Timer Features SXT
Figure 4
A. Features of the SXT
• Power backup that continues to keep time and the passage of
days for a minimum of 48 hours in the event of power failure .
During a power outage, the control goes into a power-saving
mode . It does not monitor water usage during a power failure,
but it does store the volume remaining at the time of power
failure .
• Settings for both valve (basic system) and control type (method
used to trigger a regeneration) .
• Day-of-the-Week controls .
• While in service, the display alternates between time of day,
volume remaining or days to regeneration .
• The Flow Indicator flashes when outlet flow is detected .
• The Service Icon flashes if a regeneration cycle has been
queued .
Meter, volume, and capacity values are not displayed on SXT filter
systems .
• A Regeneration can be triggered immediately by pressing the
Extra Cycle button for five seconds .
• The Parameter Display displays the current Cycle Step (BW,
BF, RR etc) during regeneration, and the data display counts
down the time remaining for that cycle step . While the valve
is transferring to a new cycle step, the display will flash . The
parameter display will identify the destination cycle step (BW,
BF, RR, etc) and the data display will read "------" . Once the
valve reaches the cycle step, the display will stop flashing
and the data display will change to the time remaining . During
regeneration, the user can force the control to advance to the
next cycle step immediately by pressing the extra cycle button .
