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.

Introduction

(cont.)

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.

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 6.5 - 8.5. A pH level of 7.0 - 8.5 is optimal for iron

reduction and a pH level of 6.5 - 7.5 is optimal for hydrogen sulfide 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.

Operating

Conditions

Familiarization

Power Loss

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 three seconds. The

“REG” will light and blink. An immediate regeneration will also occur if a power outage has lasted

for more than three 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.

Modes of Operation

Manual Regeneration

Pressing and holding the regen button for 3 seconds will initiate an immediate regeneration. The

beeper is to give one beep at the start of manual regeneration (when the motor starts to turn). In

delay mode, pressing and releasing the regen button will light the regen icon for regeneration to

occur at the set delay time. Pressing and releasing the regen button again will turn off the regen

icon.

Power Loss

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 one day, in the event of a power outage.

The EEPROM ensures that the individual programming parameters of your softener 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.
