System Operation

Treated Water (Downflow)

Untreated water is conditioned as it flows through the resin bed and up the riser.

Backwash (Upflow) – Cycle C1

Flow is reversed by the control valve, directed down the riser, up through the resin bed and sent to drain. The bed is expanded and debris is flushed to the drain.

Regenerant Draw (Downflow) – Cycle C2a

Water passes through the injector and regenerant is drawn from the regenerant tank. The regenerant is directed to the resin bed. The hardness ions are displaced by sodium ions. Regenerant draw is completed when the air check closes.

Slow Rinse (Downflow) – Cycle C3a

Water flow moves the regenerant through the resin at a specific rate and rinses to the drain. The resin is regenerated.

Repressurization – Cycle C4

Pressure is balanced in the valve before continuing the regeneration.

Fast Rinse (Downflow) - Cycle C5

Water passes through the resin bed and up through the riser to drain. All remaining regenerant residual is rinsed from the resin bed.

2nd Backwash (Upflow) - Cycle C6

Flow is identical to C1 Backwash. The resin is reclassified.

2nd Rinse (Downflow) - Cycle C7

Flow is identical to C5 Fast Rinse. The resin bed is rinsed to quality.

Regenerant Refill – Cycle C8

Water is directed to the regenerant tank to create regenerant for the next regeneration.
