METRIC
This option controls whether cubic meters or US gallons is used for the volume display and the format
of the day, year, and month.

REGENERATION MODE
METER DELAYED
This is the most common setting. When the volume remaining reaches zero gallons, the system will
initiate a regeneration at the next pre-set regeneration time.
METER IMMEDIATE The unit will initiate a regeneration immediately after the volume remaining reaches zero.
TIMER
The unit will initiate a regeneration at the next pre-set regeneration time based on the interval of days
between regeneration days.
MIX REGEN
Meter initiated with Day Override.
When the volume remaining reaches zero gallons, the system will
initiate a regeneration at the next pre-set regeneration time. If the days between regeneration is
reached before the remaining volume reaches zero, the system will override the meter setting and
initiate a regeneration.
4
DATE
Set date of installation. This value is fixed and does not change.
5
TIME
Set current time.
6
REG TIME
This setting controls the time of day when a regeneration cycle will start.
7
REG. DAYS
The user can manually enter values for regeneration day intervals.
8
REG. CAP.
The user can manually enter values system capacity.
9
BACKWASH
This option controls the length of time in minutes for the unit to clean the bed by reversing the flow of
water upwards through the bed and out to the drain.
10
BRINE
This option controls the length if time in minutes for the unit to draw regenerant (brine for softeners)
from the second tank and slowly rinse it from the top to bottom of the tank.
11
RINSE
This option controls the length of time to give the tank a final rinse from the top to the bottom in order
remove any last traces of the regenerant (brine) from the tank.
12
REFILL
This option controls the length of time the brine valve will open to refill the second tank (brine tank for
softeners) with water in order to produce the regenerate solution (brine for softeners) for the next
regeneration cycle. The water is accurately measured through the valves brine line flow control to
make a precise quantity of regenerant solution.

LOAD DEFAULT
L.CAPA.
It is not recommended to use any of these options.
The function of this option is to load pre-set
values of BACKWASH, BRINE, RINSE, and REFILL for large, medium, and small capacity systems.
We
recommend to use the settings as specified in the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION section of this manual.

Manual Regeneration (Delayed or Immediate)
If you run out of filtered water because of inadequate regeneration frequency, inadequate reserve capacity, power failure or
unusually high water usage, you can initiate a manual regeneration. The filter will now automatically complete a regeneration
cycle and return to service. If possible, avoid water use during the regeneration cycle.
Once you have set your filter you may experience frequent loss of water pressure, you may have to increase the frequency of
regeneration by decreasing the number of gallons between regeneration.
If screen is locked, press “
MENU
”
for 3 seconds to unlock. To initiate an immediate regeneration, press the SET / REGEN button
for 3 seconds, an option for delayed or immediate regeneration will appear. Press the SET / REGEN button again and delayed will
begin flashing, press the down arrow button to have immediate flash, press the SET / REGEN button and then press the menu
button and the valve will immediately start into manual regeneration.
To initiate a delayed regeneration, press the SET / REGEN button for 3 seconds, then press the menu button and a regeneration
will be queued to the next pre-set regeneration time (2:00 a.m.).
Sizing Requirements
Water Pressure
The water system must have a pump big enough to deliver the recommended backwash rate with a minimum pressure at the inlet
of the filter of 20 psi. If the existing system cannot do this, it must be upgraded to do so. Your chemical free iron filter system is
designed to operate under normal water pressures from 25 psi to 50 psi.
NOTE:
This system is not compatible with constant pressure or variable speed pumps a cycle time is required for it to work
correctly.
