SYSTEM INFORMATION POWER REQUIREMENTS The computer board receives power from an external wall-mount transformer, supplied with each system. Voltage: The voltage supplied to the computer board is 24V AC. Frequency: The line frequency is 50 Hz or 60 Hz. WATER PRESSURE A minimum of 20 pounds of water pressure is required for proper operation of the system. The stated operating pressure range is 20 psi - 120 psi (138 kPa - 828 kPa).
MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS SALT RECOMMENDATIONS Two kinds of salt are recommended: 1. Block Salt: Water conditioner block salt is reasonably priced, low in impurities and will not cake in the salt container. Block Salt is pressed into the shape of a cattle block. 2. Solar Salt: Solar Salt is 98% pure salt, reasonably priced and low in impurities. Solar Salt is in the shape of pellets.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • To prevent accident or injury, do not hoist the unit over your shoulder. Use a hand truck to transport the unit. Note: Do not lay the unit on its side during transportation and/or installation. • Wear safety glasses and work gloves during installation and service. 2. TEST THE WATER HARDNESS • The test strip provided is for testing the water hardness after the installation is complete to ensure the system is functioning properly and for periodic testing.
As a last resort, install a check valve. If the check valve causes “water hammer”, install a water hammer suppressor. • Connect the raw water pipe to the INLET pipe connection of the bypass valve. When looking at the front of the unit, the inlet is the pipe connection on the LEFT side of the valve. • Connect the treated water pipe to the OUTLET pipe connection of the bypass valve. When looking at the front of the unit, the outlet is the pipe connection on the RIGHT side of the valve.
Special attention for situations where a Filter and a Tannin System are installed together: When a whole house filter and a Tannin System are installed side by side, the preferred approach is to run a separate drain line from each unit all the way to the point of termination. If this is not done, there is the potential for drain water from the filter to back feed through the Tannin System and overfill the brine tank, especially when drain lines are run overhead.
CONTROL INFORMATION POWER ON LED A green LED is ON when power is applied to the control and the microprocessor is operating properly. SERVICE REQUIRED If the message “For Service Call” or “Service Required” displays in the window of the control without showing the time of day, the control valve has encountered a problem, such as failure to reach the proper position during regeneration. The valve, the motor assembly, and board must be checked to diagnose and fix this problem.
HOW TO PROGRAM THE INSTALLER’S LEVEL KEY BUTTONS: SCROLL BUTTON UP ARROW POWER DOWN ARROW To begin, verify that the control is in the Service Mode. Time of Day GL Remaining • Press the DOWN ARROW and hold it for 5 seconds; the control will display: System Check • Within 10 seconds, enter the following key sequence: DOWN ARROW DOWN ARROW SCROLL BUTTON DOWN ARROW The control is now in the Installer’s Level. Use the SCROLL BUTTON to advance through the different settings.
3. SALT LEVEL The control will display: Salt Level: Med • Press the UP or DOWN ARROW to select Low, Medium, or High. Medium is a good setting for most circumstances. For small families and low hardness, Low will provide greater salt efficiency. For large families and high hardness, High will provide the most capacity. Press the SCOLL BUTTON to advance to the next setting. 4.
ADVANCED MENU 1. RESET AVERAGE The control will display: Reset Average No • If you want to reset the average daily volume, press the UP or DOWN ARROW to select YES. •If YES is selected, the control will reset the average volume per day to 25 % of the capacity. Press the SCROLL BUTTON to advance to the next setting. 2. RESERVE CAPACITY The control will display: Rsrv: Variable • The reserve capacity will be calculated automatically, based on the registered daily water consumption.
Press the SCROLL BUTTON to advance to the next setting. 5. CYCLE 1 - BACKWASH The control will display: Backwash: 10 min 6. CYCLE 2 - BRINE/SLOW RINSE The control will display: BRN/RNS: 74 min Press the Up or Down ARROW to change the length of the brine/slow rinse cycle. The minimum length is preselected based on unit size and salt level, and cannot be reduced. The maximum setting is 99 minutes. Press Down Arrow to exit Installer’s Mode.
UNDERSTANDING THE DIAGNOSTIC LEVEL To begin, verify that the control is in the Service Mode. Time of Day GL Remaining • Press the UP ARROW and hold it for 5 seconds; the control will display: Regen _ Days Ago The control is now in the Diagnostic Level. Use the SCROLL BUTTON to advance to each diagnostic. If no button is pressed within 5 minutes, the display will return to the Service Mode.
SYSTEM START UP INSTRUCTIONS 1. Confirm the system is plumbed in correctly: inlet on left, outlet on right. 2. DO NOT add salt yet. If you made any mistakes, make the necessary corrections before continuing with the startup procedure. 3. When turning the water back on to the house, leave system in bypass mode. Then turn water on to house and check for leaks. Run the cold water in bathtub to flush debris and air from lines. (Bathtubs do not have aerators that may plug with debris.) 4.
