BYPASS VALVE
The bypass valve is typically used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system’s water pressure in order to perform control valve repairs or maintenance. The 1″ full flow bypass valve incorporates four positions, including a diagnostic position that allows a service technician to have pressure to test a system while providing untreated bypass water to the building. Be sure to install bypass valve onto main control valve before beginning plumbing or make provisions in the plumbing system for a bypass. The bypass body and rotors are glass-filled Noryl® and the nuts and caps are glass-filled polypropylene. All seals are self-lubricating EPDM to help prevent valve seizing after long periods of non-use. Internal “O” Rings can easily be replaced if service is required.
The bypass consists of two interchangeable plug valves that are operated independently by red arrow shaped handles. The handles identify the direction of flow. The plug valves enable the bypass valve to operate in four positions.
1. NORMAL OPERATION POSITION: The inlet and outlet handles point in the direction of flow indicated by the engraved
arrows on the control valve. Water flows through the control valve for normal operation of a water softener or filter. During the regeneration cycle this position provides regeneration water to the unit, while also providing untreated water to the distribution system (Fig. 1).
2. BYPASS POSITION: The inlet and outlet handles point to the center of the bypass. The system is isolated from the water
pressure in the plumbing system. Untreated water is supplied to the building (Fig. 2).
3. DIAGNOSTIC POSITION: The inlet handle points toward the control valve and the outlet handle points to the center of bypass
valve. Untreated supply water is allowed to flow to the system and to the building, while not allowing water to exit from the system to the building (Fig. 3). This allows the service technician to test the unit and perform other functions without disrupting the water going to the building.
NOTE: The system must be rinsed before returning the bypass valve to the normal position.
4. SHUT OFF POSITION: The inlet handle points to the center of the bypass valve and the outlet handle points away from the
control valve. The water is shut off to the building. The water treatment system will depressurize upon opening a tap in the building. A negative pressure in the building combined with the unit being in regeneration could cause a siphoning to the building. If water is available on the outlet side of the unit, it is an indication of water bypassing the system (Fig. 4) (i.e. a plumbing cross-connection somewhere in the building).

INSTALLATION

GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The control valve, fittings and/or bypass are designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments. There is a small amount of “give” to properly connect the piping, but the water treatment unit is not designed to support the weight of the plumbing.
Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants, or spray silicone anywhere. A silicone lubricant may be used on black “O” Rings, but is not necessary. Avoid any type of lubricants, including silicone, on red or clear lip seals.
Do not use pipe dope or other sealants on threads. Teflon® tape must be used on the threads of the 1″ NPT inlet and outlet and on the threads for the drain line connection. Teflon® tape is not used on the nut connections or caps because “O” Ring seals are used. The nuts and caps are designed to be unscrewed or tightened by hand or with the special plastic Service Wrench,

100249864 (CV3193-02). If necessary, pliers can be used to unscrew the nut or

cap. Do not use a pipe wrench to tighten nuts or caps. Do not place screwdriver in slots on caps and/or tap with a hammer.

MUNICIPAL INSTALLATION

1. The distance between the drain and the water conditioner should be as short as possible (see #9). 2. Since salt must be added periodically to the brine tank, it should be in an easily accessible location. 3. The media tank should be installed on a firm, level surface (above or below grade). 4. It is NOT recommended to install any water treatment unit with less than 10 feet of piping between its outlet and the inlet of a water heater.

CAUTION: To protect the unit in the event of a hot water heater backup, the manufacturer recommends the use of an expansion tank on the outlet side of the unit (see diagram).

5. Do not locate unit where it or its connections (including the drain and overflow lines) will ever be subjected to temperatures under 33°F.
6. Do not subject the tank to any vacuum as this may cause an “implosion” and could result in leaking. If there is a possibility a vacuum could occur, please make provision for a vacuum breaker in the installation.
7. INLET/OUTLET PLUMBING: Be sure to install Bypass Valve onto main control valve before beginning plumbing. If it is desired to bypass outside hydrants, a cold water kitchen sink, or other locations, provisions should be made at this time. Install an inlet shutoff valve and plumb to the unit’s bypass valve inlet located at the right rear as you face the unit. There are a variety of installation fittings available. They are listed under the Installation Fitting Assemblies section of the manual. When assembling the installation fitting package (inlet and outlet), connect the fitting to the plumbing system first and then attach the nut, split ring and “O” Ring. Heat from soldering or solvent cements may damage the nut, split ring or “O” Ring. Solder joints should be cool and solvent cements should be set before installing the nut, split ring and “O” Ring. Avoid getting solder flux, primer, and solvent cement on any part of the “O” Rings, split rings, bypass valve or control valve. If the building’s electrical system is grounded to the plumbing, install a copper grounding strap from the inlet to the outlet pipe. Plumbing must be done in accordance with all applicable local codes.

