Drain Line Connection - Pentair FOLEO 5800 XTR Installer Manual

Installer manual Foleo 5800 XTR - Installation
*Note: Use of petroleum-based grease and mineral based lubricant is totally forbidden, not only
on the valve thread, since plastics used (especially Noryl) will highly suffer from contact with this
type of grease, leading into structural damage hence to potential failures.
4.5.6.2 Bypassing
A bypass valve system should be installed on all water conditioning systems. Bypass valves isolate
the softener from the water system and allow unconditioned water to be used. Service or routine
maintenance procedures may also require that the system is bypassed.

CAUTION
Do not solder pipes with lead-based solder.
Do not use tools to tighten plastic fittings.
Over time, stress may break the connections.
Prohibition
Use of silicone or petroleum-based lubricants, oils or hydrocarbon-based lubricants, is
strictly prohibited with Foleo 5800 XTR as the valve 5800 is equipped with silicone o-
rings that are not compatible with silicone based lubricant.
Mandatory
Use only P-80
Using another lubricant may damage the valve.
