3.
Wire brine reclamation valves (if applicable).
4.
Install communication cables between valves
5.
Plug in all valves to GFCI approved wall receptacle.
6.
Open system bypass and isolate off softener inlets/outlets.
Startup
1.
Set time of day on Valve #1.
2.
Initiate Manual Regeneration, advance to regeneration cycle 3 (Rapid Rinse) and slowly open softener inlet valve (roughly halfway)
to fill mineral tank with water
3.
Once water is running to the drain, advance from regeneration cycle 3 (Rapid Rinse) back to the home screen. Reinitiate a manual
regeneration and remain in cycle 1 (Backwash). With inlet valve halfway open, allow water flow and air expulsion. Verify all air
is purged.
4.
Once all air is purged, fully open softener inlet valve to allow full backwash flow to drain. Continue until discharge water is free
and clear of resin/debris.
5.
Advance to regeneration cycle 4 (Brine Tank Refill). Allow approximately 6 inches of water to fill in brine tank.
6.
Advance back through Service cycle (home screen) and cycle 1 (Backwash), to cycle 2 (Brine and Rinse). Verify water is properly
drawn from brine tank.
7.
Close softener inlet bypass valve again. Repeat steps 2 – 5 for any additional valves, addressing each valve individually.
8.
When purging and testing the final valve, allow cycle 2 (Brine & Rinse) to run until brine tank is dry.
9.
Once step 7 is complete, advance final valve to cycle 4 (Brine Tank Refill) and allow cycle to run completely, so that brine tank
has correct service water level upon completion.
10.
Open system inlets/outlets and close system bypass.
Operation Verification
1.
Run softened water fixtures in facility and verify proper meter operation for each valve, individually (use regen button to advance
to different valves).
2.
If possible, run larger loads in facility to verify Progressive Flow (tank staging) is functioning correctly, per the flow rates indicated
in the system specifications (Note, if necessary, valves may be temporarily re-programmed to actuate Progressive Service at
lower flow rates, for confirmation of operation. This requires entering the system Master Programming Functionality. It also
requires returning all set points to their previous levels when completed! Contact WCC for more details).
3.
If Brine Reclamation system is installed, initiate regeneration steps 2–4 (Brine Draw, Rapid Rinse, and Brine Refill) on Valve #1.
Observe steps 2–4 to ensure that Brine Reclamation solenoid valves are functioning properly.
