water flows back into the valve and out the valve outlet, to the house soft
water pipes.

To begin a regeneration, the electroic timer energizes lhe circuit to lhe 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, lhe port opens for SOFT water fill lhrough the
venmri. Fill flow continues to the brine valve, and into the salt storage tank. Soft
