Triton Water Softener – Floteck 85 Valve, Compact Design, 9 and 18 L

Introducing the Triton Water Softener

The Triton water softener has been designed to provide effective limescale removal while durably protecting your installations. Paired with the Floteck 85 valve, it benefits from intelligent volumetric operation, automatically adjusting regeneration cycles to your actual consumption.

Compact, modern and elegant, the Triton integrates easily into any interior. Its removable cap makes salt refilling and level checking easy, while its ergonomic handles ensure simple and practical handling. With its downflow regeneration, it guarantees reliable and consistent performance with excellent value for money.

Available in 2 capacities (9 L and 18 L) and in two colours (white/blue and grey/red), the Triton suits all installation styles.

Triton advantages

The Floteck 85 valve

The Floteck 85 is an electronic volumetric valve made of NORYL, designed to optimise the softener's operation by adapting to actual consumption. It provides automatic, precise and reliable management of regeneration cycles while effectively reducing water and salt consumption.

Thanks to its advanced technology and upflow regeneration (Up Flow), the valve regenerates only the used resin, saving up to 30% on salt.

Design and construction

The Triton combines elegance and functionality. Its compact monoblock design measures only 225 mm deep, allowing installation in the tightest spaces.

• Removable cap – easy salt refilling and level checking
• Ergonomic handles – practical handling
• Compact design – only 440 × 225 mm footprint
• Two colours – white/blue or grey/red to match your interior
• Dual safety – integrated bypass and mixing valve included as standard

Sizing

The choice between the Triton 9L and Triton 18L depends on water hardness, the number of occupants and the consumption profile. The Triton 9L (compact format, 640 mm tall) suits small households, while the Triton 18L (1,110 mm) is suited for standard residential installations.

Installation

1. Position the water softener near the main water inlet, on a flat and stable surface, protected from frost
2. Connect the water inlet and outlet via the integrated bypass, using mandatory flexible hoses
3. Connect the drain hose to a regulation siphon (mandatory)
4. Connect the power supply (transformer provided – 12V AC output)
5. Fill the salt tank with tablet salt
6. Programme the unit: operating mode, resin capacity and cycle times
7. Run an initial regeneration cycle
8. Adjust the mixing valve to the desired residual hardness

Routine maintenance

• Salt level – check regularly and top up with tablet salt (automatic alert on the Triton)
• Salt tank cleaning – once a year to remove deposits
• Resin cleaner – an annual treatment extends the exchange capacity
• Hardness check – test residual hardness regularly with a TH test kit
• Smart Clean – the built-in technology ensures automatic rinsing after absence, limiting bacterial growth
