13 - HOW TO PROGRAMME THE ELECTRONIC TIMER VT 1000 AND ET 500
The electronic timer
VT 1000
is actually a small computer designed and created by GEL to control the
softener in a fully automatic way and allow an easy and fast programming.
This timer is capable of regenerating the resins with the following modes:
Time - Pure volume - Volume/Time - Volume/ with time
Programming is carried out by entering some simple data, such as water hardness – exact time –
regeneration frequency - regeneration time, and selecting the desired working mode (time, volume,
volume-time).
During the operation stage, the timer display shows the clock function and allows anyway to modify the
programmed data, the water volume the softener can treat and the volume produced already. During
regeneration the display indicates the stage that is being carried out.
Moreover, thanks to a function key it is possible to carry out an immediate manual regeneration with the
possibility to jump a stage for a fast test after installation.
The version
VT 1000 AD
is fitted with a disinfection system of the resins (recommended for potable use)
combined with a salt level control device.
The electronic timer
VT 1000
is supplied with the programming of the following values:
- regeneration frequency:
04 days
- regeneration time:
02.00 by night
- water hardness at the entry:
50° f
The electronic timer
ET 500
is completely the same as the
VT 1000
but can control the regeneration by
time only.
The water softeners with the timer in the AD version are fitted with a resins
disinfection
system.
Except for the clock and the exhausted salt alarm, all the other operating parameters
of the softener are to be adjusted by the authorized Technical Assistance Service
carrying out the first start up and testing of the softener.
The user and/or the installer are not allowed for any reason to change these
programming parameters!
