Control Valve Regeneration Sequence
The regeneration cycle goes through 3 steps.
1. Backwash (minimum 30 psi inlet pressure required): During the backwash cycle, water
flows upwards through the bed, expanding the media and carrying any contaminants trapped
within it to the drain.
2. Rapid Rinse: During the rapid rinse cycle, water flows downwards through the bed, settling
the media and carrying any precipitated contaminants trapped within it to the drain.
3. In-Service Position: The unit then returns to the In-Service position. While this happens
water continues to enter the tank.
CAUTION!
Do not use where the water is
microbiologically unsafe or with
water of unknown quality with-
out adequate disinfection before
or after the unit.
