ADJUSTMENT OF BRINE CONTROL
460i/460TC
The amount of salt placed into the regenerant storage tank
has nothing to do with the amount of salt used during the
regeneration cycle. Water will dissolve and absorb salt only
until it becomes saturated. A given amount of brine (salt
saturated water) contains a specific amount of salt.
The salt dial controls the amount of brine used during the
regeneration cycle, e.g., when set at 15 lbs. (6.8 Kg), the
amount of brine the conditioner will use for each cycle will
contain 15 lbs. (6.8 kg) of salt. Never let the amount of salt in
the brine tank be less than the amount required for the
next regeneration.
Refer to the salt setting table, Table 1, for proper salt settings.
To set the salt dial, insert a screwdriver into the pointer knob
(Figure 9) and move the pointer to the proper setting.
To convert the salt settings from English to Metric,
NOTE:
divide by 2.2.
Example: 12 pound = 5.5 kg of salt.
