INSTALLATION

DRAIN

We recommend the use of a stand pipe with air trap.

To prevent backflow from the sewerage system into the
water softener, always install and use the included air gap
with double hose barb, to connect the drain hoses to the
sewerage system.

Always use separate drain hoses for the control valve(s)
(evacuation of rinse water) and the brine tank's overflow(s).

Lay-out the drain hoses in such a way that pressure loss
is minimized; avoid kinks and unnecessary elevations.

Make sure that the sewerage system is suitable for the
rinse water flow rate of the water softener.
Picture 7
1. Install the air gap to the sewerage system; it fits over a
32 mm pipe or inside a 40 mm pipe adaptor. Ensure a
permanent and watertight connection.
2. Connect a 13 mm hose to the drain elbow of the control
valve (
 ); secure it by means of a clamp.
3. Run the drain hose to the air gap and connect it to one of
the hose barbs; secure it by means of a clamp. This drain
line operates under pressure, so it may be installed higher
than the water softener.
4. Connect a 13 mm hose to the overflow elbow on the brine
tank; secure it by means of a clamp.
5. Run the drain hose to the air gap and connect it to the
other hose barb. This drain line does NOT operate under
pressure, so it may NOT be installed higher than the water
softener.
6. For Duplex : repeat steps 1-3 for both Simplex systems.
For Triplex : repeat steps 1-5 for all Simplex systems.
ELECTRICAL
Picture 8
1. Plug the transformers output lead into the socket on the
water softeners power cord; secure it by means of the
TwistLock clamp.
2. Plug the transformer into an electrical outlet.
