Bypass Assembly Cont.

90262 Bypass	Seals the left/right Piston opening on the Housing (90246). The opening is sealed with an O-Ring
End Cap—Left;	used as an axial or “face” seal. The O-Ring sits in a groove in the End Cap. This groove must be free
90263 Bypass	of defects such as pits or scratches and also free of debris. When assembling the End Cap to the
End Cap—Right	Housing, care should be taken to make sure that the O-Ring stays in the groove in the End Cap. If
	misaligned, the O-Ring can become pinched and leak. On the Left End Cap is the Piston Axle, a 1/4"
	square shaft that acts as a guide/slide and anti-turning mechanism for the Bypass Piston. On the
	Right End Cap is the guide/bushing for the Bypass Piston Drive Shaft (90218). There is an O-Ring
	seal at the opening for the Drive Shaft. This seal area must be free of defects such as pits or
	scratches and also free of debris.
90252 Blending	The Cap should be held in place by the three 1/2" screws and be in the proper orientation.
Dial Cap
90222 Blending	The dial permits the addition of “hard water” into the soft water outlet. It is closed when pointing
Dial	toward the Main Valve Body and open when pointing toward the inlet side.
90246 Bypass	Makes the connection between the plumbing and Main Valve Body. Also, contains the “Hard Water”
Housing	Blending Valve and Bypass Piston. The recommended seal for the 1-1/4" male inlet-outlet threads is
	the plastic Hook-up Nut (90251), O-Ring (90837), and Copper Adapter (90254). Make sure the O-
	Ring is between the Housing and Copper Adapter. The O-Ring seal areas at the Main Valve Body
	inlet and outlet must be smooth and free of defects and debris, and lubricated with silicone grease
	before assembling. When attaching to the Main Valve Body, put the O-Rings on the male bosses on
	the Valve Body and push the Bypass into place; if not, the O-Rings may be “pinched.” If the O-Rings
	are pinched, replace with new ones. The Bypass is pre-assembled with the Sensor housing and
	turbine axle. These are not field-serviceable and if damaged, must be replaced with a new assembly.
	The Bypass Piston bore is to be smooth and, at the recessed areas, have a smooth transition (no
	sharp corners) to the seat areas.
90616 Bypass	The white Teflon Hydro-slide O-Ring covers should be free of defects such as indentations and cuts.
Piston Assembly	The Piston should move freely into and out of the Bypass Housing (90246) without damaging the
	Hydro-slides. If the Hydro-slides catch, tear or crimp, the Housing should be replaced.
	Note: Some compression will occur when the Hydro-slides pass through the seal areas.
90218 Bypass	The Drive Shaft has an acme thread which is used to move the Piston from “bypass” to “service”
Piston Drive	position. When operating the Bypass, to achieve either “service” or “bypass,” it is only necessary to
Shaft	turn the Handle (90221) until the Piston (90616) stops. Additional pressure (torque) will not improve
	the seal. Once the Piston reaches the stop at either position, it can be backed off up to one half turn
	of the handle and still achieve a seal.
90226 Test Port	The Test Port Valve is used to draw water samples for testing of treated water.
Valve	Note: The Bypass must be in the “service” position to get an accurate sample. There are two types of
	seals on the Test Port. One seal is an O-Ring which seals off the threaded area when the Valve is
	opened. The other seal is a compression O-Ring seal between the Test Port Valve material and the
	Right End Cap material. If this seal is “overtightened,” it can damage the O-Ring and cause a
	permanent leak.
93860 Turbine	Picks up the magnetic field from the Turbine and relays it to the Controller. Care should be taken
Sensor Wire	when putting the Sensor Wire into the Sensor Housing. The cap is then put in place and the mounting
	screw is installed. A slot is provided in the cap for the wire to exit. The three-wire socket connector
	must be properly installed in the controller. Stops on the connector prevent improper (upside down)
	assembly. Do not force the connector past the stops.
90522 Turbine	The turbine must have a 1/8" diameter Rare Earth magnet pressed into place adjacent to the axle
Assembly	opening. When assembled to the axle, the Turbine should spin freely. Do not use any lubricants. If the
	Turbine should become “jammed,” clean and flush the Turbine and Bypass Valve.
