GENERAL INSTALLATION AND SERVICE WARNINGS

The control valve, ttings and/or bypass are designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments but are not designed to support

the weight of a system or the plumbing.

HYDROCARBONS SUCH AS KEROSENE, BENZENE, GASOLINE, ETC., MAY DAMAGE PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN O-RINGS OR
PLASTIC COMPONENTS. EXPOSURE TO SUCH HYDROCARBONS MAY CAUSE THE PRODUCTS TO LEAK. DO NOT USE THE
PRODUCT(S) CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT ON WATER SUPPLIES THAT CONTAIN HYDROCARBONS SUCH AS KEROSENE,
BENZENE, GASOLINE, ETC.

THIS WATER METER SHOULD NOT BE USED AS THE PRIMARY MONITORING DEVICE FOR CRITICAL OR HEALTH EFFECT
APPLICATIONS

Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere. A silicone lubricant may be used on black o-rings but

is not necessary.

The nuts and caps are designed to be unscrewed or tightened by hand or with the special plastic wrench. If necessary a pliers can be
used to unscrew the nut or cap. Do not use a pipe wrench to tighten or loosen nuts or caps. Do not place a screwdriver in the slots on
caps and/or tap with a hammer.

Do not use pipe dope or other sealants on threads. Use Teon tape on the threaded inlet, outlet and drain ttings. Teon tape is not

necessary on the nut connection or caps because of o-ring seals.

After completing any valve maintenance involving the drive assembly or the drive cap assembly and pistons unplug power source jack
from the printed circuit board (black wire) and plug back in or press and hold NEXT and REGEN buttons for 3 seconds.

This resets the electronics and establishes the service piston position. The display should ash all wording, then ash the software version

and then reset the valve to the service position.

All plumbing should be done in accordance with local plumbing codes. The pipe size for the drain line should be a minimum of ½”.

Backwash ow rates in excess of 7 gpm or length in excess of 20’ require ¾” drain line.

Solder joints near the drain must be done prior to connecting the drain line ow control tting. Leave at least 6” between the drain line
control tting and solder joints when soldering pipes that are connected on the drain line control tting. Failure to do this could cause
interior damage to the drain line ow control tting.

When assembling the installation tting package (inlet and outlet), connect the tting to the plumbing system rst and then attach the nut,

split ring and o-ring. Heat from soldering or solvent cements may damage the nut, split ring or o-ring. Solder joints should be cool and
solvent cements should be set before installing the nut, split ring and o-ring. Avoid getting primer and solvent cement on any part of the
o-rings, split rings, bypass valve or control valve.

Plug into an electrical outlet. Note: All electrical connections must be connected according to local codes. (Be certain the outlet is
uninterrupted.)

Install grounding strap on metal pipes.

This glass lled Noryl (or equivalent) fully automatic control valve is designed as the primary control center to direct and regulate all cycles
of a water softener or lter. The control valve can be set to regenerate on demand (consumption of a predetermined amount of water) and/
or as a time clock (passage of a particular number of days). The control valve can be set so that a softener can meet the Water Quality
Association (WQA) Standard S100 or NSF/ANSI Standard 44 efciency rating.

It is not recommended to change control valves from downow to upow brining or vice versa in the eld. The valve bodies
for downow and upow are unique to the regeneration type and should not be interchanged. A mismatch of valve body and
regeneration piston will result in hard water bypass during service.

The control valve is compatible with a variety of regenerants and resin cleaners. The control valve is capable of routing the ow of water
in the necessary paths to regenerate or backwash water treatment systems. The injector regulates the ow of brine or other regenerants.
The control valve regulates the ow rates for backwashing, rinsing, and the replenishing of treated water into a regenerant tank, when

applicable. The control valve uses no traditional fasteners (e.g. screws); instead clips, threaded caps and nuts and snap type latches are

used. Caps and nuts only need to be rmly hand tightened because radial seals are used. Tools required to service the valve include one

small blade screw driver, one large blade screw driver, pliers and a pair of hands. A plastic wrench is available which eliminates the need

for screwdrivers and pliers. Disassembly for servicing takes much less time than comparable products currently on the market. Control
valve installation is made easy because the distributor tube can be cut ½” above to ½” below the top of tank thread. The distributor tube
is held in place by an o-ring seal and the control valve also has a bayonet lock feature for upper distributor baskets.

