Afterfill,timeriswilchaction allows dam motor to turn dam rotor and disc into
BRINING position. Water flow is directed to the nozzle. Suction, crealed by the
nozzle and vemuri, draws brine from the salt slorage tank and injects it into the resin
bed via the bottom distributor. Flow continues out the top distribulor and to llle
drain. Hard water is available at the valve outlet.
When the brine valve closes to end brine dra_ _, water flow continues in the same
directions to slowl 3 RINSE brine from the resin bed and to the drain.