INSTALLATION

8 INSTALLING GROUND: To maintain an electrical ground in metal plumbing of a home’s cold water piping (such as a copper plumbing system), install a ground clamp or jumper wiring.
NOTE: If replacing an existing unit, also replace the ground clamps/wire. If removing a unit, replace the piping with the same type of piping as the original to assure plumbing integrity and grounding.

GROUND STRAP
SHUTOFF VALVE

9. DRAIN LINE: First, be sure that the drain can handle the backwash rate of the system. Solder joints near the

drain must be done prior to connecting the drain line flow control fitting. Leave at least 6″ between the drain

line flow control fitting and solder joints. Failure to do this could cause interior damage to the flow control.

Install a 1/2″ I.D. tube to the Drain Line Assembly in accordance with plumbing regulations or discard the tubing

nut and use the 3/4″ NPT fitting for rigid pipe (recommended). If the backwash rate is greater than 7 gpm, use a 3/4″ drain line. Where the drain line is elevated but empties into a drain below the level of the control valve, form

GROUND STRAP

a 7″ loop at the discharge end of the line so that the bottom of the loop is level with the drain connection on the control valve. This will provide

an adequate anti-siphon trap. Piping the drain line overhead <10 ft is normally not a problem. Be sure adequate pressure is available (40-60 psi is

recommended). Where the drain empties into an overhead sewer line, a sink-type trap must be used with appropriate air gap (see drawing). Run

drain tube to its discharge point in accordance with plumbing codes. Pay special attention to codes for air gaps and anti-siphon devices.

CAUTION: Never insert a drain line into a drain, sewer line, or trap. Always allow an air gap of 1-1/2″ or twice the pipe diameter, whichever is greater, between the drain line and the wastewater to prevent the possibility of sewage being back-siphoned into the softener.

Connection at Brine Safety Float in brine tank

11. OVERFLOW LINE CONNECTION: An overflow drain line is recommended where a brine overflow could damage furnishings or the building structure. Your unit is equipped with a brine tank safety float which greatly reduces the chance of an accidental brine overflow. In the event of a malfunction, however, an overflow line connection will direct the “overflow” to the drain instead of spilling on the floor where it could cause considerable damage. This fitting is an elbow on the side of the brine tank. Attach a length of 1/2″ I.D. tubing to fitting and run to drain. Do not elevate overflow line higher than 3″ below bottom of overflow fitting. Do not connect this tube into the drain line of the control valve. Overflow line must be a direct, separate line from overflow fitting to drain, sewer, or tub. The overflow line is a gravity drain and cannot run higher than the initial drain point. Allow an air gap as per the drain line instructions.

The system is now ready for filling with water and for testing.

1. With the softener in the bypass mode (Fig. 2 on page 4) and the control valve in normal operation where the display shows either the time of day or the gallons remaining, manually add 3″ of water to the brine tank.
NOTE: If too much water is put into the brine tank during softener start up, it could result in a “salty water” complaint after the first regeneration.
During the first regeneration, the unit will draw out the initial volume of brine/regenerant and refill it with the correct preset amount.

2. With the softener in bypass mode, press and hold the button until the motor starts. Release button. The display reads “FILL” and the remaining time in this step is counting down. Since the brine tank was already filled in Step 1, press again and the display will read SOFTENING 240 (During a full regeneration this will be a 4 hour period for salt to dissolve). Press again to put the valve into “BACKWASH.” Once valve has stopped in position, unplug the transformer so that the valve will not cycle to the next position. Open the inlet handle of the bypass valve very slightly allowing water to fill the tank slowly in order to expel air.
CAUTION: If water flows too rapidly, there will be a loss of media to the drain.
3. When the water is flowing steadily to the drain without the presence of air, slowly open the inlet valve. Restore power and momentarily press the button to advance the control to the “BRINE” position.

4. With the bypass now in diagnostic mode (Fig. 3 on page 4), check to verify that water is being drawn from brine tank with no air leaks or bubbles in the brine line. There should be a slow flow to the drain. Disconnect brine line from the safety float valve in the brine tank and check for a vacuum. After proper confirmation, reconnect brine line making sure to insert properly.