The AC adapter comes with a 15 foot power cord and is designed for use with the control valve. The AC adapter is for dry location use
only. The control valve remembers all settings until the battery power is depleted if the power goes out. After the battery power is depleted,
the only item that needs to be reset is the time of day; other values are permanently stored in the nonvolatile memory. The control valve
battery is not rechargeable but is replaceable.

Allow one foot of clearance to service the valve.

PRE-INSTALLATION REVIEW

WATER QUALITY: If sand or sediment is present in the water supply, a sediment lter should be installed ahead of the water softener.

Your water softener has been designed to adequately reduce hardness from levels up to 100 grains per gallon. Ferrous bicarbonate iron

levels up to 0.5 ppm can also be reduced. This is iron that is dissolved in water and not visible to the eye in a freshly drawn sample. After

standing in contact with air, the ferrous iron will become oxidized to the ferric state and start to precipitate as a reddish brown oc. It can

be seen and may cause discolored water. Air must not come in contact with water until after it has passed through the water softener. In

some cases, additional treatment equipment may be needed to treat water having special characteristics, such as: ferric hydroxide iron,
iron bacteria, low pH, tastes and odors, etc. Consult your dealer if you have any questions. This water softener is not to be used for

treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after treatment.

WATER PRESSURE: A minimum of 20 pounds of water pressure (psi) is required for regeneration. Maximum 100 psi. CAUTION: the
softener cannot be subject to a vacuum due to loss of pressure (such as a water main break or submersible well pump check valve failure).

WATER TEMPERATURE: The range of water temperature is 40°F to 100°F. DO NOT install any water softener with less than 10 feet of
piping between its outlet and the inlet of a water heater.

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE: DO NOT locate softener where it or its connections (including the drain and overow lines) will ever be

subject to room temperatures under 33°F.

ELECTRICITY: An uninterrupted 120 volt 60Hz source is required. Make sure electrical source is not on a timer or switch. All electrical
connections must be connected according to local codes. The plug-in transformer is for dry locations only. Surge protection is recommended
with all electrical connections.

DRAIN: All plumbing should be done in accordance with local plumbing codes. The distance between the drain and the water softener
should be as short as possible. The pipe size for the drain line should be a minimum of 1/2” (inside diameter of pipe).

SOFTENING: It is recommended that the softener be installed to soften both the hot and cold water supply. A separate hard water faucet

may be plumbed for drinking purposes if desired. Outside faucets should be left on hard water.

BYPASS: A bypass valve should be installed so that water will be available if it should be necessary to shut off the pressure in order to
service the softener.

PAGE 4

BYPASS VALVE

The bypass valve is typically used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system’s water pressure in order to perform control
valve repairs or maintenance. The X-Factor bypass valve is particularly unique in the water treatment industry due to its versatility
and state of the art design features. The 1” full ow bypass valve incorporates four positions, including a diagnostic position that
allows service personal to work on a pressurized system while still providing untreated bypassed water to the facility or residence. Its

completely non-metallic, all-plastic design allows for easy access and serviceability without the need for tools.

The bypass body and rotors are glass lled Noryl® (or equivalent) and the nuts and caps are glass lled polypropylene. All seals are

self-lubricating EPDM to help prevent valve seizing after long periods of non-use. Internal o-rings can easily be replaced if service is

required.

The bypass consists of two interchangeable plug valves that are operated independently by red arrow-shaped handles. The handles

identify the ow direction of the water. The plug valves enable the bypass valve to operate in four positions.

OPERATION:

1. Normal Operation Position: The inlet and outlet

handles point in the direction of ow indicated by the
engraved arrows on the control valve. Water ows

through the control valve during normal operation and
this position also allows the control valve to isolate the
media bed during the regeneration cycle. (see gure

1)

2. Bypass Position: The inlet and outlet handles
point to the center of the bypass, the control valve
is isolated from the water pressure contained in the
plumbing system. Untreated water is supplied to the
plumbing system. (see gure 2)

3. Diagnostic Position: The inlet handle points in

the direction of ow and the outlet handle points to

the center of bypass valve, system water pressure is
allowed to the control valve and the plumbing system
while not allowing water to exit from the control valve
to the plumbing. (see gure 3)

4. Shut Off Position: The inlet handle points to the
center of the bypass valve and the outlet handle

points in the direction of ow, the water is shut off

to the plumbing system. If water is available on the
outlet side of the softener it is an indication of water
bypass around the system (i.e. a plumbing connection
somewhere in the building bypasses the system).

