the maximum of dissolved iron, regular cleanings should be performed. Clean every six months or more often if iron appears in your conditioned water supply. Use resin bed cleaning compounds carefully following the directions on the container.

CAUTION! Do not use where the water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before or after the unit.

Water softeners remove hardness in the water by exchanging particles in the water, or ions. They remove hard ions the calcium and magnesium in the water by trading it for sodium ions producing soft water. Unlike the calcium and magnesium, sodium stays dissolved in water and does not form a scale. Sodium also does not interfere with the cleaning action of soaps. The sodium is released by a charged resin contained in the softener, this resin also traps the calcium and magnesium ions. Eventually this resin releases all of its sodium and has filled up with other ions, so it then must be regenerated. Regeneration is accomplished by washing the resin with a salt saturated brine solution that removes the calcium and magnesium while replenishing the sodium. This is why the softener requires a brine tank and salt.

The water softener can run for days before running out of sodium, and when it does, the sodium is replenished in only a matter of a few hours.

In normal operation, the Time of Day display will alternate being viewed with the Volume Remaining display. This display will be in gallons or liters. As treated water is used, the Volume Remaining display will count down from a maximum value to zero or (---). Once this occurs, a regeneration cycle will be initiated at the Set Regeneration Time. Water flow through the valve is indicated by the Flow Indicator that will flash in direct relationship to flow rate.

Timer Behavior During Regeneration

In regeneration, the control will display a special regeneration display. In this display, the control will show the current regeneration step abbreviation the valve is advancing to or has reached and the time remaining in that step. The step abbreviation displayed will flash until the valve has completed driving into this regeneration step position. Once all regeneration steps have been completed, the valve will return to Service and resume normal operation.

Example Less than 6 minutes remaining in Regeneration Step Rapid Rinse

Pushing the

during a regeneration cycle will immediately advance the valve to the next cycle step position and

resume normal step timing.

Installation Instructions

Check your water hardness. Use test strips (Part # 2793828-20) to get an estimation of water hardness and contact your local distributor to use WaterGroup laboratory for complete water analysis free of cost and no obligation to you.

All government codes and regulations governing the installation of these devices must be observed.

If the ground from the electrical panel or breaker box to the water meter or underground copper pipe is tied to the copper water lines and these lines are cut during installation of the Noryl bypass valve and/or poly pipe, an approved grounding strap must be used between the two lines that have been cut in order to maintain continuity. The length of the grounding strap will depend upon the number of units being installed and/or the amount of copper pipe being replaced with plastic pipe. See Figure 1.

In all cases where metal pipe was originally used and is later interrupted by poly pipe or the Noryl bypass valve as in Figure 1 or by physical separation as in Figure 2, an approved ground clamp with no less than #6 copper conductor must be used for continuity, to maintain proper metallic pipe bonding.

NOTE: Check your local electrical code for the correct clamp.

Preparations

1. Determine the best location for your water softener, bearing in mind the location of your water supply lines, drain line and 120 volt AC electrical outlet. Subjecting the softener to freezing or temperatures above 43°C (110°F) will void the warranty.

2. Media Installation (When Necessary). Models including and higher than 1.5 CF of media are shipped with separate media in pails or boxes. Models lower than 1.5 CF of media come loaded with media and this step can be skipped for new installation.

e. Fill support bed (if supplied) first.

During the filling process, ensure the distributor tube stays on the bottom of the tank, reasonably centered. Remove the tape from the distributor once media is loaded. Whenever possible, fill the tank outdoors to avoid problems with dust. If filling indoors, a dust mask should be worn.



O-ring



f. Unplug the riser tube, carefully posi-

tion the valve over it and turn the valve into the threads in the fiberglass tank, tightening securely into tank. Note: Ensure that the internal O-ring in the valve fits securely over the riser tube. Silicone grease (part #

92360) or other food grade lubricant may be applied to the O-ring to ease installation of the riser tube.

DO NOT use petroleum based lubricants as they will cause swelling of O-ring seals.

Page 11

The softener or filter is now charged with softening resin.

g. It is recommended that the softener or filter tank now be completely filled with water (SLOWLY) to soak the resin or filtra-

tion media before startup. This will allow the media to absorb water as well as help displace any trapped air. This will reduce the chance of backwashing resin or filter media out of the tank during the initial backwash on startup.

3. Outside faucets used to water lawns and gardens should not supply softened water. A new water line is often required to

be connected to supply hard water to the inlet of the water softener and to the outside faucets.

Cut the water line between where it enters the house and before any lines that branch off to feed the hot water heater or other fixtures in the house and as near the desired location of the water softener as possible. Install a tee fitting on the feed end of the cut pipe, and an elbow fitting on the other end. Install piping from the tee to the inlet of the water softener and from the elbow to the outlet of the softener. To sever the water lines which branch off to feed any outside faucets, cut the branch lines approximately two inches from the fitting on the main water line. Install an elbow on the end of the pipe nearest the outside faucet and a cap on the end connected to the existing water line. Install piping from the tee installed on the inlet line to the water softener to the elbow installed on the pipe to the outside faucet. Following this procedure will result in all lines in the house, with the exception of the outside faucets, but including the water heater and therefore the hot water lines, being supplied with soft water.

