instruction manual
water softener
1) DEAR CUSTOMER,
thank you for purchasing our ISI Series water softener.
Please set the water softener at work only after reading this
instruction manual. In case of trouble, please contact your
retailer for assistance. For future reference, keep this manual
together with the water softener.
2) HOW DOES AN ISI SERIES WATER SOFTENER WORK?
The ISI Series water softener, thanks to the ionic exchange
resins contained inside the bottle, traps the Magnesium and
Calcium salts dissolved in the water, removing water hardness
in excess and preventing the formation of limescale.
In order to guarantee a correct functioning of the resins, it
is important to add salt to the brine tank periodically (fig. 7).
3) THE PACKAGING CONTAINS:
• 1 ISI Series water softener with cationic resins adapt for
softening
• 1 instruction manual
• 4 metres of unloading pipe
• 1 overflow curved union joint
• 1 set of joints for water network connection

7) SECURITY WARNINGS
Please read carefully the following warnings before installing
the fixture:
1. Installation and maintenance must be carried out only by a
qualified personnel, well practised with this kind of fixture
and who thoroughly knows current safety regulations;
2. Before installation, make sure the fixture is not faulty or
damaged because of transport; failing this, please contact
your retailer;
3. The water softener only guarantees the softening of cold
drinkable water. Any other use is considered unreasonable;
4. Repair and maintenance must be carried out only with the
original spare parts;
5. Do not expose the fixture to rain and damp;
6. Do not touch or use the water softener with wet or damp
hands or feet, or barefoot;
7. Before connecting the fixture to the electric network, make
sure the available line voltage corresponds to the voltage
indicated by the tag on the fixture;
8. The electrical plants must be provided with a working ear-
thing arrangement to prevent any danger;
9. Make sure the maximum pressure of the water network
does not exceed 8 bar, otherwise please install a pressure
reducer..
Should you not follow the above-mentioned warnings,
the manufacturer is not responsible for any damage and/
or injury.
8) INSTALLATION
8.1 POSITIONING
Choose the place where to position the fixture considering
that:
1. the temperature of the place must range between 4°C and
30°C;
2. the water softener must be easily reachable, since salt
must be loaded periodically in the brine tank (fig. 7);
3. the distance between the water softener and the unloading
system must be as short as possible.
4. the water softener must be put on a horizontal surface;
5. the flexible connection pipes must not be flattened or have
too narrow elbows, so that water can flow out without run-
ning into obstacles;
6. if the water softener is close to a boiler, make sure pipes
and the water softener itself don't overheat; if possible,
keep at least a 3-metre piping between the outlet of the
water softener and the boiler inlet.
7. do not install the water softener near acid or corrosive
substances or fumes.
8.2 ELECTRIC NETWORK CONNECTION
Before plugging the fixture into the supply network, make
sure the plug is compatible with the socket. This fixture was
built in accordance with the essential safety requirements set
by the following European regulations: Low Voltage Directive
2006/95/CEE (electrical safety), Electromagnetic compatibility
2004/108/CEE (electrical safety). Installation must be carried
out in accordance with the law on electrical plants (CEI 64.8).
8.3 WATER NETWORK CONNECTION
Make sure the pressure of the water network ranges between
2 bar and 8 bar; if pressure is higher than 8 bar, the installa-
tion of a pressure reducer is required. If it is lower than 2 bar,
the water softener will not function properly.
