Installation Requirements

Observe all applicable installation regulations, general
guidelines, hygiene requirements, and technical speci-
fications.

Softening units may not be installed in water supply sys-
tems which provide water for fire extinguishing purposes.

The pipe network must be flushed before the unit is in-
stalled.

The total dissolved iron and manganese may not exceed
0.1mg/l in hard water to be fed into the unit. The hard
water to be fed into the unit must always be free of air
bubbles; if necessary, a bleed device must be installed.

Continuous operation of the softening unit with water
containing chlorine or chlorine dioxide is possible if the
concentration of free chlorine/chlorine dioxide does not
exceed 0.5mg/l.
However, continuous operation with water containing
chlorine/chlorine dioxide causes the ion exchanger resin
to age prematurely. A softening unit reduces the con-
centration of free chlorine and chlorine dioxide. In other
words, the concentration in the outflow of a softening
unit is generally considerably lower than in the inflow.

The unit should be sized so that at least daily regenera-
tion is necessary based on the throughput. If water con-
sumption is reduced, e.g. during holidays, a shut-off
device must be fully opened for at least 5 minutes be-
fore water can be used again.

A protective filter must be installed no further than 1m

upstream from the unit. The filter must be functional be-
fore the water softening unit is installed. This is the only
way to ensure that dirt and corrosive products cannot
enter the softener.

When installing the unit, select a location where the unit
can easily be connected to the water supply network.
A connection to the sewage system (at least DN 50), a
floor drain and a separate mains socket (230V/50Hz)
must be nearby.

The emission of interference (voltage peaks, high-fre-
quency electromagnetic fields, interference voltages,
voltage fluctuations, etc.) by the surrounding electrical
systems may not exceed the maximum values speci-
fied in EN 61000-6-4.
The rated mains power (230V/50Hz) and the requisite
operating pressure must be present at all times. A sepa-
rate means of protection against a lack of water is not
provided and must be installed on-site if required.

If there is no floor drain, a separate safety device
(hydrostop) must be used.

The installation site must be free of frost and kept free of
chemicals, paint, solvents and fumes, and the ambient
temperature must not be too high.

If the softened water is intended for human consump-
tion as defined in the German drinking water regula-
tions, the ambient temperature must not exceed 25°C.

The hose attached to the overflow of the brine container
and the flushing water hose must be routed at an incline
to the sewage system or connected to a pump. Note:

Note:

The flushing water hose must be secured at a distance
of at least 20mm from the highest possible waste water
level (free discharge).

If flushing water is fed into a pump, it must be designed
for a water quantity of at least 2m

/h or 35l/min.). If the

pump is used for other units simultaneously, it must be
sized larger by a factor of their water output quantities.
The pump must be salt-water resistant.

-----

Non-compliance with the installation conditions
and/or the operator responsibilities voids the
warranty.

The wearing parts as outlined in the
“Operator Responsibilities” chapter and the
consequences of failing to replace these parts
on time is not covered by the 2-year legal
warranty.

Cillit does not assume responsibility if the unit
fails or if the capacity becomes deficient due
to incorrect material selection/combination,
floating corrosive products or iron and mineral
deposits, or any resulting damage thereof.

Using regenerative that does not comply with
DIN EN 973 type A voids the warranty.
