FEEDER-400-16 UNION O-RING: Ensure Leak-Free Water Softener Performance with Durable Sealing

When it comes to maintaining your water softener system's efficiency, a reliable sealing component is essential. The FEEDER-400-16 Union O-Ring is designed specifically for the Model 400 Feeder #16, providing a secure, watertight seal that prevents leaks and system downtime. Engineered for use in automated pure water systems, this O-ring offers long-lasting durability and peace of mind for your water treatment setup.

Key Benefits

  • Prevents leaks and water damage by ensuring a tight seal between feeder components
  • Resists wear and tear for extended service life, reducing the need for frequent replacements
  • Compatible with Model 400 Feeder #16 for seamless integration in your water softener system
  • Maintains system pressure and performance by eliminating gaps and seal failures
  • Easy to install, helping you quickly restore your water treatment system functionality
  • Supports automated pure water processes by maintaining contamination-free connections

How It Works

The FEEDER-400-16 Union O-Ring functions as a flexible sealing gasket that fits snugly within the junction of the Model 400 Feeder #16 union connection. When the feeder components are joined, the O-ring compresses slightly, creating a watertight barrier that prevents fluid from escaping the system. This is especially important in automated pure water setups where maintaining a clean, leak-free environment is critical.

By providing a reliable seal, the O-ring helps maintain consistent system pressure and protects internal components from exposure to air or contaminants, ensuring optimal performance of your water softener or feeder system.

What to Expect

After installing the FEEDER-400-16 Union O-Ring, you will immediately notice a secure and stable connection with no drips or leaks around the union. In the first few days and weeks, your system should maintain steady pressure and smooth operation without any interruptions caused by seal failures.

Over time, this O-ring will continue to provide dependable sealing performance with minimal maintenance. Periodic checks during routine system inspections will help confirm the O-ring’s integrity and ensure your water softener feeder continues to operate at peak efficiency.
