How The System Works The Chem-Free Iron Filter consists of three passes the filter if required. If possible, avoid major components which are: Control Valve, using water during backwashing to prevent Air Tank, Media Tank. Natural oxidation re- iron-laden water entering your household moves iron, sulfur and manganese without plumbing system.

A chemical free iron filter is not rec- acidic, above 7.0 it is alkaline, and a pH of ommended under this condition.

Sizing Requirements Water Pressure The water system must have a pump big enough to deliver the recommended backwash rate with a minimum pressure at the inlet of the filter of 30 psi. If the existing system can- not do this, it must be upgraded to do so. Whenever possible, the water system should be adjusted to deliver at least 30 psi for even more satisfactory results.
Installation Instructions 1. Locate the Air and Media Tank close to a drain where the system will be installed. The surface should be clean and level. 2. Shut off all water at main supply. On a private well system, turn off power to pump and drain pressure tank.

Manual Regeneration (Step / Cycle Valve) To Initiate the manual regeneration, rotate the knob to the backwash position. About The System Operation During A Power Failure In the event of a power failure, the valve will keep track of the time and day for 48 hours. The programmed settings are stored in a non-volatile memory and will not be lost during a power failure.

Regeneration Process Periodically the filter will require a back wash to clean the trapped particles, unpack the fil- ter bed to restore the system flow rates, and replenish the air in the contact tank.. The ta- ble below explains the regeneration steps. Step Name Description...

Loading the Media Pak Remove the tank adaptor from the second mineral tank. Temporarily plug the open end of the central pipe in the tank to insure that no media falls down into the distribution. Fill mineral tank one quarter full of water to protect distribution during gravel installa- tion.

Cleaning or Replacing Injectors Sediment, salt and silt will restrict or clog the injector. A clean water supply and pure salt will prevent this from happening. The injector assembly is located on the right side of the control valve. This assembly is easy to clean.
