Diagnostic:
The inlet handle points in the direction of flow and the outlet handle
points to the center of bypass valve, system water pressure is allowed
to the control valve and the plumbing system while not allowing water to
exit from the control valve to the plumbing.

SHUT OFF MODE
Figure 4
Shut Off:
The inlet handle points to the center of the bypass valve and the outlet
handle points in the direction of flow, the water is shut off to the plumbing
system. If water is available on the outlet side of the softener it is an
indication of water bypass around the system (i.e. a plumbing
connection somewhere in the building bypasses the system).

Bypass:
The inlet and outlet handles point to the center of the bypass, the control
valve is isolated from the water pressure contained in the plumbing
system. Untreated water is supplied to the plumbing system.

Normal Operation:
The inlet and outlet handles point in the direction of flow indicated by
the engraved arrows on the control valve. Water flows through the
control valve during normal operation and this position also allows the
control valve to isolate the media bed during the regeneration cycle.
Bypass Valve
The bypass valve is typically used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system’s water pressure in order to per-
form control valve repairs or maintenance. The WS1 bypass valve is particularly unique in the water treatment
industry due to its versatility and state of the art design features. The 1” full flow bypass valve incorporates four positions
including a diagnostic position that allows service personal to work on a pressurized system while still providing untreated
bypass water to the facility or residence. Its completely non-metallic, all plastic, design allows for easy
access and serviceability without the need for tools.
The bypass body and rotors are glass filled Noryl and the nuts and caps are glass filled polypropylene. All seals are
self-lubricating EPDM to help prevent valve seizing after long periods of non-use. Internal o-rings can easily be replaced
if service is required.
The bypass consists of two interchangeable plug valves that are operated independently by red arrow shaped handles.
The handles identify the flow direction of the water. The plug valves enable the bypass valve to operate in four positions.
