SECTION 1: BEFORE INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: Read and follow all instructions before installation. Failure to do so may cause physical harm and/
or property damage. Failure to follow instructions may result in voidance of warranty.
ELECTRICAL
There are no user-serviceable parts in the AC adapter, motor, or controller. In the event of a failure, these should be replaced.
1) All electrical connections must be completed according to local codes.
2) Use only the power AC adapter that is supplied.
3) The power outlet must be grounded.
4) To disconnect power, unplug the AC adapter from its power source.
MECHANICAL
1) Do not use petroleum based lubricants such as vaseline, oils, or hydrocarbon based lubricants. Use only
100% silicone lubricants.
2) All plastic connections should be hand tightened. Thread tape may be used on connections that do not use
an o-ring seal. Do not use pliers or pipe wrenches.
3) All plumbing must be completed according to local codes.
4) Soldering near the drain line should be done before connecting the drain line to the valve. Excessive heat will
cause interior damage to the valve.
5) Observe drain line requirements.
6) Do not use lead-based solder for sweat solder connections.
7) The drain line must be a minimum of 1/2 inch diameter. Use 3/4 inch pipe if the backwash fl ow rate is greater
than 7 gpm (26.5 lpm) or the pipe length is greater than 20 ft (6 m).
8) Do not support the weight of the system on the control valve fi ttings, plumbing or the bypass.
9) It is not recommended to use sealants on the threads. Use thread tap on the threads of the 1 inch NPT elbow,
the drain line connections, and other NPT threads.
GENERAL
1) Observe all warnings that appear in this manual.
2) Keep the media tank in the upright position. Do not turn upside down or drop. Turning the tank upside down
will cause media to enter the valve.
3) Operating temperature is between 34°F (1°C) and 100°F (38°C).
4) Working water pressure range is 20 - 100 psi.
