2.5 CHARACTERISTICS OF FEED WATER
Feed water must be:
• Drinkable and clean (SDI 1)
• Temperature must be between 6° and 25°C
• Hardness must be below 900 ppm CaCO3 (90°f)

3) INSTALLATION
3.1 PACKAGING
• Before the installation, check that the equipment was not
damaged by the transport and does not show any anomaly.
If in doubt, ask your seller, whose information is written on
the back of this manual.
• To preserve hygienic safety, we recommend removing the
equipment from the package only at the moment of instal-
lation.
• Don't throw the package away for some time, being careful
to keep any dangerous or small parts of the package away
from children.
• Inside the salt container there are:
- The drain pipes (fig. 3, E, F)
- The transformer (fig. 10, B)
- The package with the joints (fig. 2)
- The by-pass joints (fig. 12, C, 1)
• Check that there are no parts of the package left in the salt
container.
3.2 CHOOSING THE PLACE OF INSTALLATION
• The equipment must be installed by keeping it horizontal.
• Ensure that there is no other water treatment machine pre-
sent upline of the place of installation.
• Ensure that feed water comes from a drinking water pi-
9 pe. We recommend checking the chemical and physical
para-meters of the drinking water as well as its hardness
285 before installation.
• Install the equipment near a floor sink that must be placed
downline of the equipment, to let the waste water coming
15 out of the overflow protection pipe flow with no impediments.
• Install the equipment in a dry place that can be easily
25 ac-cessible to maintain and clean the equipment. Do not
install the equipment in dirty and unhygienic places, or in
any place difficult to clean.
• Ensure that room temperature in the place of installation is
between 4°C and 35°C.
• Keep away from corrosive or acid products.
• If the water softener is located near a boiler, check that
the pipes and the water softener itself are not subjected
to overheating. If possible, install a pipe that keeps a few
meters' distance (at least 3) between the outlet of the water
softener and the inlet of the boiler.
• Do not install in places where electric safety norms or
per-sonal safety norms are openly disregarded.
• Hydric pressure must not be under 0.2 Mpa (2 bar) or over
0.8 Mpa (8 bar). (We recommend at least 3 or 4 bar)
• If hydric pressure is over 8 bar, it is necessary to install a
pressure adaptor.
• If hydric pressure is under 0.2 Mpa (2 bar), the equipment
may not be working correctly.
• Salt packages or boxes must not be kept in humid places
or in direct contact with the floor: keep it, for example, on a
wooden pallet.
3.3 CONNECTION TO THE WATER SYSTEM
The connection to the water system must be done according
to all applicable norms, following the instructions of the ma-
nu-facturer and qualified personnel.
During the installation use pipes, hoses, valves and com-
po-nents which comply with applicable norms on hygienic sa-
fety DM 174/2004. They must be kept in their sealed package
until the moment of installation to preserve their hygienic sa-
fety. It is forbidden to use components that are not suitable
for drinking water contact, or components which hygienic
safety was compromised, as they could corrupt the quality of
