Fleck 5600

Summary

Product Identification

• Model: 5600
• Type: Mechanical Control Valve
• Part No.: 40730 Rev C

Features

• Simple mechanical design for ease of use.
• Two valve body designs:
  • Downflow regeneration
  • Upflow regeneration
• Injector/drain modules (brine valve, flow controls, injector) removable from the exterior.
• Rugged timer with heavy-duty 3/8" wide plastic gears.
• User-friendly operation.
• Non-corrosive, UV-resistant, fiber-reinforced polymer valve body.
• Economical with small annual power consumption, using a single motor to keep time and activate mechanics.
• Designed with double backwash.

Options

• Bypass valve (Fiber-reinforced polymer or stainless steel)
• Low water use piston (as little as 29 gal./regeneration)
