Introduction Operation
Step 1.
Aeration Operation Service Cycle
In the service cycle, raw water enters the inlet port of the aeration tank and is directed through the
inlet diffuser. The oxidation process begins when the water passes through the inlet diffuser and
cascades through a head of air. This air/ water contact oxidizes the iron, manganese, hydrogen
sulfide in the water. The water is directed toward the bottom of the tank and travels through the pick-
up tube. It then passes through the outlet of the aeration tank to the inlet of the filter tank.
Filter Tank Operation Service Cycle

Raw water enters the filter tank through the inlet port of the filter control valve. Upon system demand
for filtered water, water is directed to the top of the tank and flows downward through the multimedia
filter bed toward the lower distributor. Oxidized iron particles are trapped by the filter bed as the
water passes through. Filtered water enters the lower distributor and travels up the distributor tube
to the outlet port on the filter valve.
Step 2.
Aeration Operation Air Recharge Cycle
When energized, the air pump sends air through the solenoid valve into one end of the shuttle valve.
Once air pressure in the shuttle valve is greater than the water supply pressure at the other end
of the shuttle valve, the piston shifts to the open position. In the open position, the bleed-off port
discharges excess water and old air to the drain port through a flow restrictor. Simultaneously, the air
inlet port opens to provide a direct connection between the air pump and the top of the aeration tank.
The air pump runs for a preset period of time recharging the head of air in the aeration tank.
Air Recharge Shut Off

The timer turns power off to the air pump and the solenoid valve at the end of the recharge cycle.
The solenoid valve then closes the port between the air pump and the shuttle valve. The port
between the shuttle valve and the atmosphere opens and releases air pressure. This allows water
pressure to shift the piston to the closed position. With the piston in the closed position, the air
recharge inlet port is closed and direct communication between the bleed off tube and the drain port
is also closed.
Timer Operation
A timer controls the air recharge cycle and how frequently it occurs. The timer simultaneously
energizes the air pump and the solenoid valve. After a preset amount of time, the timer shuts off the
air pump and de-energizes the solenoid valve.
Solenoid Valve Operation

The solenoid valve is a three-way valve having ports that connect to the air pump, shuttle valve and
the atmosphere. In the service cycle, the solenoid valve is de-energized and closes the port to the
air pump, providing a positive shut-off to the pump. This prevents water from backing up into the air
pump and damaging the pump. In the air recharge cycle, the solenoid valve closes the port to the
atmosphere and opens the port from the air pump.

Shuttle Valve Operation
In the service position, water pressure holds the shuttle valve piston in the closed position, trapping
the airhead in the aeration tank and closes the air recharge inlet port and drain port. During air
recharge cycle, air pressure is greater than the water pressure and forces the shuttle valve piston
in the open piston. The shuttle valve has an internal pressure relief valve that will relieve pressure
(greater than 100 psi) that may build up in the aeration tank. This precautionary function protects
components from failure due to excessive pressure.
Step 3.
Filter Tank Operation - Backwash Cycle
Reversing the flow of water through the filter bed and backwashing dirty water to the drain cleans
the filter bed. Raw water enters the filter control valve through the inlet port and is directed down the
distributor tube and out the lower distributor at the bottom of the tank, flowing upward through the
multimedia filter bed toward the top of the tank into the control valve. Water is then directed through
a specific flow restrictor and out the drain port to be discharged to drain.
Step 4.
Filter Tank Operation - Rinse Cycle
The rinse cycle packs the clean filter bed. Raw water enters the control valve through the inlet port
and is directed downward through the filter bed into the bottom distributor, up the distributor tube into
the control valve. Water is then directed through a specific flow restrictor and out the drain port to be
discharged to drain.
Operation Of Aeration Pump

The Iron-Cleer™ system introduces air into the aeration tank and bleeds off the old head of air
automatically. The exchange of the air into the aeration tank is controlled independently of the
recharge frequency of the filter media tank, allowing the air to be exchanged on a more frequent
basis. During an air exchange cycle, the air compressor pumps fresh air into the aeration tank and
the air eliminator solenoid exhausts the old air.
Advantages Over Other Systems

1. No chemicals or salt.
2. No air injectors, venturis, or micronizers.
3. No floats to regulate air volume in aeration tank which “foul” from iron.
4. Two-tank system consisting of a pressurized aeration tank and multi-media depth filter.
5. 110V aeration pump to recharge aeration tank.
6. Can be used on shared wells, municipal water supplies or with buried pressure tanks without
additional equipment.
7. Better filtration results.