5. Momentarily press again until the display reads “RINSE.” There should be a rapid flow to the drain. Unplug transformer to keep the valve in the “RINSE” position. Allow to run until steady, clear and without air. While the unit is rinsing, load the brine tank with
water softener salt (Refer to Brine Tank Maintenance and Salt Section). Restore power.

6. Place bypass valve in the normal operating mode (Fig. 1 on page 4) by opening the outlet bypass handle. Press and the unit will return to the service position with time of day being displayed.

7. CONDITIONING OF MEDIA: To flush any remaining debris and air from the system again: 1. Full open a cold water faucet, preferably at a laundry sink or bathtub without an aerator. 2. Wait two to three minutes or until water runs clear, then turn water off. 3. Turn on hot water and check for air, then turn water off after air is discharged.

If the system has called for a regeneration that will occur at the preset time of regeneration, the words “REGEN TODAY” will appear on the display. If a water meter is installed, “GPM” flashes on the display when water is being treated, indicating gallons per minute flowing through the system.

2 . VACATION MODE: This feature may be used to “shut down”the system for a period of time by preventing the unit from regenerating. The
manufacturer has factory set “OFF” as the default. Turn feature “OFF” or “ON” using the + or buttons. When turned “ON”, the unit will remain
in Vacation Mode until it is exited. There are two ways that a unit can exit Vacation Mode:
Manually: The user may manually exit Vacation Mode by changing the setting from “ON” to “OFF”. Once switched off, a delayed regeneration will queue for that night. Vacation mode may also be manually exited by holding the REGEN button to force an immediate regeneration.
Automatically: The unit will automatically exit Vacation Mode once water usage has resumed. After fifty gallons of water is used, the unit will set to resume normal operation and a delayed regeneration will queue for that night.
NOTE: In some instances, if a regeneration has been queued and the unit is taken out of Vacation Mode (manually or automatically), the unit will trigger an immediate regeneration instead of a delayed regeneration. For example, if the unit’s maximum Days Between Regeneration is reached while the unit is in Vacation Mode, an immediate regeneration will trigger as soon as the unit is taken out of Vacation Mode.

CAUTION: Depending on the severity of water conditions and the length of no water usage, it may not be recommended to use this feature. Please contact dealer or manufacturer for more information.

3 . REGENERATION MODE: Typically, a system is set to regenerate at a time of no water usage. If there is a demand for water when the system is regenerating, untreated water will be delivered. When the system begins to regenerate, the display will include information about the step of the regeneration process and the time remaining for that step to be completed. The system runs through the steps automatically and will reset itself to provide treated water when the regeneration has been completed.

OPERATING DISPLAYS AND MAINTENANCE:

4 . MANUAL REGENERATION: Sometimes there may be a need to regenerate a unit before the control valve calls for it. This may be needed if a period of heavy water use is anticipated or when the system has been operating without salt.

REGEN TODAY and TIME OF DAY will flash alternately if a regeneration is expected tonight.

· To initiate a manual regeneration at the next preset regeneration time, press and release the REGEN button. The words “REGEN TODAY” will flash on the display to indicate that the system will regenerate at the scheduled regeneration time (see the Programming Procedures section). If you pressed the REGEN button in error, pressing and releasing the button again will cancel the command.

REGEN TODAY

MON

8 GPM 2:40 PM

MANUAL REGEN

· To initiate a manual regeneration immediately, press and hold the REGEN button for three seconds. The system will begin to regenerate immediately. This command cannot be canceled.

Once a manual regeneration is initiated, the unit will enter the FILL position. This position allows water to enter the brine tank until it reaches the proper level. Once this position is complete, you will notice a 240 minute (4 hours) SOFTENING position. This 4 hour window allows the salt to dissolve and achieve proper brine strength. During these FILL and SOFTENING positions, you will have softened water available for use. Once the unit advances to the BACKWASH position and subsequent positions thereafter (see Start Up Instructions for regeneration sequence), the unit will deliver water, but it will be untreated.
IMPORTANT: With the Dry Salt Storage Feature, the brine tank will refill 4 hours before the actual regeneration occurs. You may experience a small amount of noise for a short period of time at 10:00 p.m. (with factory settings) on the night that the regeneration is to occur. This noise is only the brine tank filling and at no time during this process will you be without treated water.

