2. Pengaturan dan Instalasi

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your water filtration system. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified plumber.

2.1 Pertimbangan Pra-Instalasi

• Pengujian Air: Ensure your water has been tested to confirm the presence and levels of iron, sulfur, and manganese. This system is designed for these specific contaminants.
• Lokasi: Install the system in a dry, level area, protected from freezing temperatures and direct sunlight. It should be placed after the pressure tank and before any other water treatment devices (e.g., water softener).
• Akses Drainase: A suitable drain (e.g., floor drain, utility sink) is required for the backwash cycle. The drain line connection is typically 1/2 inch.
• Stopkontak: A standard 120V electrical outlet is needed for the Fleck 5600SXT control valve.

2.2 Komponen yang Termasuk

• 10" x 54" FRP Tank (Black or Almond)
• Riser Tube (pre-installed)
• Fleck 5600SXT AIO Control Head
• 1 cubic ft Filter Media (Pre-filled for easy installation)
• 1" Bypass Valve (3/4" available upon request)

2.3 Langkah Instalasi

1. Bongkar dan Periksa: Carefully unpack all components and inspect for any shipping damage.
2. Media Loading (if applicable): If the media is not pre-filled, carefully pour the filter media into the tank. Ensure the riser tube remains centered during this process.
3. Install Control Head: Lubricate the O-rings on the control head with silicone grease. Carefully screw the control head onto the tank, ensuring the riser tube seats properly into the control head's distributor. Do not overtighten.
4. Sambungan Pipa: Connect the bypass valve to the control head. Plumb the main water line to the inlet side of the bypass valve and the treated water line to the outlet side. Connect a 1/2-inch drain line from the control head's drain port to an appropriate drain. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free.
5. Pemrograman Awal: Connect the power adapter to the control head and plug it into a 120V outlet. The Fleck 5600SXT controller will require initial programming for time of day and regeneration settings. It is critical to verify factory settings and adjust them according to your specific water conditions and system requirements. Some units may have a 'Brine Fill (BF)' setting enabled by default; ensure this is disabled for AIO systems to prevent issues during initial startup. Refer to the detailed Fleck 5600SXT manual for complete programming instructions.
6. System Start-up and Flushing: With the bypass valve in the bypass position, slowly open the main water supply. Once the system is pressurized, slowly move the bypass valve to the service position. Allow the system to fill with water. Initiate a manual backwash cycle to flush any fine media particles and trapped air from the system. Repeat flushing until water runs clear.

3. Prinsip Operasional

The AIS10-25SXT system operates on the principle of air injection oxidation, a chemical-free method for removing dissolved iron, sulfur, and manganese.

3.1 How the System Works

1. Air Pocket Creation: During the automatic backwash cycle, the Fleck 5600SXT control valve draws in a pocket of air, which is then held at the top of the filter tank.
2. Oksidasi: As untreated water enters the tank, it passes through this air pocket. The oxygen in the air oxidizes the dissolved iron, sulfur (hydrogen sulfide), and manganese, converting them into insoluble particulate forms.
3. Penyaringan: The oxidized particles are then trapped by the specialized filter media located below the air pocket.
4. Automatic Backwash: Periodically (typically every few days, based on programming), the system initiates an automatic backwash cycle. During this cycle, the flow of water is reversed, lifting the media bed and flushing the trapped oxidized contaminants down the drain. This process also replenishes the air pocket for the next filtration cycle.

3.2 Fleck 5600SXT Control Valve

The digital SXT controller manages the system's operation, including the time of day and the frequency of backwash cycles. The display shows the current time and the number of days remaining until the next regeneration. Consult the dedicated Fleck 5600SXT manual for detailed instructions on setting the time, regeneration frequency, and other advanced parameters.

4. Pemeliharaan

The AIS10-25SXT system is designed for low maintenance, primarily due to its automatic backwashing feature.

• Penggantian Media Filter: The filter media typically lasts 5 years on average. The lifespan can vary depending on water quality and usage. When the media's effectiveness diminishes (e.g., iron/sulfur returns), it should be replaced. Replacement involves removing the control head, siphoning out old media, and adding new media.
• Inspeksi Rutin: Periodically check for any leaks around the control head or plumbing connections. Ensure the drain line is clear and that water is flowing properly during the backwash cycle.
• Control Head Cleaning: Keep the exterior of the control head clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
• Power Otagadalah: Jika terjadi pemadaman listriktage, the Fleck 5600SXT controller retains its settings for a period. However, you may need to reset the current time after an extended outage.
