Pro-OX 1650 Iron Filter Installation & Startup Guide
Troubleshooting the Pro-Ox 1650 Iron Filter
Measure the backwash flow rate by putting the system into a backwash mode and putting the drain tube
into a 5 gallon bucket and timing the flow rate. A 0.75 cubic foot system should flow at 5 gallons in one
minute, so the 5 gallon bucket should fill in one minute. The 1.0 cubic foot system should flow at 7 GPM
during backwash.
In some cases, the CWS 165 valve has simply been programmed incorrectly. Double-check your settings
against those described above in step 16 of Assembly and Installation Instructions ("PROGRAMMING",
page 10) or consult your system's service manual for instructions. In some cases a nightly backwash is re‐
quired for best results. Adjust backwash frequency to every 1 to 2 nights if necessary.
What To Do If Your Filter Tank Does Not Sit Level On the Floor
Your black filter tank base is not glued to the bottom of your tank. Occasionally tank bases will become
crooked during shipment. If you find that that your tank does not sit level on the floor, you can easily ad‐
just it by holding the empty tank and rapping it on a concrete or solid floor once or twice in order to level
it.
