Page 5: Control Valve Function And Cycles Of Operation
CONTROL VALVE FUNCTIONS Control Valve Function and Cycles of Operation This glass filled Noryl fully automatic control valve is designed as the primary control center to direct and regulate all cycles of a water softener. The control valve can be set to regenerate on demand (consumption of a predetermined amount of water) and/or as a time clock (passage of a particular number of days). -

Conduct a visual check of all equipment for any damage that may have occurred during shipment. Note: If there is obvious damage to any equipment, it should be noted on the carrier’s Bill Of Lading. Open and inspect the contents of all closed crates, cartons, etc. and inspect for con- cealed damage. - Page 7 INSTALLATION Figure 1: Plumbing with by pass (Standard).

Page 13: Drain Line Flow Control/Fitting
DRIVE CAP ASSEMBLY Main Piston and Regenerant Piston The drive gears turn the main gear of the drive cap assembly, which moves the piston. The screw-driven, horizontally mov- ing piston stops at specific positions to direct the flow of water to backwash, regenerate, rinse or refill. -
