Operating Pressure: 20-125 psi or 1.4-8.8kg/Centimeter², Operating Temperature: 34-110⁰ F or 1.1-43.3⁰C Acceptable Salt Type:
Sodium Chloride
All Systems above tested at 35psi+/-5 psi, pH of 7.5 +/-0.5, Capacity Testing Flow Rate = 50% of the rated service flow rate for
the various size systems.
These water softener systems have been tested by the WQA and conform to NSF/ANSI 44 for specific performance claims as
verified and substantiated by test data. The rated salt efficiencies above were also determined in accordance with NSF/ANSI
44 and are only valid at the salt dosage referenced above. An efficiency rated water softener is a demand initiated regeneration
(DIR) softener which also complies with specific performance specifications intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine
and water used in its operation. Efficiency rated water softeners shall have a rated salt efficiency of not less that 3350 grains in
total hardness exchanged per pound of salt (based on NaCl equivalency) (477 grams of total hardness exchanged per kilogram
of salt), and shall not deliver more salt that its listed rating. The rated efficiency of the water softener, the salt dosage at that ef
-
ficiency, the capacity at the salt dosage and that of the efficiency is only valid at the stated salt dosage. Efficiency is measured by
a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maximum possible efficiency the system can achieve. Op
-
erational efficiency is the actual efficiency achieved after the system has been installed. It is typically less that the efficiency due
to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminates that reduce the water softener’s
capacity. These systems are not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Refer to the system Installation and Service Manuals for set-up and
programming instructions.