Installation Steps:



1. Clamp Ring – The clamp ring connects the control valve to the tank and provide an easy way to disconnect tank during control valve servicing. Make sure that the clamp ring screw is tightened

The “Clamp Ring” should secure the valve with the top of the flange facing up. Please note “top” on the clamp ring.

4. Attach the bypass valve to the control valve (and yoke if plastic bypass is used). Connect the inlet and outlet of the water softener to the plumbing in the house. The control valve must not be submitted to temperatures above 43°C (110°F). When sweat fittings are used, to avoid damaging the control valve, solder the threaded copper adapters to the copper pipe and then, using Teflon tape, screw the assembly into the bypass valve.

6. The brine line is connected to the safety float assembly of the brine tank. Pull the 3/8” brine line through the hole in the back of the brine tank. Connect the brine line to the fitting on the side of the valve using the nut and ferrule. Tighten snugly. Remove the nut from the brine line of the valve and push the other end of the brine tube inside it. Make sure that the brass insert is snugged inside the brine tubing. The brine tubing should pass through both plastic

inserts of the black nut.



7. Overflow Connection (Optional): In the event of a malfunction, the brine TANK OVERFLOW will direct “overflow” to the drain instead of spilling on the floor. This fitting should be installed at the side of the cabinet or brine tank.

To connect the overflow line, drill the hole on the side of the tank, 2 to 3 inches below from the top of the brine tank. Insert overflow fitting (sold separately part # 33006) into tank and tighten with plastic thumb nut and gasket as shown. Attach length of 1/2-inch (1.3-cm) I.D. tubing (not supplied) to fitting and run to drain. Do not elevate overflow line higher than overflow fitting.

Do not tie into drain line of control unit. Overflow line must be a direct, separate line from overflow fitting to drain, sewer or tub. Allow an air gap as per drain line instructions

1a 1b

 

1a. Pour entire packet of Sani-System

Liquid Concentrate – Part # 50032 (24 packets) into the brine well. If no brine well is present, pour entire packet into bottom of brine tank when salt is nearly empty.

Sanitization can also achieved by the application of chlorine in the regeneration cycle of the conditioner. A liquid solution of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (commonly referred to as household bleach) is recommended as a suitable disinfectant. Use only unscented products. For every cubic foot of resin in the softener, pour approximately two (2) tablespoons of sodium hypochlorite into the brine well tube. The brine tank refill step of regeneration should add the correct amount of water to the brine tank. If not, the water can be added manually now. Press and hold the Allow softener to complete the Brine/Rinse cycle, then let the manual regeneration continue until the brine tank is refilled again with the correct amount of water.

Controller Behavior

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 programming is stored in memory permanently, eliminating the need for battery back-up power.

Meter Immediate Control

A meter immediate control measures water usage and regenerates the system as soon as the calculated system capacity is depleted. The control calculates the system capacity by dividing the unit capacity (typically expressed in grains/unit volume) by the feedwater hardness and subtracting the reserve. Meter Immediate systems generally do not use a reserve volume. However, in twin tank systems with soft-water regeneration, the reserve capacity should be set to the volume of water used during regeneration to prevent hard water break-through. A Meter Immediate control will also start a regeneration cycle at the programmed regeneration time if a number of days equal to the regeneration day override pass before water usage depletes the calculated system capacity.

Meter Delayed Control

A Meter Delayed Control measures water usage and regenerates the system at the programmed regeneration time after the calculated system capacity is depleted. As with Meter Immediate systems, the control calculates the system capacity by dividing the unit capacity by the feedwater hardness and subtracting the reserve. The reserve should be set to insure that the system delivers treated water between the time the system capacity is depleted and the actual regeneration time. A Meter Delayed control will also start a regeneration cycle at the programmed regeneration time if a number of days equal to the regeneration day override pass before water usage depletes the calculated system capacity.

Time Clock Delayed Control

A Time Clock Delayed Control regenerates the system on a timed interval. The control will initiate a regeneration cycle at the programmed regeneration time when the number of days since the last regeneration equals the regeneration day override value.

Day of the Week Control

This control regenerates the system on a weekly schedule. The schedule is defined in Master Programming by setting each day to either “off” or “on.” The control will initiates a regeneration cycle on days that have been set to “on” at the specified regeneration time.

Control Operation During a Power Failure

The SXT includes integral power backup. In the event of power failure, the control shifts into a power-saving mode. The control stops monitoring water usage, and the display and motor shut down, but it continues to keep track of the time and day for a minimum of 48 hours.

The system configuration settings are stored in a non-volatile memory and are stored indefinitely with or without line power. The Time of Day flashes when there has been a power failure. Press any button to stop the Time of Day from flashing.