(see gure 4)

The working parts of the bypass valve are the rotor assemblies that are contained under the bypass valve caps. Before working on the
rotors, make sure the system is depressurized. Turn the red arrow shaped handles towards the center of the bypass valve and back

several times to ensure rotor is turning freely.

The nuts and caps are designed to be unscrewed or tightened by hand. If necessary a pliers can be used to unscrew the nut or cap. Do
not use a pipe wrench to tighten or loosen nuts or caps. Do not place screwdriver in slots on caps and/or tap with a hammer. To access
the rotor, unscrew the cap and lift the cap, rotor and handle out as one unit. Twisting the unit as you pull it out will help to remove it
more easily. There are three o-rings: one under the rotor cap, one on the rotor stem and the rotor seal. Replace worn o-rings. Clean
rotor. Reinstall rotor.

When reinstalling the red arrow handles be sure that:

1. The handle pointers are lined up with the control valve body arrows, and the rotor seal o-ring and retainer on both rotors face to the
right when being viewed from the front of the control valve; or

2. Arrows point toward each other in the bypass position.

Since the handles can be pulled off, they could be accidentally reinstalled 180° from their correct orientation. To install the red arrow

handles correctly, keep the handles pointed in the same direction as the arrows engraved on the control valve body while tightening the

bypass valve caps.

(All electrical & plumbing should be done in accordance to all local codes)

1. Place the softener where you want to install it, making sure it is on
a clean, level and rm base.

2. Do all necessary plumbing (inlet to inlet, outlet to outlet, and drain

line to drain). The control valve, ttings and/or bypass are designed to

accommodate minor plumbing misalignments but are not designed to
support the weight of a system or the plumbing.

3. When assembling the installation tting package (inlet and outlet),
connect the tting to the plumbing system rst and then attach the

nut, split ring and o-ring. Heat from soldering or solvent cements may
damage the nut, split ring or o-ring. Solder joint should be cool and
solvent cements should be set before installing the nut, split ring and
o-ring. Avoid getting primer and solvent cement on any part of the
o-rings, split rings, bypass valve or control valve.

4. A jumper ground wire should be installed between the inlet
and outlet pipe whenever the metallic continuity of a water
distribution piping system is interrupted. Install grounding strap
on metal pipes.

POLYTUBE

5. The drain connection may be made using either 5/8” polytube (see below) or a 3/4” female adapter. The polytube insert

is shipped attached to the drain line elbow’s locking clip. Press the insert into the drain line tubing (tubing not provided).
Loosen the nut of the drain line elbow. Press the 5/8” polytube with insert into the drain line elbow until it seats on the back
of the tting. Tighten the nut. If soldering, joints near the drain must be done prior to connecting the drain line ow control
tting. Leave at least 6” between the drain line control tting and solder joints when soldering pipes that are connected on
the drain line control tting. Failure to do this could cause interior damage to the drain line ow control tting. Never insert a

drain line into a drain, sewer line, or trap. Always allow an air gap between the drain line and the wastewater to prevent the

possibility of sewage being back-siphoned into the softener.

7. The brine rell ow control assembly is installed in an easy to access rell elbow located on top of the control valve. The
rell ow control assembly is attached to the control valve with a locking clip. The locking clip allows the elbow to rotate 270
degrees so the outlet can be oriented towards the brine tank.

8. Connect the brine line polytubing found with the brine tank to the brine connection on the control valve. The control valve
has a standard rell elbow to which a 3/8” exible tube can be connected, see below. Press the polytube into the brine elbow
tting. Make sure the oor is clean beneath the brine tank and that it is level and smooth.