Operating The concentration limits listed below reflect the maximum individual limit that each contaminant was
tested for separately without any interference of other contaminants in the influent water.
Conditions
In reality, however, we know that these contaminants may be present in combination which may limit
the filter’s ability to remove these contaminants in higher concentrations. In some cases, individual
sellers of this equipment have had success removing higher concentrations of contaminants - iron,
for example - above the limitations we have listed. If you are considering the installation of this
system for the reduction/removal of iron, manganese and/or hydrogen sulfide beyond the printed
operating conditions below, we recommend that you consult the manufacturer for proper application.
Installation of this system under these circumstances may void part(s) and/or all of the system
warranty.
pH — The pH level of the influent water must be 7.0 - 8.5. A pH level of 7.0 - 8.5 is optimal for iron
reduction.
Iron — This system is rated for a maximum of 10 ppm of ferrous (clear water) and/or ferric (red
water) iron. Consult the factory if iron bacteria is present.
Hydrogen Sulfide — Often referred to as rotten egg odor, hydrogen sulfide will be reduced
significantly on water supplies containing less than 5 ppm. Consult the manufacturer if hydrogen
sulfide concentrations is greater than 5 ppm.
Organic Matter (Tannins) — The presence of organic matter such as tannins will prevent the
oxidation process of converting the dissolved element, such as iron or manganese, to a non-soluble
precipitate or solid substance, allowing it to be filtered out. The Iron Cleer™ is not designed to
remove organic bound iron.

Power Loss Familiarization
The AccuSoft® circuit board is equipped with a Hi-Cap Capacitor and EEPROM memory chip. The
capacitor is capable of maintaining the time, for at least two days, in the event of a power outage.
The EEPROM ensures that the individual programming parameters of your filter are not lost.
If the power outage lasts long enough to drain the Hi-Cap Capacitor, the control will flash “12:00 PM”
when power is returned to the control. The unit will continue to keep time from the moment power is
restored, and will initiate a full regeneration at the preset regeneration time. The time of day will need
to be reset in order to return the regeneration to its preset time.
If you live in an area where power outages occur with a regular frequency, a battery backup option
is available for ensuring that the time of day is properly maintained. Contact your Culligan Dealer for
more information.
Regeneration
To initiate a regeneration at the preset time, press the “REGEN” button. The “REG” light will light. To
initiate an immediate regeneration, press and hold the “REGEN” button for at least five seconds. The
“REG” will light and blink. An immediate regeneration will also occur if a power outage has lasted for
more than four hours and the Immediate Regeneration option is chosen. Ask your Culligan Dealer
about this feature.
A regeneration at the Time of Regeneration will occur if so signaled by the Soft-Minder meter. The
“REG” enunciator on the display will also be lit.
Service
Culligan’s Iron-Cleer® water filter is equipped with a self diagnostic program to insure optimal
operation of your water filter. Should service become necessary, a phone icon will appear in the
display. If this condition occurs, call your local Culligan Dealer for assistance. The phone icon and
error code will be the only items displayed when service is required on the control.

Programming Make sure either inlet water supply is turned off, then supply power to the timer. The display will power
up flashing “12:00 PM” and the motor will energize and cycle the control, without stopping, the home
position. This is required to ensure that the control is in the home position.
The timer uses four buttons:

Things to If you unexpectedly experience problem water, make these simple checks before calling your
Culligan dealer. One of the following conditions may be the reason for your interruption of service.
Check Before
You Call for
Important
Service
If any of the following conditions is found, the water filter should be manually recharged according to
instructions on page 5 after you have corrected the problem.
Power Supply
Check your power supply cord. Is it plugged fully into the electric outlet? Be certain that the outlet
is not controlled by a wall switch which has been turned off. Reset conditioner to proper time of day
and then plug in.
Blown Fuse
Check the house fuse or circuit breaker panel. Replace a blown-out fuse or reset an open circuit
breaker.
Power Failure
Any interruption in your power supply or time changes - such as daylight savings - will disrupt your
filter’s recharge schedule by causing the timer to run off-schedule. Reset timer to proper time of day.
Bypass Valves
Check to see if they are in the proper position. Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass, if used, should be in the
“Service” position. If hand valves are used, see that inlet and outlet valve are opened and that the
bypass valve is closed.
No Water
If you aren’t getting any water flow at all, make sure your water supply is working. Open a tap ahead
of the filter (outside tap) to see if you have any water pressure. If you have water pressure, check
the bypass valve. If it is in the Service position, put it into the bypass and call your Culligan dealer
for service.
Increased Usage
Guests, family additions, new water-using appliances, etc., all will result in more water usage and will
require more capacity from your filter. You can reprogram your recharging schedule by following the
directions on pages 6 and 7. Call your Culligan dealer for advice and save a service call.
10
Following these simple precautions will help assure continued trouble-free service and keep your
Care and
Culligan Water Conditioner looking like new for years.
Cleaning of

