Proper underbedding media will be provided to aid in the even collection of water and make efficient use of the filtering capability of the media. E. Filter Media: Each filter tank will have a multi-layer media bed, which is designed to operate as a depth filter rather than as a surface filter. The top layer will collect coarse turbidity. The middle layer will accumulate particles normally trapped by sand filters. The bottom layer of high density fine material will polish the water by removing particles down to 10 microns in size. Mineral density, particle size, uniformity coefficient and depth of each layer will be carefully controlled to ensure proper stratification after backwash and optimum performance in service. F. Softening Media: Each softener tank will be provided with resin having a minimum exchange capacity of 1.06 x106 grains/cu.m. when regenerated with 7 kgs of salt.

During refill, the brine valve will regulate the flow of treated water into the brine tank, working with the time refill feature of the control valve. Together these components will admit the correct volume of water to the brine tank in

accordance with the salt dosage settings on the control valve. The brine valve will include a float-operated safety shut-off valve, as a back-up to the time refill valve on the control, to prevent overflowing of the brine tank. I. Filter Automatic Controls: 1. The filter will be equipped with an electrical control to operate the opening and closing of a diaphragm valve nest by means of a pilot valve. In addition, the filter will be equipped with flow controls to regulate the flow of water during the backwash and purge cycles. They will be factory selected to prevent mineral loss and restrict wastewater discharge. Accuracy will be within 15% of the rated flow over the operating pressure range of the system. 2. The electrical control mechanism will be enclosed in a gasketed moisture-resistant case. The enclosure will conform to NEMA 3R enclosure standards. The unit will have provisions for individual adjustment of backwash and rinse cycles, and provisions for manually regenerating the water filter by means of inlet hydraulic pressure, even without the use of electric power.

Inlet and outlet pressure gauges with isolation valves will be supplied 3. The system shall include for a programmable electronic controller and turbine type flow meters to be installed in the outlet (service) pipe of the unit, which will allow control of backwashing to be on water use. It will include turbine meter(s) and a solid state control device to permit regeneration on a metered volume basis. The system will include one turbine to allow two tanks to regenerate on an alternating basis. Softener Automatic Controls: 1. The automatic control will be of top mount design and all-brass construction. It will utilise a bolt-down flange connection to permit proper positioning between the valve and the conditioner tank openings. It will have provision for either left-hand or right-hand raw water plumbing to simplify installation, while maintaining a forward-facing timer for easy servicing. The control will be a fully automatic multi-port control valve operated by a rotary pilot that hydraulically or pneumatically activates cartridge style diaphragm valves to accomplish regeneration. The multiport valve will incorporate self-adjusting flow regulators to control the rate of flow and to prevent resin loss during backwash, brine-rinse and brine tank refill positions, regardless of pressure fluctuations between 2 and 6.8 bar. The control will open and close slowly to prevent noise and hydraulic shock. It will have provisions for bypass of hard water during the regeneration cycle or elimination of the bypass, depending upon the requirements. The electrical control mechanism will be enclosed in a gasketed, moisture-resistant case. The enclosure will conform to NEMA 3 enclosure standards. The unit will have provisions for individual adjustment and backwash and rinse cycle, and provisions for individual adjustment of backwash and rinse cycle and provisions for manually regenerating by means of inlet hydraulic pressure even without the use of electric power. Regeneration will be controlled by a seven-day calendar clock that permits regeneration at any time of the day or night, any or every day of the week.