POLYTUBE

9. A 1/2” (inside diameter, not provided) gravity drain line should be connected to the overow tting on the side of the brine
tank. This overow is in case of a malfunction in the brine shut off. If the unit is installed where water may ow in the event of
an overow and cause water damage, connect a length of exible tubing and run to a drain below the level of the overow.

(Do not connect the tubing to the drain line on the control valve. Do not run tubing above overow height at any
point.)

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

When servicing the valve, water may leak

from the valve. Water from the valve may
create a slip hazard. Clean up water spills.

Disconnect from electrical power prior to
servicing the valve.

DRIVE ASSEMBLY:

Remove the valve cover to access the drive assembly.

Disconnect the power source plug (black wire) from the PC board prior to disconnecting the motor or water meter plugs from the PC
board. The power source plug connects to the four-pin jack. The motor plug connects to the two-pin jack on the left-hand side of the PC
board. The water meter plug (gray wire) connects to the three-pin jack on the far right-hand side of the PC board.

The PC board can be removed separately from the drive bracket but it is not recommended. Do not attempt to remove the display panel
from the PC board. Handle the board by the edges. To remove the PC board from the drive bracket, unplug the power, water meter and
motor plugs from the PC board. Lift the middle latch along the top of the drive bracket while pulling outward on the top of the PC board.
The drive bracket has two plastic pins that t into the holes on the lower edge of the PC board. Once the PC board is tilted about 45°
from the drive bracket it can be lifted off of these pins. To reinstall the PC board, position the lower edge of the PC board so that the

holes in the PC board line up with the plastic pins. Push the top of the PC board towards the valve until it snaps under the middle latch,
weave the power and water meter wires into the holders and reconnect the motor, water meter and power plugs.

The drive bracket must be removed to access the drive cap assembly and pistons or the drive gear cover. It is not necessary to remove
the PC board from the drive bracket to remove the drive bracket. To remove the drive bracket start by removing the plugs for the power
source and the water meter. Unweave the wires from the side holders. Two tabs on the top of the drive back plate hold the drive bracket
in place. Simultaneously lift the two tabs and gently ease the top of the drive bracket forward. The lower edge of the drive bracket has
two notches that rest on the drive back plate. Lift up and outward on the drive bracket to disengage the notches.

To reassemble, seat the bottom of the drive bracket so the notches are engaged at the bottom of the drive back plate. Push the top of
the drive bracket toward the two latches. The drive bracket may have to be lifted slightly to let the threaded piston rod pass through
the hole in the drive bracket. Maintain a slight engaging force on top of the drive bracket while deecting the bracket slightly to the left
by pressing on the side of the upper right corner. This helps the drive gears mesh with the drive cap assembly. The drive bracket is
properly seated when it snaps under the latches on the drive back plate. If resistance is felt before latching, then notches are not fully
engaged, the piston rod is not in hole, the wires are jammed between the drive bracket and drive back plate, or the gear is not engaging

the drive cap assembly.

To inspect the drive gears, the drive gear cover needs to be removed. Before trying to remove the gear cover, the drive bracket must
be removed from the drive back plate. (Refer to the instructions above regarding removing the drive bracket from the drive back plate.
The drive gear cover can be removed from the drive bracket without removing the motor or the PC board.) The drive gear cover is held
in place on the drive bracket by three clips. The largest of the three clips is always orientated to the bottom of the drive bracket. With

the PC board facing up, push in and down on the large clip on the drive gear cover. Handle the cover and the gears carefully so that the
gears do not fall off the pegs in the cover.

Replace broken or damaged drive gears. Do not lubricate any of the gears. Avoid getting any foreign matter on the reective coating

because dirt or oils may interfere with pulse counting.

The drive gear cover only ts on one way, with the large clip orientated towards the bottom. If all three clips are outside of the gear
shroud on the drive bracket the drive gear cover slips easily into place.

The drive bracket does not need to be removed from the drive plate if the motor needs to be removed. To remove the motor, disconnect
the power and motor plugs from the jacks on the PC board. Move the spring clip loop to the right and hold. Rotate the motor at least a
¼ turn in either direction so the wires are vertical (up & down) before gently pulling on the wire connectors to remove the motor. Pulling
directly on the wires without rotating the motor may break the wires off the motor.

