Hard water enters the valve inlet port. Internal valve porting routes the water
down and out the top distributor, into the resin tank. Hard water is softened
as it passes through the resin bed, then enters the bottom distributor. Soft
water flows back into the valve and out the valve outlet, to the house soft
water pipes.

POSITION
SWITCH
To begin a regeneration, the electroic timer energizes the circuit to the valve
motor. The valve motor rotates the rotor and disc and the valve cam until the
position switch lever drops, to open the motor circuit and position the valve in
FILL. As the rotor and disc rotates, the port ()pens for SOFT water fill through the
venturi. Fill flow continues to the brine valve, and into the salt storage tank. Soft
water is still available to the house lines.
