Manual Cleaning Cycle (360 Valve)
1. To start a cleaning cycle, turn the control knob counter-
clockwise until the indicator arrow is lined up with "1". The
system will backwash, flushing water through the filtration
media in the tank.
2. Turn the control knob counter-clockwise until the indicator
arrow is lined up with "2". Water will flow to drain.
3. Turn the control knob counter-clockwise to line up the
indicator arrow with "0" to return the system back to
normal operation.
Semi-Automatic Cleaning Cycle (361 Valve)
1. To start a cleaning cycle, turn the control knob counter-
clockwise until the indicator arrow is lined up with the
Recycle icon
.
2. The system will automatically cycle through a backwash
(20 minutes) and rinse (6 minutes) and return to normal
operation.
NOTE: The indicator light on the front valve cover will
illuminate during regeneration.
361 Remote Regeneration
An optional remote regeneration kit (P/N 4002561) is available
for the 361 valve to enable fully automatic regeneration. When
the kit is installed, a remote switch (such as a differential
pressure switch) can be connected to the valve to control
cleaning cycle initiation.