harsh, abrasive cleaning compounds or those which contain acid, such as vinegar, bleach and Conditioner
similar products.
2 Important: Protect your water conditioner and the entire drainline from freezing temperatures.
DANGER! If your unit should freeze, do not attempt to disassemble it. Call your Culligan
Dealer.
3 Important: Culligan water filters are sold for use on potable water, only. If at any time the water
becomes contaminated, such as during a “boil water” situation, the operation of the water filter
should be discontinued until it is verified that the water is again potable. To do this, screw the
blue knob on the back of the water filter against the barrel of the bypass valve. Then, call your
Culligan dealer to have your system sanitized before it is placed back into service.
Note: Following the manufacturer’s instructions regarding operation, maintenance and

replacement requirements, including replacement of filters if applicable, is essential for
Culligan’s products to perform as advertised.
4 Should service, adjustment or trouble-shooting information be needed which is not covered in

the Use and Care Guide, call your Culligan Dealer.
If you have further questions, please call your local independently operated Culligan dealer. He or
she will be glad to be of assistance to you.

Preventative Recommended Preventative Maintenance
Maintenance The Culligan Iron Cleer water filter has been designed to provide a good, consistent service life.
Because of the nature of problem water, we recommend that the local Culligan dealer provide
regular maintenance/service contracts for the proper operation of your systems. The water filter
service begins with a multi point inspection of your water filter system in an effort to uncover any
and all problems that may exist. Listed below is a recommended list of maintenance items to be
inspected at a minimum of once a year (or more frequently depending on the raw water quality).

Welcome To Your New World of Better Living with Culligan Water. Thank You
The Culligan High Efficiency (HE) Cullar® filter has been tested and certified by WQA
against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the effective reduction of chlorine taste and odor up
to 120,000 gallons for the 9” filter and 180,000 gallons for the 10” filter.
The Culligan High Efficiency Filtr-Cleer® 9" and 10" models have been tested and
certified by NSF/ANSI Standard 42 against ORD0902 and WQA S-200 for Class V
(≥30µm to <50µm) particulate reductions as verified and substantiated by test data.
For installations in Massachusetts, Massachusetts Plumbing Code 248 CMR shall be ad-
hered to. Consult your licensed plumber for installation of this system. This system and
its installation must comply with state and local regulations. The use of saddle valves is
not permitted.
If this is your first experience having soft, conditioned water in your home, you’ll be amazed at the marvel-
ous difference it makes. We promise that you’ll never want to be without it again.
Congratulations, too, on selecting one of the “first family” of water conditioners in the prestigious Culligan
High Efficiency Water Filters. With Culligan’s many years of knowledge and experience in water treat-
ment, you can be confident that the model you selected has been designed and engineered to provide
years of service with a minimum of care and attention.

