2.3. Hazards

All the safety and protection instructions contained in this document must be observed in order to avoid temporary or permanent injury, damage to property or environmental pollution. At the same time, any other legal regulations, accident prevention and environmental protection measures, as well as any recognized technical regulations relating to appropriate and risk-free methods of working which apply in the country and place of use of the device must be adhered to.
Any non-observation of the safety and protection rules, as well as any existing legal and technical regulations, will result in a risk of temporary or permanent injury, damage to property or environmental pollution.

2.3.1. Personnel

Only qualified and professional personnel, based on their training, experience and instruction as well as their knowledge of the regulations, the safety rules and operations performed, are authorized to carry out necessary work.

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 (230V).
• 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 objects themselves.

Assembly
• Assemble only with components which are in accordance with the drinking water standards (DM 174, ACS, WRAS, KTW, etc...).
• 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.
Note
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.
Note
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 odour problems and water contamination.
• It is therefore strongly recommended to sanitize the products. See 7.2. Sanitization, page 33.
• Maximum cleanliness is recommended during the assembly and installation.
• For disinfection, use Sodium or Calcium Hypochlorite and perform a manual regeneration.

3.1.1. Performance flow rate characteristics

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

3.4. System regeneration cycle (8-cycles operation)

Service (downflow) — cycle C0
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 against by sodium ions. The water is conditioned as it passes through the resin bed.
Backwash (upflow) — 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 are flushed to the drain, while the media bed is remixed.
Brine draw (downflow) & slow rinse — cycle 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 draw finishes, and then the slow rinse phase starts.
Repressurization cycle — cycle C3
This cycle allows the air and water to hydraulically balance in the valve before continuing the regeneration.
Fast rinse (downflow) — cycle C4
The controller 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 recompacted.
2nd Backwash (upflow) — cycle C5
2nd Fast rinse (downflow) — cycle C6
Brine refill — cycle C7
Water is directed to the brine tank at a rate controlled by the refill flow controller, to prepare brine for the next regeneration. During brine refill cycle, treated water is already available at the valve outlet.

4.2. Cycle time calculation

The 600 series controller will automatically set the cycle time based on the program or so called unit number selected when programming the system (see 6.6. System selection, page 30). Make sure the programmed unit# is corresponding to your actual system and valve configuration.

4.3. Injection flow rates

The following graphs represent the injectors flow rate as a function of the inlet pressure for the different injector sizes.

4.4. Salt amount definition

The salt amount is set in kilograms of salt use for each regeneration. This setting will greatly influence the system. Make sure this setting is aligned with your actual system size and unit# programmed.
