Hello,
I finally installed my Fleck 5800SXT 45K yesterday, but some settings still elude me.
What I have:
5800SXT, Pentair valve 580006-002, turbine meter upflow
Injector 2, draw 0.5GPM per table (seems bigger than most, can this be correct?)
Drain flow 2.4 GPM
Capacity 45000 grain, 2 people in the house, water softener only on hot water, total water use per month is 12.5m3 or 3300 gallons (cold and hot, mostly hot water)
My settings:
DF = GAL
VT = 5800
RfF= UFbd (is this best, or is fill first best?)
CT = Fd
C = 45 x1000
H = 8 (95mg/L, converts to 7, added one for the ery slight iron content)
Rs = rc
RC = 150
DO = Off (can I get away with this? I really only want to regenerate when needed)
BD = 60
BW = 10
RR = 8
BF = 12 (I calculated I needed 4.5 gallons, so 9 minutes at 0.5GPM. Is 12 excessive or "safer"?)
FM = t0.7
Re = off
VR = off
