FAQ
Q: What applications is the CES-2850E-60 suitable for?
A: This system is ideal for cold water fed warewashing, laundry operations, boiler scale control, water heater protection, reverse osmosis pretreatment, tea brewing, and general commercial foodservice applications requiring hardness removal.
Q: How often does the system need salt refills?
A: With a 425 lbs salt storage capacity and meter-initiated regeneration using 18 lbs of salt per cycle, the frequency depends on your water usage. The large capacity brine tank is designed to maximize time between refills for reduced maintenance.
Q: What electrical and plumbing connections are required?
A: The CES-2850E-60 requires 115 VAC/60 Hz/1 Phase electrical connection and features 1.5" FNPT inlet and outlet connections. Operating water pressure must be maintained between 25-125 psi, with a pressure regulator required if daytime pressure exceeds 80 psi.
