until the nut can be tightened. Hand tighten the nut because
excessive tightening will damage the assembly.
REPEAT THE
PROCEDURE FOR THE OUTLET CONNECTION.
Service and Drain Piping:
1. Pipe water filter into the service lines. The inlet and outlet
connections of the control valve
are 1” copper, PVC, male threaded
elbow, or sharkbite and are located on the back of the valve body. As
you face the timer the inlet is on the right and the outlet is on the left.
Always follow local plumbing codes when installing our water
treatment equipment.
2. If sweat fittings are used, be sure soldering is done in such a manner
as not to allow heat to reach the control valve or bypass. (If
Schedule 80 PVC is used make sure to follow the proper primer and
solvent instructions.)
3. The drain line connection is
¾” npt or (optional ) 5/8 OD and is
located on the top left of the valve as you face the timer. It is
recomme
nded you install a ¾” union on the drain line for servicing if
not using 5/8 OD. The drain line must be of adequate size to allow
for full regeneration flow.
•
The control valve drain connection is 3/4" npt.
•
Never decrease the drain piping size to below the drain connection size.
•
Maximum drain line length is 30 feet with slope the enire length.
•
Maximum drain line height is 6 feet above the control valve.
•
The drain line must be piped to an open air gap (See Figure above)
•
Always follow local plumbing codes.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THERE BE A DIRECT
CONNECTION WITH SANITARY SEWAGE FACILITIES.
