Fig 7. 5900e Potassium Permanganate Tank Set-Up & Installation:
6. First remove the rubber band that comes on the float assembly from the manufacturer. Add
enough clean water to the pot perm solution tank to bring water level about 1" above the felt
pad. Add one 2 or 5-lb jug of potassium permanganate granules to the potassium perm tank by
pouring it directly on top of the white felt pad. Do not pour permanganate down the white
plastic brine well where the black line is attached.
7. See the over-flow barbed fitting on the side of the perm tank. You do not have to connect this to
a drain. If the safety float were to malfunction, there is a small chance that pot perm solution
will drip out of this fitting. If this would cause a big mess where you have installed the greensand
filter, hook some tubing to this and run to a bucket, floor pan or floor drain. Normally no pot
perm solution will leak out of this fitting.
Next, you will need to program the system to work as a Greensand Iron Filter. There are a few settings
that must be changed before the system can be put into service. Plug in the control valve and
continue on to the next page to begin the programming instructions.
