  • Page 14: Use Of Optional Chlorine Cell

    4.3 Use of optional chlorine cell Periodical chlorination of the raw water feed to a softener device is meaningful in order to fight microbiological contamination in the exchangers and pipes by chemical means. For this purpose, a chlorine cell may be inserted in the brine tube by use of a t- piece connector that produces active chlorine.
  • Page 15 Please note: The dimensioning of the WaterLine softener device must be such that soft water demand does not exceed the soft water capacity between any two regenerations. The regeneration process is separated in the partial steps „back- wash“, „brine/slow wash“, „rinse “ and „fill“. Raw water 4.4.2.1 Backwash Under control valve regime raw water is fed bottom up through...

    6.2 Run forced regeneration Before using the WaterLine softener device for the first time, a rinse and regeneration process of approx. 40 mins. of duration should be carried out for the a.m.reason. During this period some noise will be perceived due to the motorized valve piston movement and water flowing through the control valve and the tubing.
  • Page 25 Since the blending valve integrated in the control valve works not very precisely when used with a low flow rate, HygroMatik generally recommends the use of an external blending armature that works independant from pressure. When such a valve is in use, setting the mixed water hardness to „zero“...

    8. Maintenance 8.1 General information The HygroMatik softener device requires only very little mainte- nance by design. In order to guarantee the water quality desired, however, periodically performed checks of the device are impor- tent. Daily control of proper operation is just one activity to start with.
  • Page 31 Check salt tablet supply A certain amount of salt must always be detectable in the brine tank in order to ensure the availability of the 25 percent brine required for the regeneration of the exchanger resin. The latest instance for filling up the salt tablet supply is when the liquid level exceeds the salt level.
  • Page 32: Periodical Inspection

    8.2.2 Periodical inspection In addition to the daily checks, the activities described below should be carried out at bimonthly intervals: Check leakiness of wastewater connection on con- trol valve No wastewater to be detected on connection elbow Check filter insert of fine filter in raw water pipe and replace if contaminated or visible wear detectable Check brine consumption during regeneration as indicated by salt filling level change in brine tank.

Removal from service, storage and recom- missioning 9.1 Removal from service Please note: Even when the device is not used for longer peri- ods of time, it should remain switched-on since hygienic regen- erations are run in stand-by as well. Should for good cause removal from service should neverthe- less be required, the steps below must be performed.
  • Page 36: Optional Chlorine Cell

    10. Optional chlorine cell 10.1 Functional description and design For bacteriostatic purposes the chlorine cell produces active chlorine by electrolysation during the brining process. The chlo- rine makes contact with the ion exchanger resin and, conse- quently, sports an bactericidal effect. Chlorination is only effective during brine intake and stops automatically when slow wash or rinse is started.
