Intended use
diately!
In order to be able to discharge the waste-
water safely during operation and in case of
any defect in the system, precise compli-
ance with the details stated in the chapter
“Requirements for the place of installation”
is necessary!
2.1
Water pressure
The water pressure must be between 1.5
bar and 8 bar.
If the water treatment device is not regularily
regenerated, this can result in a pressure
loss and impairment of the softening
function.
ATTENTION
(see chapter “Safety information and
dangers due to non-compliance”)
If the
water pressure is more than 8 bar
a
pressure reducer must be installed
before
the water treatment device (see fig. 2). An
operating pressure of more than 8 bar can
lead to malfunction and failure.
The optimal operating pressure for the water
treatment device lies between 3 bar and
5 bar. It works most economically under
these pressure conditions. In modern sani-
tary installations (in particular where single
lever mixer taps are used), despite normal
system pressure conditions, peak pressures
of up to over 30 bar frequently occur. This
can cause damage to important functional
interior parts of the water treatment device.
2.2
Notes on special dangers
2.2.1 Electrical devices/equipment
Electrical devices/equipment, which are not
splash proof and which are located near the
water treatment device can be damaged by
water splashing from the water treatment
device during cleaning/flushing or improper
use. If the electrical devices/equipment are
connected to the power supply, this can
cause a short circuit resulting in possible
electric shock. In this case there is a risk of
people suffering an electric shock. Electrical
devices/equipment located near the water
treatment device must therefore be splash
proof and comply with the legal regulations
for wet rooms (IP44).
For a
water pressure of 5 bar to
8 bar
we recommend the installation
of a pressure reducer.

water treatment device
There must not be any electrical
cables and devices underneath or in
the immediate vicinity of the water
treatment device!
