How It Works
This electric meter valve operates as the control point within your water softener system, measuring the volume of water passing through to regulate regeneration cycles. By electronically tracking water usage, it signals the control valve to initiate softening only when necessary, preventing unnecessary regeneration and conserving resources.
Installed as part of the Fleck 5600 control valve assembly, the FL56/16M-SXT-0.0 uses digital flow measurement technology to communicate with the system’s control head, enabling precise valve actuation without the need for mechanical meters, thereby reducing wear and enhancing operational accuracy.
What to Expect
Once installed, you’ll notice your water softener system operates more efficiently, with regeneration cycles occurring based on actual water usage rather than fixed schedules. In the first few days, the system will calibrate flow readings and adjust cycles accordingly, optimizing salt and water consumption.
Over time, this valve’s robust construction ensures long-term reliability, minimizing the need for frequent maintenance. Proper installation and routine checks will keep your water treatment setup functioning smoothly, maintaining consistent soft water quality for your home or business.