If power fails while the unit is in regeneration, the control will save the current valve position before it shuts down. When power is restored, the control will resume the regeneration cycle from the point where power failed. Note that if power fails during a regeneration cycle, the valve will remain in it’s current position until power is restored. The valve system should include all required safety components to prevent overflows resulting from a power failure during regeneration.

The control will not start a new regeneration cycle without line power. If the valve misses a scheduled regeneration due to a power failure, it will queue a regeneration. Once power is restored, the control will initiate a regeneration cycle the next time that the Time of Day equals the programmed regeneration time. Typically, this means that the valve will regenerate one day after it was originally scheduled. If the treated water output is important and power interruptions are expected, the system should be setup with a sufficient reserve capacity to compensate for regeneration delays.

Page 21

During Regeneration

Automatic Bypass

The regeneration cycle lasts approximately 2 hours, after which soft water service will be restored. During regeneration, hard water is automatically bypassed for use in the household. Hot water should be used as little as possible during this time to prevent hard water from filling the water heater.

IMPORTANT: This is why the automatic regeneration is set for sometime during the night and manual regenerations should be

performed when little or no water will be used in the household.

New Sounds

You may notice new sounds as your water softener operates. The regeneration cycle lasts approximately 2-1/2 hours. During this time, you may hear water running intermittently to the drain.

Inlet

Manual Bypass (Figure 5A)

In case of an emergency such as an overflowing brine tank, you can isolate your water softener from the water supply using the bypass valve located at the back of the control. In normal operation the bypass is open with the ON/OFF knobs in line with the INLET and OUTLET pipes. To isolate the softener, simply rotate the knobs clockwise (as indicated by the word BYPASS and arrow) until they lock. You can use your water related fixtures and appliances as the water supply is bypassing the softener. However, the water you use will be hard. To resume soft water service, open the bypass valve by rotating the knobs counter-clockwise.

Stainless Steel Bypass (Figure 5B)

In normal operation the bypass lever is aligned with the inlet/outlet with the pointer on SERVICE. To isolate the softener or filter, rotate lever counter clockwise until it stops and pointer indicates unit is in bypass.

You can use your water related fixtures and appliances as the water supply is bypassing the softener and filter. However, the water you use will be hard or untreated. To resume treated water service, open the bypass valve by reversing the rotation of the lever.

Maintenance Instructions

Checking the Salt Level

Check the salt level monthly. Remove the lid from the cabinet or brine tank, make sure salt level is always above the brine level

NOTE: You should not be able to see water

Adding Salt

Use only clean salt labeled for water conditioner use, such as crystal, pellet, nugget, button or solar. The use of rock salt is discouraged because it contains insoluble silt and sand which build up in the brine tank and can cause problems with the system’s operation.

Add the salt directly to the tank, filling no higher than the top of the brine well.

Bridging

Humidity or the wrong type of salt may create a cavity between the water and the salt. This action, known as “bridging”, prevents the brine solution from being made, leading to your water supply being hard.

If you suspect salt bridging, carefully pound on the outside of the plastic brine tank or pour some warm water over the salt to break up the bridge. This should always be followed up by allowing the unit to use up any remaining salt and then thoroughly cleaning out the brine tank. Allow four hours to produce a brine solution, then manually regenerate the softener.

CAUTION! Liquid brine will irritate eyes, skin and open wounds - gently wash exposed area with fresh water. Keep children away from your water conditioner.

Care of Your Softener

To retain the attractive appearance of your new water softener, clean occasionally with a mild soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia or solvents. Never subject your softener to freezing or to temperatures above 43°C (110°F).

Please refer to the servicing section of this manual for step by step procedure. Not following the above will void all warranty on the control valve.

Resin Cleaner

An approved resin cleaner MUST be used on a regular basis if your water supply contains iron. The amount of resin cleaner and frequency of use is determined by the quantity of iron in your water (consult your local representative or follow the directions on the resin cleaner package).

2. Empty water and pull tube and wick through Feeder until slack is removed from inside. The outlet end tube and wick must be below the bottom level of the Res-Up® Feeder.

3. Drill two 1/4” holes in brine tank as shown.

4. Drill a 5/8” hole in the brine well cap.

5. Clip mounting bracket over feeder with “hooks” pointed up. Insert end of tube in the brine well cap and mounting bracket with the 1/4” holes in the brine tank, rotating feeder downward into position as shown in Figure 1.

6. Fill Feeder with Res-Up® Cleaner to “Fill Line” on label.

7. Replace cover on Feeder and automatic feeding will occur in a few hours.

5/8" hole in brine well cap

1/4” Holes

Res-Up Feeders attach to your brine tank and automatically dispense the Res-Up cleaner into the brine solution where it cleans the resin during the regeneration cycle.

The feeder hooks onto the tube inside your brine tank and you just pour some chemical in it and your water softener should last significanly longer. A res-up feeder is essential if your raw water contains measurable amounts of iron.

Res-up Feeder Bottle (Chemical sold Separately)

The 12 cc feeder (Part # 33010) is for softeners up to 64,000 grains (2 ft3 of resin) .

The 30 cc feeder (Part # 33018) is for larger softeners over 64,000 grains.
