1. Brine Valve PN 3020511 Thank you for choosing the GE Safety Brine Valve For a complete water conditioner system a brine valve is indispensable for system protection and regeneration as well as ensuring the best water conditions The innovative design of the Brine Valve provides safe and reliable performance and is suitable for household and commercial conditioner systems This manual will help you better understand the structure and properties of the valve and will guide you through the installation We urge you to read this manual carefully and refer to it any time a malfunction occurs The Troubleshooting Table highlights minor problems that you can correct yourself Overview The brine valve is suitable for household use For a water conditioner system the brine valve has two principal functions Air Check function During system regeneration or a slow rinse period the brine valve prevents air from being pulled into the resin tank thereby ensuring the system s performance Refill Protection over refill may occur if the control valve was set incorrectly or a system failure occurs If this happens the brine valve is a protective device against overfilling the brine tank Product Features e Positive automatic opening and closing of the valve by using vacuum or pressure Installation Manual e Unique mechanical structure developed according to scientific principles providing the best reliability e Highly2. expandable interface with replacement fittings to coordinate different uses of the control valve e Adjustments are designed for ease of use and fast set Up e Flow control is regulated by the body Brine valve is Suitable for most water conditioning systems Specifications Dimensions 32 high unit 3 2 Lx 2 8 W x 27 358 H 80 mm x 71 mm x 695 mm 20 120 psi 0 14 0 83 MPa 34 140 F 1 60 C Clean municipal water or brine 1 2 GPM 4 5 L m 1 0 GPM 3 7 L m Rated Pressure Temperature Range Used Media Max Refill Water FLow Max Brine Flow Materials Main Valve ABS amp PE Seal Chlorine Chloramines resistant silicone rubber Regenerant Tube Connection The brine valve is compatible with a 3 5 90 mm GE brine well see Figure 1 The regenerant tube links the control valve and the brine valve Place one end of the right angle elbow through the hole of the brine well Slide the nut retaining sleeve and plastic gripper over the regenerant tube Insert the inner tube support and connect the regenerant tube to the elbow Finally connect the other end of the regenerant tube to the control valve 3 8 Nut 3 8 Plastic Gripper 3 8 Retainer Sleeve 3 8 Plastic Insert Connect to Control Valve m Ba a 2 g p Regenerate Tube Figure 1 Brine Valve PN 3020511 Brine Well Installation 1 The brine well should be vertically installed in the regenerant tank 2 All con
