AUTOTROL Bi-bloc bi-bloc water softener 18 L, 368/606 volumétrique valve

AUTOTROL Bi-bloc bi-bloc water softener 18 L, 368/606 volumétrique valve, effectively treats hard water throughout the home. The bi-bloc solution is ideal when space is limited: the Structural tank and the salt tank are separate and can be installed independently, even in two different locations. Modular according to water consumption, the bi-bloc offers very easy maintenance and great installation flexibility.

Why soften your water?

Hard water, rich in calcium and magnesium ions, causes scaling of pipes and appliances, white marks, rough laundry, irritated skin and higher energy and detergent consumption. By exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, the softener removes limescale at the source. Softened water remains perfectly drinkable, without a salty taste, and protects the entire installation over the long term.

How it works

This softener uses 18 litres of ion-exchange resin in a 08X35 tank. Driven by the AUTOTROL 368/606 volumétrique, it regenerates the resin with salt based on the volume of water actually consumed, for optimal efficiency and controlled consumption. Blending (mixing) allows the residual hardness to be finely adjusted.

Het AUTOTROL 368/606 ventiel is een compact automatisch besturingsventiel voor residentiële ontharders en filters. Eenvoudig te programmeren, robuust en duurzaam, stuurt het de regeneratiecycli volumetrisch aan, op basis van het werkelijk verbruikte watervolume, wat het zout- en waterverbruik aanzienlijk vermindert.

Installation and maintenance

Installation is carried out on the main water supply, ideally with a connection kit (hoses, by-pass valve, compliant drain). Maintenance is minimal: keep the regeneration salt topped up and have an annual service performed by a professional for years of reliable operation. DIMM supports professionals in selection, commissioning and follow-up.

Distributed by DIMM, a water-treatment specialist for professionals in Belgium and France, this softener benefits from expert technical advice, available spare parts and support throughout the life of the installation.
