Recommended Aqua-Sensor

Start-Up Procedure
NOTE You might find it useful to pre-test the sensor probe in your shop. The
same test setup can be used in the field.
1. Close the main water supply valve.
2. Install the sensor probe into the tank but do not connect the sensor to the control at this
time.
3. Set the Cul-Flo-Valv® to the BYPASS position.
4. Ensure that all faucets at the installation site are closed.
5. Direct the drain line discharge into a bucket where flow can be observed.
6. Plug the transformer into a 120 Volt, 60 Hz, single-phase receptacle (make sure to connect
both 24V and 2.5V properly).
7. Complete the FIrst Time Set-up.
8. Open the main supply valve.
9. Initiate an immediate regeneration to move the control into the
BACKWASH
position.
10. Refer to the section on manual cycling for information on cycling the control through its
positions.
11. When in the
BACKWASH
position, slowly rotate the bypass to the soft water position until
water flows.
12. Continue
BACKWASH
until the drain effluent is clear and the Aqua-Sensor probe is
placed in the resin bed—at least 10 minutes (use a white foam coffee cup to occasionally
collect a sample of backwash water; the stark white of the cup will show the presence of
color throw and resin fines).
13. Continue or repeat the
BACKWASH
cycle if needed.
14. After the backwash water runs clear, step the control to the
REFILL
position to fill the brine
tank and purge air from the brine line.
15. Unplug the control and connect the sensor to the circuit board.
16. Reconnect the power and
INSTALL
the Aqua-Sensor Probe (Main Menu/ Accessories/
AquaSensor)
17. Check the condition of the Aqua-Sensor (Main Menu/Diagnostics/Checksensors)
18. Press the Program key and program the control to the desired settings.
19. Complete installation and cleanup.
20. Sanitize the unit as you leave the installation (see “Sanitizing Procedure” on page 48).
21. Initiate an immediate regeneration.
The thorough backwashing process should have cleared the fines and color-throw from the tank. The
probe should settle into the resin bed during the first couple of minutes of backwashing.
