DISTRIBUTOR
Unfiltered water enters the vane inlet port. Internal valve porting routes the water down and out
the top distributor, into the resin tank. Unfiltered water is filtered as it passes through the resin bed,
then enters the bottom distributor. Filtered water flows back into the valve and out the valve outlet,
to the house water pipes.

To begin a regeneration, the electronic timer energizes the circuit to the valve motor. The valve
motor rotates the rotor and disc and the valve cam until the position switch lever drops to open
the motor circuit, when the valve reaches FILL position. As the rotor and disc rotates, the port
opens for filtered water to fill through the venturi. Fill flow continues to the brine valve, and into
the salt storage tank. Filtered water is still available to the house lines.
