2 SOFTENER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE • ONTARIO • CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM 1) INSTALLATION 1.1) Pre-installation instructions The cycle times, sequence of cycles, salt dose refill time and exchange capacity are preset to by Excalibur. The dealer must guide the installer to change the values according to the hardness, day override and time of regeneration. WATER TEST Hardness gpg Iron ppm pH number Nitrates ppm Manganese ppm Sulphur yes/no Total Dissolved Solids 1.2) General Installation and Service Warnings • The softener is designed so that it can be installed easily with minor plumbing changes on previous plumbing. • The piping must be clamped properly and the weight of the plumbing must not be on the softener. • Do not use any kind of lubricant including silicone. A silicone based lubricant can be only used on black O-Rings but not necessary. • Do not use pipe dope or other sealant on plastic nuts and caps. Teflon tape must be used only on NPT threads. • The nuts and caps can be fastened and unfastened by hand or the plastic service wrench. Do not use pipe wrench to tighten the caps and nuts. 1.3) Site Requirements • Water Pressure: - 40-110 psi • Water Temperature: - 40-110°F (4.4-43°C) • Electrical- 115/120 V, 60Hz Uninterrupted Outlet. • Current required is 0.5 Amperes with plug-in transformer (dry locations only). • The tank should be on a firm level surface.

Polyethylene tube according to specification sheet from the brine tank to the control valve. 1.8) Overflow Line Connection • Only used where brine tank overflow water spillage can damage flooring or structure. • Brine tank is equipped with safety float valve which prevents the overflow in case if control valve fails to control the refill cycle. • In case if safety float also fails to stop refill then only the water will come through overflow line connection. 1.9) Drain Line • The ½” tubing must be used for drain line. • Leave minimum of 6” gap between flow control fitting and solder joints. The gap less than this can damage the flow control. • If the drain line is elevated and then emptied into the drain below the level the of control valve then 7” loop should make at the end of drain line. • The air gap between the drain and the end of the drain line must be twice the diameter of the tube. • The drain line must be clamped or strap tied at the end to secure in position.

6 SOFTENER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE • ONTARIO • CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM 1.10) Bypass Valve NORMAL OPERATION The inlet and outlet handles of bypass valve should be pointing the direction of flow indicated by the engraved arrows on the control valve. Water flows through the control valve in normal operation as a water softener. BYPASS OPERATION The inlet and outlet handles point to the center of the bypass valve. The system is isolated from the water pressure in the plumbing system. Untreated water is supplied to the house in this position. DIAGNOSTIC MODE The inlet handle points in the direction of flow and the outlet handle points to the center of bypass valve, system water pressure is allowed to the control valve and the plumbing system while not allowing water to exit from the control valve to the plumbing. Untreated water is supplied to the house in this position. SHUT OFF MODE The inlet handle points to the center of the bypass valve and the outlet handle points in the direction of flow, the water is shut off to the plumbing system. If water is available on the outlet side of the Softener, it is an indication of water bypass around the system.

7 SOFTENER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE • ONTARIO • CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM 1.11) Start Up Instructions • Keep the bypass valve in bypass operation by moving both handles pointing towards the center of bypass valve. Now the untreated water is being supplied to house. Open the faucet downstream of the softener until water comes clear out of it. The initial water can be dirty because of installation debris. Now inspect the leaks in plumbing. • Manually add approximate 6 inches of water to brine tank so that level reaches air check valve. • Press and hold the “REGEN” button down for 5 seconds to start manual regeneration. The drive motor will start to reach backwash cycle and countdown time begins. Turn the inlet bypass valve handle halfway into the direction of diagnose operation. Once the steady water flows out of drain then fully turn both handles of bypass valve into the direction of service operation. Caution: - If water flow is too rapidly, there will be a loss of resin to drain. • When the water become clear in drain line then press the regen button to advance the regeneration to brine cycle. Lift off the brine tank lid to check if water is being drawn from brine tank and shut off the faucet after confirming the brine draw flow. • Press REGEN button to advance the regeneration to 2nd backwash cycle. Wait until the countdown time starts. • Press REGEN button again to advance the regeneration to rinse cycle with water coming through the drain. Allow this process for the full amount of time during this cycle. • The control valve will automatically advance the regeneration to the fill cycle. Allow to fill for the full amount of time in this cycle. Once finished the control valve will automatically come to the service position with the time of day being displayed. • Add the salt to Brine Tank.

13 SOFTENER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE • ONTARIO • CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM 4) CONTROL VALVE CYCLES In Service Cycle water flows through the upper basket and flows down to the bottom distributor. In this operation hardness of water is removed by resin. In Backwash Cycle water flows in upflow direction, the water enters the tank from bottom distributor and collected by upper basket. This operation lifts the bed and wash the resin. The water goes out through the drain line. Note: - Backwash, Brine and Rinse cycles bypass the supply water to the demand.

14 SOFTENER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE • ONTARIO • CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM In Brine Cycle water flows in downflow direction which siphon the brine solution from brine tank and slow rinse water goes to the drain. In Rinse Cycle water flows rapidly in downflow direction through the resin to the drain. This cycle washes the excess sodium from the resin particles. Fill Cycle (Not Shown): - The water flow same as Service operation but water also flows to the brine tank for refilling.
