300 SERIES Specifications General Specifications CLMN15 CLMN25 Grains Capacity / Regeneration 15,000 25,000 Salt Used / Regeneration 18.0 30.0 Maximum Raw Water Nitrate / Sulfate (mg/l) Maximum Clear Iron / Manganese (ppm) Exchange Resin (cu ft) Mineral Tank (Vortech ™)
300 SERIES Installation Note: Due to the Nitrate System abilities to remove bi-carbonate (alkalinity) from the water, a dramatic reduction in pH of the treated water may be experienced. If this occurs, a whole house or upflow filter with neutralizer or Neu-Cor media may be required.

300 SERIES Installation How To Calculate Regeneration Frequency Note: The quantity of both nitrate and sulfate must be known for proper regeneration calculation. Step 1: Convert Nitrate (NO3) and Sulfate (SO4) to Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3). Nitrate Divide ppm (mg/l) of Nitrate by 62 and multiply by 50.1...

300 SERIES Installation Filling The Brine Tank With Salt To expect a high level of performance and reliability, a salt manufactured specifically for water softeners must be used. Salt of this grade is virtually free from dirt and other particulate that would eventually cause the nitrate filter to malfunction.
