Page 14: Filling In The Gravel And Resin
4.2.4 Filling in gravel and resin Systems of sizes 60 to 200 are already filled with resin and quartz gravel upon delivery. For systems of size 320 and larger, filling must be carried out as follows: If the softening system is not commissioned immediately after installation and if frost is to be expected before commissioning, the filling must be carried out without water. - Page 15 INSTRUCTION All pipe connections must be connected when the system is not live. Ensure that no squeezing or kinking of the hoses occurs and screw hose connections tightly. The concentrate and drain lines must be routed with a downward slope to the free wastewater input. The waste water must be allowed to flow off without backpressure.

Page 19: Decommissioning
Decommissioning 5.2.1 Short-term decommissioning (less than two weeks) It is essential to wait until any ongoing regeneration has been completed. Otherwise, there is a risk that hardness or even brine will be fed into the system during recommissioning. Pull out the mains plug Close the shut-off valves in the raw and soft water lines If a supply to the downstream consumers is required, including a raw water supply, open the bypass line (if available). -
Page 20: Recommissioning After A Long Decommissioning Period
5.2.3.2 Recommissioning after a long decommissioning period After a long decommissioning period, regeneration combined with resin disinfection must be carried out before the system can be recommissioned. For the disinfection, we recommend Lubron disinfection tabs (DesiTabs). C heck that the softening system and all hydraulic connections are in proper working order and the salt dissolving tank is completely filled with regenerating salt Using a hose, fill the salt dissolving tank with water from an external supply until the water is above the salt carrier bottom (salt is in contact with the water, brine formation... -