Filtr-Cleer® Introduction
The High Efficiency Filtr-Cleer Automatic Water Filter is capable of reducing particulate matter down to
30 microns particle size. It will not remove color, organics, colloidal turbidity or dissolved solids. Some
applications follow:
• Reduction of suspended matters in any water system.
• Reduction of particulate matter, such as clay, mud, etc.
• Prefiltration of oxidized iron ahead of an automatic or manual softener.
• Reduction of light sand.
NOTE If sands cannot be removed from the Filtr-Cleer tank during backwashing, a
sand trap should be installed.
• After the retention tank when a Cul-Cleer® system is used to correct hydrogen sulfide or colloidal
suspension problems.
The quality and number of gallons filtered water between backwashes will depend upon the amount, type,
and size of the particulate matter being filtered. If a water sample is sent to our laboratory, where applica-
tion of a Filtr-Cleer unit is contemplated, write “Filtr-Cleer Analysis” on the sample tag. Send an additional
sample of water for a standard water analysis. The laboratory will test for Nephelometric Turbidity Units
(NTU) and suspended solids (mg/L). The sample will also be filtered through 10 micron filter paper and
NTU run on a filtered sample. If the NTU of the raw water exceeds 150, suspended solids exceed 150
mg/L or the filtered water through the 10 micron filter paper is of an unacceptable quality, a Filtr-Cleer
filter may not be applicable. As a guide, the U.S. Public Health Drinking Water standards states the turbid-
ity should not exceed 1 NTU. The exact number of gallons filtered between backwashes cannot be given
because of many variables.
Cullar® Filter
The High Efficiency Water Filter with Cullar Media will reduce chlorine taste and odor and other common
bad tastes and odors, and will also reduce most objectional organic colors. It will not remove hydrogen
sulfide. It is important to note that whenever the cause of an objectionable taste or odor has not been
established, Health Authorities should determine if water is safe to drink. If bacterial contamination is
present, a Cul-Cleer® system is indicated. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

Following these simple precautions will help assure continued trouble-free service and keep your Culligan Care and
Water filter looking like new for years.
Cleaning of
1. Use only mild soap and warm water when cleaning the exterior of the filter. Never use harsh, Your Water
abrasive cleaning compounds or those which contain acid, such as vinegar, bleach and similar
products. Conditioner
2. Important: Protect your water conditioner and the entire drainline from freezing temperatures.
WARNING! DANGER! If your unit should freeze, do not attempt to

disassemble it. Call your Culligan Dealer.
3. Important: Culligan water filters are sold for use on potable water, only. If at any time the water
becomes contaminated, such as during a “boil water” situation, the operation of the water filter
should be discontinued until it is verified that the water is again potable. To do this, rotate the
blue knob clockwise on the back of the water filter until it stops against the body of the
bypass valve. Then, call your Culligan dealer to have your system sanitized before it is placed
back into service.
4. Should service, adjustment or trouble-shooting information be needed which is not covered in
the Use and Care Guide, call your Culligan Dealer.
If you have further questions, please call your local independently operated Culligan dealer. He or she
will be glad to be of assistance to you. For your nearest Culligan dealer, call (800) 285-5442.
Recommended Preventative Maintenance Inspection Schedule

The Culligan High Efficiency water filter has been designed to provide a good, consistent service life.
Routinely inspecting the system may help avoid potentially costly breakdowns related to circumstances out-
side of the control of the dealer and/or user. The filter is for problem water use and routine maintenance
is required. Contact your local Culligan dealer to perform routine maintenance.
Component Suggested Inspection Reason for Maintenance

Media As needed. Cullneu Filter—As water passes through the Cullneu
filter, the media slowly dissolves and neutralizes the
water. The rate at which the Cullneu media dissolves
depends on a number of factors such as temperature
flow rate and pH. Add media when pH elevation no
longer occurs.
Cullar—Replace when taste odor or chlorine can no
longer be removed.

