Specifications - Hellenbrand Iron Curtain Owner's Manual

aeration control center
Your new IC-2.0 Aeration Control is factory pre-set to cycle the
air compressor once every 24 hours. To adjust the air recharge
frequency, refer to the wiring schematic on page 9. The timer
has a fixed run time, which cannot be adjusted up or down. To
manually initiate an air recharge cycle, unplug the power cord
and plug it back into the electrical outlet. The air pump will
begin to run and will automatically shut off. Off time tolerance
is ±5% which can vary as much as 72 minutes every 24 hours
and not affect the functioning of the Iron Curtain.
Iron curtain filter control
Your Iron Curtain Filter is factory preset to backwash every
third day. Adjust as necessary but never backwash less often
than every three days. See filter control owners manual for
details.
regeneration frequency
Your Iron Curtain Filter System contains a special filter media
mixture which allows it to filter iron longer than standard filters
between backwash regenerations. However, it is our recom-
mendation to leave factory settings as is, unless you wish to
backwash more frequently. You will have to backwash more
frequently if you have higher amounts of iron, iron bacteria,
hydrogen sulfide, and/or manganese present in your water
supply. You will also have to regenerate more frequently if
you notice iron bleed through before the end of the normal
service run.

(Settings Based on Average Pressure (50psi) and <500 Gal-
lons Daily Use)
Iron Applications
0.3 - 3.0 ppm Iron - Once Daily (Every 24 hours)
3.0 - 6.0 ppm Iron - Once Daily
6.0 - 10.0 ppm Iron - Twice Daily (Every 12 hours)
10+ ppm Iron - Consult Factory
Hydrogen Sulfide Applications
Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) consumes 7 times the amount of
oxygen to oxidize than iron does. Therefore, for Hydrogen
Sulfide Applications, we use the following guideline;
0 - 4 ppm H2S -Twice Daily (Every 12 hours)
4 - 8 ppm H2S - Three Times Daily (Every 8 hours)
8 - 10 ppm H2S - Six Times Daily (Every 4 hours)
See page 9 to change air recharge frequency on timer.
