Aqua-Pure CSX200 - Manual (Page 4)

SECTION 1: GENERAL INFORMATION
Congratulations on your purchase of an Aqua-Pure ® CSX Series Sulfur Reduction System! The sulfur reduction system reduces the levels of hydrogen sulfi de
gas (sulfur) from your water supply. Contrary to conventional methods, your sulfur reduction system requires NO retention tank, or chemical regenerant.
When properly installed, operated and maintained, the sulfur reduction system will provide many years of dependable service. Read this manual carefully and
follow the installation steps in the proper order. Failure to follow instructions will void warranty.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION OF THE SYSTEM:
The sulfur reduction system consists of two major components:
1) An automatic backwashing type media tank containing a special media that traps the precipitated sulfur from the water and functions on the principal of
depth fi ltration rather than surface fi ltration. The media DOES NOT require a chemical regenerant (such as potassium permanganate) for oxygen enrich-
ment, as is necessary for a greensand fi lter system. Periodically the media tank backwashes automatically for a few minutes (generally 14 minutes) which
fl ushes the precipitated sulfur to the drain.
2) The second component consists of an electronic feed pump and solution tank for feeding a sulfur reduction media into the water supply line. When the
sulfur reduction media comes into contact with the hydrogen sulfi de gas, it causes the hydrogen sulfi de gas to form a precipitate. The precipitate is then
collected in the media tank as described above. The sulfur reduction media contains no chlorine, and therefore requires no holding tank or activated
carbon post-treatment fi ltration.
IMPORTANT NOTE IMPORTANT NOTE
If this installation has a hydrogen sulfi de gas concentration of 10 ppm or higher and/or high daily water consumption (such as in a large family), it
may be more economical to install an aerator ahead of the sulfur reduction system. The aerator pretreatment will reduce the hydrogen sulfi de gas
concentration by as much as 50 to 75%, thus reducing the consumption of sulfur reduction media by a like amount. If the result of multiplying the
number of people in the family by the sulfur concentration (in ppm) exceeds 50 (Example: 6 people x 12 ppm = 72), an atmospheric aerator may be
recommended. Contact your dealer for more information.
