PREPARATION BRINE CABINET
Picture 1&11
To facilitate the installation, you may want to remove the salt
lid and main cover from the brine cabinet.
1. Remove the salt lid.
2. Unscrew the screw rivets at the front of the main cover.
3. Carefully lift the main cover from the water softener.
CASTER WHEELS (optional on micro & mini only)
In case the water softener is delivered with the optional
caster wheel set, it needs to be mounted on the cabinet upon
installation of the water softener.

1. Position the reinforcement plate on the bottom of the
water softeners cabinet, making sure the 4 holes in the
reinforcement plate align properly with the 4 threaded
sockets in the cabinet.
2. Screw the 4 caster wheels into the threaded sockets;
make sure to install the washers. Tighten firmly. Make
sure the 2 caster wheels with brake are easily accessible.
INLET & OUTLET

In case of high concentration of impurities in the inlet
water, we recommend the installation of a sediment filter,
ahead of the appliance.

We strongly recommend the use of flexible hoses to
connect the appliance to the water distribution system; use
hoses with a large diameter in order to limit the pressure
loss.

The inlet/outlet adaptors are equipped with an
integrated non-return valve, to prevent any kind of backflow
into the water softener or mains water supply; make sure to
install them in the correct flow direction!

If the appliance 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
appliance from the water distribution system in case of
repairs. It allows to turn off the water to the appliance, while
maintaining (untreated) water supply to the user.
WITH FACTORY BYPASS (optional)
Picture 3
 = mains water supply (untreated water)
❖ = inlet of appliance (untreated water)
 = outlet of appliance (treated water)
 = application (treated water)
1. Screw the factory bypass onto the elbow connections of
the appliance (❖&); make sure to install the gasket
seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
2. Screw the connection kit with nuts onto the factory
bypass (&); make sure to install the gasket seals.
Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
3. Connect the mains water supply to the adaptor on the
inlet port of the factory bypass ().
4. Connect the application to the adaptor on the outlet port
of the factory bypass ().

INSTALLATION

WITH 3-VALVE BYPASS SYSTEM (not included)
Picture 4
 = inlet of appliance (untreated water)
❖ = outlet of appliance (treated water)
1. Install the 3-valve bypass system.
2. Screw the connection kit with nuts onto the elbow
connections of the appliance (&❖); make sure to install
the gasket seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
3. Connect the 3-valve bypass system to the adaptors on the
in () and out (❖) elbow connections.
4. Connect the mains water supply to the inlet of the 3-valve
bypass system.
5. Connect the application to the outlet of the 3-valve
bypass system.

We recommend the use of a stand pipe with P-trap.

To prevent backflow from the sewerage system into the
appliance, always install and use the included drain adaptor
with air gap and double hose barb, to connect the drain
hoses to the sewerage system.

Always use separate drain hoses for the control valve
(discharge of rinse water) and the brine cabinet's overflow.

Lay-out the drain hoses in such a way that pressure loss
is minimized; avoid kinks and unnecessary elevations.

Make sure that the sewerage system is suitable for the
rinse water flow rate of the appliance.
Picture 5
1. Install the drain adaptor to the sewerage system; it fits
over a 32 mm pipe or inside a 40 mm pipe adaptor. Ensure
a permanent and watertight connection.
2. Connect a 13 mm hose to the drain solenoid of the control
valve (); secure it by means of a clamp.
3. Run the drain hose to the drain adaptor and connect it to
one of the hose barbs; secure it by means of a clamp. This
drain line operates under pressure, so it may be installed
higher than the appliance.
4. Connect a 13 mm hose to the brine cabinet overflow
elbow; secure it by means of a clamp.
5. Run the drain hose to the drain adaptor and connect it to
the other hose barb; secure it by means of a clamp. This
drain line does NOT operate under pressure, so it may
NOT be installed higher than the appliance.
