OPERATING CONDITIONS & REQUIREMENTS 

 

Page 4 

 

 

OPERATING PRESSURE: min. 1,4 / max. 8,3 bar 

 

this  system  is  configured  to  perform  optimally  at  an 
operating pressure of 3 bar (±½ bar); in case of a lower or 
higher  operating  pressure  the  performance  may  be 
affected negatively! 

 

check water pressure regularly. 

 

take  into  account  that  night  time  water  pressure  may  be 
considerably higher than day time water pressure. 

 

install  a  pressure  reducer  ahead  of  the  water  softener  if 
necessary. 

 
 

 

OPERATING TEMPERATURE: min. 2 / max. 48 °C 

 

do not install the water softener in an environment where 
high ambient temperatures (e.g. unvented boiler house) or 
freezing temperatures can occur. 

 

the  water  softener  cannot  be  exposed  to  outdoor 
elements,  such  as  direct  sunlight  or  atmospheric 
precipitation. 

 

do  not  install  the  water  softener  too  close  to  a  water 
heater; keep at least  3 m of piping between the outlet of 
the water softener and the inlet of the water heater; water 
heaters  can  sometimes  transmit  heat  back  down  the  cold 
pipe  into  the  control  valve;  always  install  a  check  valve  at 
the outlet of the water softener. 

 
 

 

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION: 230V-50Hz 

 

this  water  softener  only  works  on  24VAC;  it  is  equipped 
with  a  230/24V-50Hz  transformer;  always  use  it  in 
combination with the supplied transformer. 

 

make  sure  to  plug  the  transformer  into  a  power  outlet, 
which  is  installed  in  a  dry  location,  with  the  proper  rating 
and over-current protection.
