Introduction Operation

Step 1.

Service Cycle

In the service cycle, raw water enters the inlet port of the media tank. The oxidation process begins.

This air/water contact oxidizes the iron and hydrogen sulﬁde in the water. 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 media tank. The air

pump runs for a preset period of time recharging the head of air in the media 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 media 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 media 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 Sulfur-Cleer™ system introduces air into the media tank and bleeds off the old head of air

automatically. The exchange of the air into the media 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 media tank and the air eliminator

solenoid exhausts the old air.

Iron and Trace Hydrogen Sulfide

When applying the ﬁlter on water sources with only iron present or with levels of hydrogen sulﬁde less

than 1 ppm, only backwashing will be needed to regenerate the ﬁlter. In some applications, odors

may develop over time and the media bed may need to be sanitized. In general, bleach will not be

required more than once per month and users generally ﬁnd that it is needed no more than once every

four to six months, if at all.

Hydrogen Sulfide - Over 1 PPM

When applying the ﬁlter on water sources with hydrogen sulﬁde levels of 1 - 5 ppm, backwashing

every three days and eduction of diluted non-scented bleach on occasion may be needed.

Regeneration with bleach is only necessary when hydrogen sulﬁde is present in the product water.

Although the air compressor provides much of the action needed to reduce hydrogen sulﬁde, the

bleach will “super oxygenate” the Culligan CIM media to enhance effectiveness. Overdosing with

bleach will cause a faster breakdown of the media. Therefore, any chlorine dosing scheme involves a

compromise between media life and hydrogen sulﬁde reduction.

Introduction

(cont.)

The concentration limits listed below reﬂect the minimum or 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.

General Instructions — Observe all state and plumbing codes, electrical codes and drain

restrictions. The system and installation must comply with all state and local laws and regulations. Most

codes require an anti-syphon device or airgap.

For installations in Massachusetts, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing

Code 248 CMR shall be adhered to. Consult with your licensed plumber for

installation of this system. The use of saddle valves is not permitted.

Alkalinity — A minimum alkalinity of 100 ppm is required for efﬁcient removal of iron and hydrogen

sulﬁde.

Hydrogen Sulﬁde — Often referred to as rotten egg odor, hydrogen sulﬁde will be reduced

signiﬁcantly on water supplies containing less than 5 ppm as tested by Culligan. Consult the factory if

hydrogen sulﬁde concentrations are greater than 5 ppm.

Iron — This system is rated for a maximum of 10 ppm of ferrous (clear water) iron. Consult the

factory if iron bacteria is present.

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 Sulfur-Cleer™ is not designed to

remove organic bound iron.

pH — The pH level of the inﬂuent water must be 7.0 - 8.5.

Familiarization

Power Loss

The 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 Sulfur-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 5 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 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.

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.
