Brine Tanks
Required with a standard system is a brine make-up tank. These tanks will accommodate loading of
softener grade salt and provide water to dissolve brine into a saturated liquid form.
Softened water is delivered to the brine tank by the control valve during the normal regeneration
sequence.
Brine tanks include an overflow connection to allow for a safety in case of tank overflow.
Central Brine System
For larger, multiple systems, a Central Brining System alternative is
available. This will replace the need for multiple brine tanks when installing
multiple units in parallel.
The Central Brining System has features similar to the independent brine
tanks; however, to accommodate multiple systems, the brine refill is
accomplished by a float mechanism attached to the softened water supply
outlet of the system.
A check valve must be added to each softener on the brine line for the unit
to operate properly with the Central Brining System.

Valve Modifications for Central Brining Operation
Depending on the CP unit selected, the Venturi Throat may need to be changed. This will regulate the amount of salt
used per regeneration.