5 . POWER LOSS AND BATTERY REPLACEMENT: If an extended power outage occurs, the control valve will retain the time of day settings until the board’s battery is depleted. Once the battery is depleted, the display will appear dark and absent of any information. If this occurs, following these steps will determine if the problem is a low battery or a board failure.

To determine if the battery is depleted: 1. Remove valve cover. Disconnect power from PC Board at the four pin connector at the bottom of the board.

2. Wait five minutes for board to de-energize. Remove battery with a non- conductive/non-metallic material. Reference the Parts Breakdown section of this manual for location.

3. Wait five minutes for board to de-energize.

4. With the battery out, re-connect the power supply to the board. The board’s display should begin to show information.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

This indicates that the board is operating correctly. If the display does not work, call installing dealer for service.

5. To replace with new battery, unplug transformer from outlet. Install a 3 volt Lithium Coin Cell type 2032 battery, available at most stores. Plug unit back into outlet.

It is important to replace the battery with the valve unplugged to avoid causing a short and potentially ruining the board.

6. Reset the time of day (see programming procedures) and initiate regeneration (see operating displays and maintenance).

If these procedures do not remedy the problem, please consult the installing dealer for service.

6 . ERROR MESSAGE: If the word “ERROR” appears and flashes alternately with the dealer name and phone
number, record the ERRORnumber and contact your servicing dealer promptly. This indicates that the control valve was not able to function properly.

OPERATING DISPLAYS AND MAINTENANCE:

7 . BRINE TANK MAINTENANCE AND SALT: Refill the brine tank as necessary, making sure at least 1/3 of the brine tank is full at all times. Without proper salt levels, the water softener may not operate properly.

Because “typical” settings of this water softener include a dry salt storage feature (a small amount of water in brine tank between regeneration), the manufacturer recommends the use of solar salt for best results. The brine tank is manufactured for the use of solar, pellets or rock salt.Do not use block salt. If pellet or rock salt is used, a cleaning of the brine tank every six months is recommended. If the dry salt storage feature is not
being utilized, block salt may be used.

Caution: With some models the manufacturer does NOT recommend the use of any resin cleaners, nor placing any resin cleaners into the brine tank. Furthermore, do not use any salt that indicates it is an iron cleaning salt or that contains any cleaning additives. This may be harmful to the water softener and for human consumption. Consult dealer for proper cleaning instructions.

8 . CHECK SALT INDICATOR AND AUDIBLE ALARM: This control valve is equipped with a low salt warning to alert homeowners that the system is operating in a low salt condition. This usually indicated that the salt level in the brine tank is too low to operate properly. If “CHECK SALT” appears on the screen, there will usually be an audible alarm that sounds also (if turned on), alerting you to these conditions.

CHECK
SALT

TO TURN OFF ALARM: If the audible alarm sounds due to a low salt condition, press any button on the

SALT ALARM SCREEN

face of the control valve to turn off. If the salt is not added to the brine tank before

the next regeneration, the CHECK SALT indicator will alarm again. This will repeat until

the problem is corrected.

Manufacturer recommends the use of coarse solar salt in these water softeners.
CSE and CSP -844, -948, -1044, -1054, -1252, -1354, CSEC and CSPC -835, -1035, and CSERC and CSPRC -1054 and -1354 softeners are certified by WQA against NSF/ ANSI Standard 44 for the reduction of hardness as verified and substantiated by test data.
Only the efficiency-rated water softener models have a rated capacity of not less than 3,350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on NaCl) and shall not deliver more salt or be operated at a sustained maximum service flow rate greater than its listed rating. Efficiency is measured by a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maximum possible efficiency the system can achieve after the system has been installed. The operational efficiency is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener’s capacity.
These water softeners are not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

1 All TotalCare water conditioners are pre-factory set at medium salting. Note: Influent waters must be at least 3 GPG hardness and 80 TDS. A calcite or corosex unit may be needed for correct operation. 2 Combined iron and manganese removal varies depending on the form of iron, manganese, pH and other local conditions. On waters that are pre-chlorinated or where other pre- oxidation occurs, precipitated metal oxides may form that are too fine to be filtered. 3 The pH listed is the minimum for the influent water. 4 Optimum pH adjustment occurs at 3.0 gpm or less at maximum salt settings. Higher flow rates will produce less pH adjusted water. 5 Unit not tested for capacity at these flow rates. Water quality may vary.
