Instructional Videos from Pentair Water University: Fleck 5600 & 2510 Valves

 

Fleck 5600

 

Fleck 5600 Control Valve Tear Down: https://youtu.be/BeD7IdE0FB8

Uses:

  • Troubleshooting parts on the 5600 mechanical and SXT valves.
  • Determining what color and size replacement parts you need for your specific valve type.
  • Determining where replacement parts go.
  • This video covers replacement of seals and spacers and piston, plus the examination and/or replacement of the brine valve (softeners only), the injector assembly (softeners only), and drain line flow control. The instructional video is done with a mechanical meter softener valve (Econominder) but can be generalized to any 5600 control.

 

Special Notes: Seals and spacer replacement using the stuffer tool begins at 7:00 minutes. The job is often done without the use of the stuffer tool.

 

Fleck 5600 Air in Brine System: https://youtu.be/c923S1j-Zbc

Use to check for air entering a brine system and check for damaged fittings or hose:

  • When there is low to no salt usage by softener,
  • The service water is “hard”,
  • There are visible leaks, or
  • Experiencing water hammering, or hydraulic shock, during regeneration
  •  This video covers the connections and tubing in the brine draw system from the valve body to the air check in the brine tank. A Fleck 5810 is used in the demo, but all other Fleck controls work exactly the same.

 

Fleck 5600 Brine Valve Repair and Replacement: https://youtu.be/MiJktBgvi38

Use when:

  • There is salty service water,
  • The brine tank is overfilling, or
  • There is excessive salt use
  • This video covers inspection and/or replacement of the brine valve. The 5600 mechanical meter softener valve (Econominder) is used in the demo, but it can be generalized to other Fleck controls.

 

Fleck 5600 Injector Repairs: https://youtu.be/Rq3JR0FNkwE

Clean or replace a clogged injector or screen when:

  • The brine tank is overfilling,
  • No soft water to home, or
  • There is salty service water

 

Fleck 5600 Drain Hose: https://youtu.be/M2vt85Bb6Yk

Diagnose and clear an obstructed drain hose when:

  • The pressure drops in the home,
  • There is salty service water, or
  • There is slow to no drain flow during service regeneration

 

Fleck 5600 Meter Repairs: https://youtu.be/NWjjC__66xc

Meter not registering flow when there is:

  • No regeneration
  • No salt use
  • No capacity decline on the control, or
  • No flow indicator on the display

 

Depressurize Fleck 5600 Valve: https://youtu.be/iYHXHVD5ik8

Depressurize a system before completing any service work.

 

Set Time on Fleck 5600 Controller: https://youtu.be/NTp-Qm4j9y0

Use when the:

  • Regeneration cycle occurs at the wrong time
  • Display shows the wrong time

Uses:

  • Troubleshooting parts on the 5600 mechanical and SXT valves
