Queueing a Regeneration
1. Press the Extra Cycle button. The service icon will flash to
indicate that a regeneration is queued.
2. To cancel a queued regeneration, press the Extra
Cycle button.
Regenerating Immediately
Press and hold the Extra Cycle button for five seconds.
TIMER OPERATION
Meter Immediate Control
A meter immediate control measures water usage and
regenerates the system as soon as the calculated system
capacity is depleted. The control calculates the system
capacity by dividing the unit capacity (typically expressed in
grains/unit volume) by the feedwater hardness and subtracting
the reserve. Meter Immediate systems generally do not use a
reserve volume. However, in twin tank systems with soft-water
regeneration, the reserve capacity should be set to the volume
of water used during regeneration to prevent hard water
break-through. A Meter Immediate control will also start a
regeneration cycle at the programmed regeneration time if a
number of days equal to the regeneration day override pass
before water usage depletes the calculated system capacity.
Meter Delayed Control
A Meter Delayed Control measures water usage and
regenerates the system at the programmed regeneration time
after the calculated system capacity is depleted. As with Meter
Immediate systems, the control calculates the system capacity
by dividing the unit capacity by the feedwater hardness and
subtracting the reserve. The reserve should be set to insure
that the system delivers treated water between the time the
system capacity is depleted and the actual regeneration time.
A Meter Delayed control will also start a regeneration cycle at
the programmed regeneration time if a number of days equal
to the regeneration day override pass before water usage
depletes the calculated system capacity.
Time Clock Delayed Control
A Time Clock Delayed Control regenerates the system on a
timed interval. The control will initiate a regeneration cycle
at the programmed regeneration time when the number of
days since the last regeneration equals the regeneration day
override value.
Day of the Week Control
This control regenerates the system on a weekly schedule.
The schedule is defined in Master Programming by setting
each day to either “off” or “on.” The control will initiates a
regeneration cycle on days that have been set to “on” at the
specified regeneration time.
Control Operation During Regeneration
During regeneration, the control displays a special regeneration
display. In this display, the control shows the current regeneration
step number the valve is advancing to, or has reached, and the
time remaining in that step. The step number that displays
flashes until the valve completes driving to this regeneration
step position. Once all regeneration steps are complete the valve
returns to service and resumes normal operation.
Pressing the Extra Cycle button during a regeneration cycle
immediately advances the valve to the next cycle step position
and resumes normal step timing.
Control Operation During Programming
The control only enters the Program Mode with the valve in
service. While in the Program Mode, the control continues
to operate normally monitoring water usage and keeping all
displays up to date. Control programming is stored in memory
permanently, eliminating the need for battery backup power.
Manually Initiating a Regeneration
1. When timer is in service, press the Extra Cycle button for 5
seconds on the main screen.
2. The timer advances to Regeneration Cycle Step #1
(backwash), and begins programmed time count down.
3. Press the Extra Cycle button once to advance valve to
Regeneration Cycle Step #2 (brine draw & slow rinse).
4. Press the Extra Cycle button once to advance valve to
Regeneration Cycle Step #3 (rapid rinse).
5. Press the Extra Cycle button once to advance valve to
Regeneration Cycle Step #4 (brine refill).
6. Press the Extra Cycle button once more to advance the
valve back to in service.
NOTE:
If the unit is a filter or upflow, the cycle step order
may change.
NOTE:
A queued regeneration can be initiated by
pressing the Extra Cycle button. To clear a queued
regeneration, press the Extra Cycle button again
to cancel. If regeneration occurs for any reason
prior to the delayed regeneration time, the manual
regeneration request shall be cleared.
Control Operation During A Power Failure
The SXT includes integral power backup. In the event of power
failure, the control shifts into a power-saving mode. The
control stops monitoring water usage, and the display and
motor shut down, but it continues to keep track of the time and
day for a minimum of 48 hours.
The system configuration settings are stored in a non-volatile
memory and are stored indefinitely with or without line power.
The Time of Day flashes when there has been a power failure.
Press any button to stop the Time of Day from flashing.
If power fails while the unit is in regeneration, the control will
save the current valve position before it shuts down. When
power is restored, the control will resume the regeneration
cycle from the point where power failed. Note that if power
fails during a regeneration cycle, the valve will remain in it’s
current position until power is restored. The valve system
should include all required safety components to prevent
overflows resulting from a power failure during regeneration.
The control will not start a new regeneration cycle without
line power. If the valve misses a scheduled regeneration due
to a power failure, it will queue a regeneration. Once power
is restored, the control will initiate a regeneration cycle
the next time that the Time of Day equals the programmed
regeneration time. Typically, this means that the valve will
regenerate one day after it was originally scheduled. If the
treated water output is important and power interruptions are
expected, the system should be setup with a sufficient reserve
capacity to compensate for regeneration delays.
