Operating Instructions
Water Pressure
Your water filter is designed to operate under normal water pressures from 20 psi to 125 psi.
Regeneration & Automatic Bypass
Water filters are factory set to regenerate at 1:00 a.m. during a period of little or no water use. The regeneration cycle lasts
approximately 15 to 90 minutes depending on valve type, after which filtered water service is restored. While regeneration is taking
place, “raw water” automatically bypasses the filter if required. If possible, avoid using water during regeneration to prevent unfiltered
water entering your household plumbing system.
Manual Bypass
In case of an emergency, you can isolate your water filter from the water
supply using the bypass valve located at the back of the control.
Noryl Bypass (Figure 3)
In normal operation the bypass is open with the on/off knobs in line with the
inlet and outlet pipes. To isolate the filter, simply rotate the knobs clockwise
(as indicated by the word BYPASS and arrow) until they lock.
To resume filtered water service, open the bypass valve by reversing the
rotation of the knobs.
New Sounds
You will notice new sounds, such as the hum of the timer, as your filter
operates. During regeneration, it will not be uncommon to hear water running
to the drain.
