    541N SERIES Introduction The 541N Series are electronic 2- or 4-cycle regeneration control valves for softening of drinking and feed water supplies. When the drain solenoid is activated, the valve is automatically transferred to the regeneration position; together with the optional additional solenoid valve(s) integrated in the back cap of the control valve body, this simple and reliable system guarantees years of trouble-free service.
