The Fleck 5600SXT Digital Metered Valve is a control head designed for use with water softener systems. It features a digital interface, which allows users to program and monitor their water-softening systems with ease. The valve is designed to manage the flow of water through the system and control the regeneration cycles based on water usage.

Functions:

1. Metered Regeneration:
   • Monitors water usage and triggers regeneration cycles as needed.
   • Helps in conserving water and salt by avoiding unnecessary regeneration.
2. Digital Control:
   • LCD display provides easy access to system status and settings.
   • Allows users to customize regeneration settings based on their water usage and hardness levels.
3. Flow Control:
   • Manages the flow of water through the softening system.
   • Ensures consistent water pressure and quality throughout the home.

Applications:

• Residential Water Softening:

  • Used in homes to manage and optimize water softener systems.
  • Ensures soft water availability by effectively removing calcium and magnesium ions.

• Commercial Water Softening:

  • Applied in businesses and commercial settings where soft water is essential.
  • Helps in preventing scale build-up in plumbing and appliances.

• Industrial Applications:

  • Used in various industries where water hardness must be controlled.
  • Protects industrial equipment from scale and mineral build-up.

Installation:

1. Positioning:
   • The valve should be installed at the point where the water supply enters the property.
2. Connection:
   • Connect the valve to the bypass and plumbing system.
   • Ensure that the inlet and outlet are connected correctly to avoid backward installation.
3. Drain Line:
   • Connect the drain line and ensure it is directed to an appropriate drain or outlet.
4. Brine Line:
   • Connect the brine line from the brine tank to the valve.
5. System Startup:
   • Slowly open the water supply and check for any leaks.
   • Manually initiate a regeneration cycle to ensure the system is functioning correctly.

Programming:

1. Setting the Time of Day:

   • Use the control panel to set the current time of day.

2. Hardness Setting:

   • Input the water hardness level, which can be determined through a water test.

3. Regeneration Time:

   • Set the time when you want the system to regenerate (typically during low usage periods, like nighttime).

4. Regeneration Frequency:

   • Depending on the model, you may set a regeneration frequency or let the system automatically determine it based on water usage.

5. Additional Settings:

   • Depending on your specific model, there may be additional settings to optimize system performance.
