RUNXIN F64A1
RUNXIN F64A1
The Runxin F64A1 is a manual, top-mount multiport control valve designed specifically for water softening and industrial filtration systems.
It uses a handwheel to switch between regeneration cycles and requires no electricity to operate, making it a simple, robust replacement for automatic systems.
Specification
- Valve Type: Manual Softener Valve
- Flow Capacity: 4.5 m³/h
- Mount Type: Top Mount
- Regeneration Type: Down-flow
- Inlet/Outlet Size: 1" Female Thread
- Drain: 1/2" Male Thread
- Brine Line: 3/8" Male Thread
- Water Turbidity: <5 FTU
- Working Pressure: 0.15 - 0.6 MPa (1.5 - 6 bar)
- Water Temperature: 5°C - 50°C (41°F - 122°F)
- Mounting Base: 2.5"-8NPSM
- Riser Pipe: 1.05" Outside Diameter
- Filter Tank: 6" - 18"
Primary Applications
This valve is best suited for situations where automation is not required or desired. Typical uses include:
- Residential Water Softeners (specifically for manual regeneration).
- Boiler Feed Water pretreatment systems.
- Reverse Osmosis (RO) Pretreatment.
- Remote installations where access to electricity is limited.
- Iron reduction filters, when paired with appropriate media.
- Portable Water Treatment setups.
Operation Cycles
The F64A1 features a 5-stage manual control system. By rotating the handwheel, you cycle through the following modes:
- Service: Normal water softening/filtration mode.
- Backwash: Reverses flow to loosen the resin bed and remove accumulated debris.
- Brine & Slow Rinse: Draws salt brine into the tank to regenerate the resin.
- Brine Refill: Directs water into the salt tank to prepare brine for the next cycle.
- Fast Rinse: Flushes out any remaining brine and settles the resin bed before returning to service.
Key Features
- Hermetic Head Faces: The valve uses high-degree ceramic and corrosion-resistant moving plates. This provides a reliable seal and prevents leaking even under high pressure.
- Manual Operation: Designed for areas without stable electricity or where full automation isn't required. It uses a sturdy metal handle (unlike the F64A2, which typically features a plastic handle).
- No Raw Water Bypass: During the regeneration process, the valve blocks the outlet so that untreated hard water does not enter your plumbing system.
- Flexible Installation: While primarily a top-mount valve, it can be adapted for side-mounting using a specific side-mount connector.
