The unit keeps overflowing during regeneration

1 comments:

The Clack WS1 series unit may be overflowing during regeneration due to one or more of the following reasons:

1. Incorrect Drain Flow – The total flow to drain is about six times the resin volume, and if the drain line is restricted or improperly sized, it may cause overflow.
2. Blocked or Faulty Valve – A malfunctioning or clogged valve could prevent proper flow control during regeneration.
3. Improper Programming – If the regeneration cycle settings are incorrect, excessive water may be used.
4. Bypass or MAV/NHWBV Issue – If the Motorized Alternating Valve (MAV) or No Hard Water Bypass Valve (NHWBV) is not functioning correctly, it may allow water to flow improperly.
5. High Inlet Pressure – The inlet pressure affects flow rates, and excessive pressure may cause overflow.

Checking these factors and ensuring proper installation, programming, and maintenance should help resolve the issue.
