INSTALLATION
Page 5
INLET & OUTLET
Check the water pressure at the place of installation of
the water softener; it should never exceed 8,3 bar.
In case of high concentration of impurities in the inlet
water, we recommend the installation of a sediment filter,
ahead of the water softener.
We strongly recommend the use of flexible hoses to
connect the water softener to the water distribution
system; use hoses with a large diameter in order to limit
the pressure loss.
If the water softener is not equipped with the factory
bypass (optional), we strongly recommend to install a 3-
valve bypass system (not included with this product!) to
isolate the water softener from the water distribution
system in case of repairs. It allows to turn off the water to
the water softener, while maintaining (untreated) water
supply to the user.
WITH FACTORY BYPASS KIT (optional)
= mains water supply (untreated water)
= elbow connection-inlet (untreated water)
= inlet of water softener (treated water)
= outlet of water softener (treated water)
= elbow connection-outlet (treated water)
= house/application (treated water)
1.
Screw the elbow connections onto the control valve;
the long elbow onto the inlet port (
), the short elbow
onto the outlet port (
); make sure to install the
gasket seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
2.
Screw the factory bypass onto the elbow connections
(
&
); make sure to install the gasket seals. Tighten
the nuts firmly by hand.
3.
Screw the brass connection kit with nuts onto the
factory bypass (
&
); make sure to install the
gasket seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
4.
Connect the mains water supply to the brass nipple
on the inlet port of the factory bypass (
).
5.
Connect the house/application to the brass nipple on
the outlet port of the factory bypass (
).
WITH 3-VALVE BYPASS SYSTEM (not included)
= mains water supply (untreated water)
= inlet of water softener (untreated water)
= outlet of water softener (treated water)
= house/application (treated water)
1.
Install the 3-valve bypass system.
2.
Screw the brass connection kit with nuts onto the
control valve (
&
); make sure to install the gasket
seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
3.
Connect the 3-valve bypass system to the brass nipples
on the elbow connections (
&
).
4.
Connect the mains water supply to the inlet of the 3-
valve bypass system (
).
5.
Connect the house/application to the outlet of the 3-
valve bypass system (
