Carefully follow these instructions to prevent
any problem with the water softener.
Install the water softening system in a dry room, which
is not liable to frost and is equipped with a floor drain.
The ambient temperature should not exceed 30 °C.
The system requires a power supply (230 V, 50 Hz)
under constant voltage, which is independent of the
light switch.
A gravity flow connection to the sewer for the waste
water hose and the salt tank's safety overflow is
necessary as well.
The water softening system is usually installed
downstream of the protecting filter, the pressure
reducing valve (
compulsory as of a static pressure
of 5.0 bar) and upstream of a dosing pump (optional).
To prevent huge damage on the installation site due
to a leaking device or supply line ( for instance in
an office, medical practice etc), it has to be ensured
that during the personnel's absence the water and
power supply are interrupted upstream of the system.
However, the disconnection is not allowed during the
regeneration process. Should the water and power
supply be interrupted for more than 4 days, initiate
a regeneration process manually, when the device
resumes service. The resulting automatic disinfection
will ensure a perfectly hygienic operation.
Do not position the waste water hose above the
control unit. The maximum length of the hose is 3
m. Do not extend it. Install the overflow hose with
a continuous inclination towards the sewer without
bending it.
The water to be softened has to be clear, free of solid
impurities as well as iron and manganese-free.
