5.3.2 Capacitor Replacement

The capacitor starts the compressor. If the compressor cannot start, the capacitor
may be defective and require replacement. To replace the capacitor, follow the
steps below:
1. Set the unit's
2. Remove the side and lower front panels.
3. Disconnect the two leads to the capacitor and slide capacitor out of the tie-
4. To install the new capacitor, connect the leads and slide the capacitor into

5.4 Solenoid Valves

The NewLife Intensity 10 uses five two-way solenoid valves: two feed, two waste, and one
equalization. Each valve has an open (energized) and closed (de-energized) position. As
the NewLife Intensity 10 operates, two or three valves are always energized.
The solenoid valves of the NewLife Intensity 10 unit require no scheduled maintenance. If
a valve becomes noisy, you can easily replace the internal valve parts. To identify the
noisy valve, observe which green circuit board light (115 VAC units only) illuminates at
the time of the noise. The lighting matrix on the circuit board corresponds to the valve
location.

5.4.1 Feed/Waste Valve Replacement

Feed/Waste Valve Removal
To remove the feed or waste valves, follow the steps below:
1. Set the unit's
2. Remove the side and back panels.
3. Remove the red cap from the appropriate valve with a slotted-head
4. Lift off the solenoid coil.
5. Loosen and remove the valve using a one-inch deep well socket. Be sure to
Feed/Waste Valve Installation
To install a feed or waste valve, follow the feed/waste valve removal procedure in
reverse order. Make sure to install new o-ring and test for leaks.

5.4.2 Solenoid Valve Coil Replacement

An ohmmeter can be a useful tool in determining the condition of a valve coil.
When using and ohmmeter in the NewLife Intensity 10 unit, valve coil readings
should be as indicated below:
0 switch to the "0" position and disconnect the power cord.
I/
wrap holding it in place.
the tie-wrap holding it in place.
0 switch to the "0" position and disconnect the power cord.
I/
screwdriver.
Correct direction of spring is required for proper valve function.
also remove and discard valve o-ring.
