Installation Instructions

6ADVANCE CONTROL VALVE TO SERVICE POSITION

After the ten-minute refill time, manually advance the control valve to the service position.

7 CONNECT TO ELECTRICAL POWER

8INSTALL 9V BATTERY FOR BATTERY BACKUP FEATURE (CONT.)

To install a battery:

1.

Remove the control valve cover.

2.

The battery pocket is located in the upper left

 

corner of the control as shown.

3.

Connect the battery, matching up negative and

 

positive posts.

4.

Insert battery into holder located on the back of

The softener works on 12 volt- 60Hz electric power. The included transformer changes standard 120-volt AC house power to 12 volts DC. Connect transformer to control panel. Plug is located on the bottom left of the control panel. Plug the transformer into a 120- volt outlet only. Be sure the outlet is always live so it can not be switched off by mistake.

Connect transformer to control panel

the control panel. Make sure terminal wires are

routed away from the valve gears.

9INJECTOR SELECTION

The injector is critical to the proper flow through the resin tank during the regeneration cycle. The injector supplied with the unit from the factory is applicable to installations with supply water pressure up to 70 psi.

If supply water pressure is greater than 70 psi, injector assembly WS15X10059 should be installed.

8INSTALL 9V BATTERY FOR BATTERY BACKUP FEATURE

Your softening system has a battery backup feature that allows the control to continue monitoring water flow and maintain the proper time of day during short power outages. The control uses a standard 9-volt battery (not supplied).

During a power outage, the display will be turned off and the motor will not run, but the control will continue to monitor water flow and time. If power is out and a regeneration is needed, the regeneration will be delayed until power is restored. If power is lost during the regeneration, the control will resume the regeneration when power is restored.

While batteries may

 

last for over a year, it

 

is recommended that

 

you replace the

 

battery every year.

 

During an interruption in power supply, a typical

 

new 9-volt alkaline battery provides approximately

 

40 hours of power for the control.

 

If there is a power outage, after power is restored,

 

verify that the time in the control is correct. If it is,

 

system is OK. If time is incorrect, set the correct

 

time in the control and replace the 9-volt battery.

 

If system has been without power for over 24

 

hours, initiate an immediate regeneration cycle

 

by pressing the REGEN button.