Replace the motor if necessary. Do not lubricate the motor or the gears. To reinstall the motor, move the spring clip loop to the right and
hold. Gently turn the motor while inserting so that the gear on the motor meshes with the gears under the drive gear cover. Release the
spring clip loop and continue to rotate the motor until the wires are horizontal and the motor housing engages the small plastic bulge

inside the drive bracket motor retainer. Reconnect the motor plug to the two-pronged jack on the lower left side of the PC board. If the

motor will not easily engage with the drive gears when reinstalling, lift and slightly rotate the motor before reinserting. Reconnect the
power plug.

Replace the valve cover. After completing any valve maintenance involving the drive assembly or the drive cap assembly and pistons

unplug power source jack from the printed circuit board (black wire) and plug back in or press and hold NEXT and REGEN buttons for 3

seconds.

This resets the electronics and establishes the service piston position. The display should ash all wording, then ash the software

version and then reset the valve to the service position.

PAGE 24

DRIVE CAP ASSEMBLY, MAIN PISTON AND REGENERANT PISTON:

The drive assembly must be removed to access the drive cap assembly. The drive cap assembly must be removed to access the
piston(s). The drive cap assembly is threaded into the control valve body and seals with an o-ring. To remove the drive cap assembly

use the special plastic wrench or insert a ¼” to ½” at blade screwdriver into one of the slots around the top 2” of the drive cap
assembly so it engages the notches molded into the drive back plate around the top 2” of the piston cavity. See below. The notches are
visible through the holes. Lever the screwdriver so the drive cap assembly turns counter clockwise. Once loosened unscrew the drive

cap assembly by hand and pull straight out.

The drive cap assembly contains the drive cap, the main drive gear, drive cap spline, piston rod and various other parts that should not

be dissembled in the eld. The only replaceable part on the drive cap assembly is the o-ring. Attached to the drive cap assembly is the

main piston and if a regenerant is used, a regenerant piston.

The regenerant piston (the small diameter one behind the main piston) is removed from the main piston by pressing sideways and

unsnapping it from its latch. Chemically clean in dilute sodium bisulte or vinegar, or replace the regenerant piston if needed. To remove

the main piston fully extend the piston rod and then unsnap the main piston from its latch by pressing on the side with the number.

Chemically clean in dilute sodium bisulte or vinegar, or replace the main piston.

Reattach the main piston to the drive cap assembly. Reattach the regenerant piston (if needed) to the main piston. Reinsert the drive

cap assembly and piston into the spacer stack assembly and hand tighten the drive cap assembly. Continue to tighten the drive cap
assembly using a screwdriver as a ratchet until the black o-ring on the spacer stack assembly is no longer visible through the drain port.
Excessive force can break the notches molded into the drive back plate. Make certain that the main drive gear still turns freely.

The exact position of the piston is not important as long as the main drive gear turns freely. Reattach the drive assembly to the control
valve and connect all plugs. After completing any valve maintenance involving the drive assembly or the drive cap assembly and

pistons unplug power source jack from the printed circuit board (black wire) and plug back in or press and hold NEXT and REGEN

buttons for 3 seconds.

This resets the electronics and establishes the service piston position. The display should ash all wording, then ash the software

version and then reset the valve to the service position.

REFILL FLOW CONTROL ASSEMBLY:

To clean or replace the rell ow control, pull out the elbow-locking clip and then pull straight up on the elbow. Replace the elbow
locking clip in the slot so that it is not misplaced. Twist to remove the white ow control retainer. The ow control can be removed by
prying upward through the side slots of the retainer with a small at blade screwdriver.

Chemically clean the ow control or the white ow control retainer using dilute sodium bisulte or vinegar. Do not use a wire brush. If
necessary, replace the ow control, o-ring on the ow control retainer, or the o-ring on the elbow.

Reseat the ow control so the rounded end is visible in the ow control. Reseat the white ow control retainer by pushing the retainer
into the elbow until the o-ring seats. Remove locking clip, push down on elbow to reseat and insert locking clip.

Do not use Vaseline, oils, or other unacceptable lubricants on o-rings. A silicone lubricant may be used on the o-ring on the elbow or the
white retainer.

