SAFETY INFORMATION
Electrical
There are no user-serviceable parts in the AC adapter,
motor, or controller. In the event of a failure, these should be
replaced:
•
All electrical connections must be completed according
to local codes.
•
Use only the power AC adapter that is supplied.
•
The power outlet must be grounded.
•
To disconnect power, unplug the AC adapter from its
power source.
Mechanical
•
Do not use petroleum based lubricants such as
petroleum jelly, oils, or hydrocarbon based lubricants.
Use only 100% silicone lubricants.
•
All plastic connections should be hand tightened.
Plumber's tape may be used on connections that do not
use an O-ring seal.
Do not use pliers or pipe wrenches.
•
All plumbing must be completed according to local
codes.
•
Soldering near the drain line should be done before
connecting the drain line to the valve. Excessive heat will
cause interior damage to the valve.
•
Do not use lead-based solder for sweat solder
connections.
•
The drain line must be a minimum of 1/2" diameter. Use
3/4" pipe if the backwash flow rate is greater than 5 GPM
(18.9 Lpm) or the pipe length is greater than 20 feet (6
m).
•
Do not support the weight of the system on the control
valve fittings, plumbing, or the bypass.
General
•
Keep the media tank in the upright position. Do not turn
on side, upside down, or drop. Turning the tank upside
down will cause media to enter the valve.
•
Operating ambient temperature is between 34ºF (1ºC)
and 120ºF (49ºC).
•
Operating water temperature is between 34ºF (1ºF) and
100ºF (38ºC).
•
Working water pressure range is 20 to 125 psi (1.38
to 8.61 bar). In Canada the acceptable working water
pressure range is 20 to 100 psi (1.38 to 6.89 bar).
•
Use only regenerant salts designed for water softening.
Do not use ice melting, block, or rock salts.
•
Follow state and local codes for water testing. Do not use
water that is micro-biologically unsafe or of unknown
quality.
•
When filling media tank, do not open water valve
completely. Fill tank slowly to prevent media from exiting
the tank.
•
When installing the water connection (bypass or
manifold) connect to the plumbing system first. Allow
heated parts to cool and cemented parts to set before
installing any plastic parts. Do not get primer or solvent
on O-rings, nuts, or the valve.
