    After switching on the instrument and after each power failure, the plant automatically returns to the last active position. Operating modes (plant type) The Softmaster MMP1 controller can control the following softening plants: Single-filter plant Only one filter is in operation. Soft water is not available during regeneration.
  • Page 16: Hardness Unit

    Hardness unit The raw water hardness can be entered and displayed in various units: HARDNESS UNIT German hardness = dH °dH ✓ French hardness = f (1.79 = 1° dH) ppm as CaCO3 = ppmCaCO3 (17.9 ppmCaCO3, 1° dH) °f The exchanger capacity has to be entered (in the next menu item) according to ppmCaCO3 the unit.
  • Page 17: Regeneration Delay

    Quality-controlled regeneration With the internal control function combined with a water hardness measuring instrument (e.g. Testomat 2000 / ECO) it is possible to install a convenient and reliable plant. The water hardness measuring instrument monitors the soft water hardness and sends a start signal to the controller to trigger regeneration once the set limit value has been reached. By combining the various control possibilities you can ensure the largest possible operational reliability.
  • Page 18: Regeneration Interval

    Regeneration interval To prevent improper bacterial contamination of the resin bed during longer downtimes, REG. INTERVAL regeneration can be carried out at fixed daily intervals. The regeneration interval (0 - 99 days) complies to the operational conditions and Days national regulations for the drinking water supply (e.g. DVGW, DIN, etc.).