PAGE 25

SPACER STACK ASSEMBLY:

To access the spacer stack assembly remove the drive assembly, drive cap assembly and piston. The spacer stack assembly can be
removed easily without tools by using thumb and forenger. Inspect the black o-rings and clear lip seals for wear or damage. Replace
the entire stack if necessary. Do not disassemble the stack.

The spacer stack assembly may be chemically cleaned (dilute sodium bisulte or vinegar) or wiped with a soft cloth.

The spacer stack assembly can be pushed in to the control valve body bore by hand. Since the spacer stack assembly can be

compressed it is easier to use a blunt object (5/8” to 1-1/8” in diameter) to push the center of the assembly into the control valve body.

The assembly is properly seated when at least four threads are exposed (approximately 5/8”). Do not force the spacer stack assembly
in. The control valve body bore interior can be lubricated with silicone to allow for easy insertion of the entire stack.

Reattach the drive cap assembly and piston(s) and the drive assembly.

After completing any valve maintenance involving the drive assembly or the drive cap assembly and pistons unplug power source jack
from the printed circuit board (black wire) and plug back in or press and hold NEXT and REGEN buttons for 3 seconds.
This resets the electronics and establishes the service piston position. The display should ash all wording, then ash the software

version and then reset the valve to the service position.

INJECTOR CAP, SCREEN, INJECTOR PLUG AND INJECTOR:

Unscrew the injector cap and lift off. Loosen cap with special plastic wrench or pliers if necessary. Attached to the injector cap is a
screen. Remove the screen and clean if fouled.

The plug and/or injector can be pried out with a small screwdriver. The plug can be wiped clean. If the plug leaks replace the entire
plug. The injector consists of a throat and a nozzle. Chemically clean the injector with vinegar or sodium bisulte. The holes can be
blown out with air. Both pieces have small diameter holes that control the ow rates of water to insure that the proper concentration

of regenerant is used. Sharp objects, which can score the plastic, should not be used to clean the injector. Scoring the injector or
increasing the diameter of the hole could change the operating parameters of the injector.

Push the plug(s) and/or injectors rmly in place, replace the screen and hand tighten the injector cap.

WATER METER:

The water meter assembly is connected to the PC board by a wire. If the entire water meter assembly is to be replaced, remove the
control valve cover and disconnect the power source and water meter plugs from the PC board. Unlatch the drive assembly and lean it

forward. Unthread the water meter wire from the side of the drive assembly and through the drive back plate. To reinstall, rethread the
water meter wire through the drive back plate and the side of the drive assembly. Reattach the drive assembly and the water meter and

power plugs.

THIS WATER METER SHOULD NOT BE USED AS THE PRIMARY MONITORING DEVICE FOR CRITICAL OR HEALTH EFFECT
APPLICATIONS.

OPERATING PRESSURES: 20 PSI MINIMUM / 125 PSI MAXIMUM • OPERATING TEMPERATURES: 40°F MINIMUM / 110°F

MAXIMUM

If no water meter wire is visible, then a plug is installed, not a water meter.

The water meter wire does not need to be removed from the PC board if the water meter is only being inspected and cleaned. To
remove the water meter assembly, unscrew the meter cap on the left side of the control valve. Pliers may be used to unscrew the nut if
necessary.

With the nut removed, a slot at the top of the water meter is visible. Twist a at blade screwdriver in the slot between the control valve

body and the meter. When the meter is part way out it is easy to remove the water meter from the housing. Once the water meter is
removed from the control valve body, gently pull forward on the turbine to remove it from the shaft. Do not use a wire brush to clean the

turbine. Wipe with a clean cloth or chemically clean in dilute sodium bisulte or vinegar. The turbine can be immersed in the chemical.

Do not immerse electronics. If the turbine is scored or damaged or the bearings on the turbine are worn, replace the turbine.

Do not lubricate the turbine shaft. The turbine shaft bearings are prelubricated. Do not use Vaseline, oils, or other unacceptable

lubricants on the o-ring. A silicone lubricant may be used on the black o-ring.

Snap the turbine on the shaft and reinsert the water meter into the side slot. Hand tighten the nut. Do not use a pipe wrench to tighten
nut.