Things to If you unexpectedly experience changes in your water, make these simple checks before calling your Cul-
ligan dealer. One of the following conditions may be the reason for your interruption of service.
Check Before
You Call for Important
Service If any of the following conditions is found, the water filter should be manually recharged according to
instructions on page 13 after you have corrected the problem.
Power Supply
Check your power supply cord. Is it plugged fully into the electric outlet? Be certain that the outlet is not
controlled by a wall switch which has been turned off. Plug in the transformer then reset conditioner to
proper time of day.
Blown Fuse
Check the house fuse or circuit breaker panel. Replace a blown-out fuse or reset an open circuit breaker.
Power Failure
Any interruption in your power supply or time change—such as daylight savings—will disrupt your filter’s
recharge schedule by causing the timer to run off-schedule. Reset timer to proper time of day.
Bypass Valves
Check to see if they are in the proper position. Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass, if used, should be in the “Service”
position (see page 18). If hand valves are used, see that inlet and outlet valve are opened and that the
bypass valve is closed.
No Water
If you aren’t getting any water flow at all, make sure your water supply is working. Open a tap ahead of
the conditioner (outside tap) to see if you have any water pressure. If you have water pressure, check the
bypass valve. If it is in the Service position, put it into the bypass and call your Culligan dealer for service.
Increased Usage
Guests, family additions, new water-using appliances, etc., all will result in more water usage and will
require more capacity from your filter. You can reprogram your recharging schedule by following the
directions on pages 4–8. Call your Culligan dealer for advice and save a service call.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Clean up spills in a manner that does not disperse dust into the air. Handle in
accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices. These practices include
avoiding unnecessary exposure, and removal of material from eyes, skin, and clothing.
Dispose of virgin (unused) carbon (waste or spillage) in a facility permitted for non-
hazardous wastes. Spent (used) carbon should be disposed of in accordance with
applicable laws. Do not reuse empty bags. Dispose of in facility permitted for non-
hazardous wastes. DO NOT DUMP INTO ANY SEWERS, ON THE GROUND OR
INTO ANY BODY OF WATER. All disposal methods must be in compliance with all
Federal, State, Local and Provincial laws and regulations. Regulations may vary in
different locations. Waste characterizations and compliance with applicable laws are
the responsibility solely of the waste generator.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling: Avoid dispersion into air. Keep containers dry and closed. Follow good
handling and housekeeping practices to minimize spills, generation of airborne dusts,
and accumulation of dusts on exposed surfaces. Use with adequate exhaust ventilation
to draw dust away from workers’ breathing zones. Prevent or minimize exposures to
dusts by using appropriate respirators, gloves, and eye protection. Wash exposed skin
areas thoroughly with soap and water. Use caution when pouring, using pneumatic
transport, swirling, etc. as this material can become electrostatically charged.
Page: 4 of 7
Section 7 - Handling and Storage (cont.)
Storage : Avoid breaking bags or spilling media so as to avoid possibly creating residual
dust. Store in ambient atmospheric conditions. Product should be stored in a closed dry
container. Maintain good housekeeping procedures. Store away from strong oxidizers
such as ozone, liquid oxygen, chlorine, permanganate, etc.
General Comments: Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since
they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed
for the product.
Section 8 - Personal Protection/Exposure Control
Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection

equipment appropriate to the material and/or its concentration where airborne exposure
is likely. If exposures cannot be kept to a minimum with engineering controls, consult
manufacturer to determine appropriate type equipment for a given application. Observe
respirator use limitations specified by NIOSH/MSHA or the manufacturer.
Skin Protection: Wear appropriate dust resistant clothing and gloves.
Eye Protection: Safety glasses with side shields are recommended for any type of
handling. Where eye contact or dusty conditions may be likely, dust tight goggles are
recommended.
Ventilation Protection: Provide ventilation if necessary to minimize exposure. Dilute
ventilation acceptable, but local mechanical exhaust ventilation preferred, if practical, at
sources of air contamination such as open process equipment. The following publication
offers ventilation guidelines and techniques: "INDUSTRIAL VENTILATION, A
MANUAL OF RECOMMENDED PRACTICE" available from the ACGIH.
Other Protection: Safety showers, with quick opening valves which stay open, and eye
wash fountains, or other means of washing the eyes with a gentle flow of cool to tepid
tap water, should be readily available in all areas where this material is handled or
stored. Water should be supplied through insulated and heat-traced lines to prevent
freeze-ups in cold weather.

Clean spills in a manner that does not disperse dust into the air, preferably a wet-down
procedure or va cuum. If material is not contaminated, spilled media can be rebagged.
Material that cannot be used or chemically reprocessed and empty containers should be
disposed of in accordance with all applicable regulations. Product containers should be
thoroughly emptied before disposal. Generators of waste material are required to
evaluate all waste for compliance with RCRA and any local disposal procedures and
regulations. NOTE: State and local regulations may be more stringent than federal
regulations.
Warning: Wet activated carbon depletes oxygen from the air and therefore dangerously
low levels of oxygen may be encountered. Whenever workers enter a vessel containing
activated carbon, the vessel's oxygen content should be determined and work
procedures for potentially low oxygen areas should be followed.

conditions. Insufficient data are available to evaluate or predict the short-term effects of
aluminum oxide to plants, birds, or land animals. Chronic toxic effects may include
shortened lifespan, reproductive problems, lower fertility, and changes in appearance or
behavior. Chronic effects can be seen long after first exposure(s) to a toxic chemical.
