HS-SMM / HL-SMM Mechanical Control Valve Start-Up Procedure
1.
Manually index the control valve to the In Service position and allow water to flow into the resin
tank (pressure tank). When the water flow stops, open a softened water tap until all air is
released from the lines. Then close tap.
Regeneration cycles may be dialed manually by turning the knob clockwise until desired cycle
appears.
2.
Set water usage program wheel using one of the following procedures:
a.
A Typical Residential Application - Set the time and hardness and it automatically monitors
system needs and regenerates only when necessary. To set time of day press time set button
and turn 24-hour gear until present time of day is at Time of day. Set program wheel by lifting
the People dial and rotating it so that the number of people in the household is aligned with
the household grains per gallon water hardness. Release the dial and check for firm
engagement at setting. This method provides reserve capacity based on 75 gallons per
person.
b.
Optional Programming Procedure - Calculate the gallon capacity, take the total resin volume
multiplied by .75. Divide by grains hardness of water supply. Ex: 1 Cu/Ft =32,000 at 15 grains
hardness. (32,000 x .75) ÷ 15=1,600 gal. Set the gallons available at the small white dot on
program wheel gear. Reference table on Page 15.
