- ✓ Hydraulically Balanced Pistons: Time-tested design independently pilots service flow and regeneration for reliable, efficient operation in commercial environments
FAQ
Q: What is the advantage of a triplex parallel configuration over single or duplex systems?
A: The triplex parallel design ensures uninterrupted soft water delivery by allowing two tanks to remain in service while one regenerates, making it ideal for 24/7 operations requiring continuous high-flow soft water without service interruptions.
Q: How often will the brine tank need to be refilled with salt?
A: The CES-2900E-150-TP features a 1,200 lb capacity brine tank that significantly extends the time between salt refills. Frequency depends on water hardness and usage volume, but the meter-initiated regeneration system optimizes salt consumption by regenerating only when necessary based on actual water usage.
Q: What electrical requirements does this system have?
A: The system requires a standard 115 VAC/60 Hz/1 Phase non-shock electrical connection to power the NXT2 programmable controllers and meter-initiated regeneration system.
