replacing and carrying out the calcium and magnesium. This restores
the Water Softener capacity. Then the Water Softener goes into slow
rinse cycle which is when all the brine has been drawn from the
Water Softener brine tank. An eliminator built into the brine safety
valve, prevents air from being drawn into the water softener tank.
Fresh water continues to flow through the Water Softener brine
injector into the Water Softener tank in a down flow direction, slowly
displacing the brine and rinsing it out to drain.
The third step is the second back wash cycle. The Water Softener
has the water flow from the bottom to the top of the tank then out to
drain, washing out turbidity or iron and reclassifying the Water
Softener resin bed. The Water Softener has an automatic flow
control in the drain line that limits flow of back wash to avoid possible
loss of Water Softener resin.
The fourth step is the fast rinse cycle. The Water Softener received a
fast rinse down flow to insure a salt free preconditioned Water
Softener resin bed before returning the Water Softener to service.
The fifth step is refill cycle. The Water Softener refills the Water
Softener media tank until water ready to go into service.
The sixth step is the service cycle. The Water Softener goes into
service making soft water until capacity utilized.
Water Softener Preparation;
The success of the Water Softener installation will depend to a great
extent on advance planning and preparation. Careful attention to the
Water Softener location, accessibility to electrical and drain facilities
and the availability of the proper tools will ensure a proper Water
Softener installation. Of utmost importance is the assurance that the
Water Softener has been properly applied and meets all
specifications.
Application:
Essential to correct application is a complete water analysis of water
to be treated. Excalibur extends to all customers, through its dealers
or our factory, a water analysis service.
