K-MATIC time control for backwash filter Hydra

K-MATIC timer for backwash filter Hydra - automatic flushing

This K-Matic kit for backwash filters allows for automatic, time-controlled backwashing. Regular backwashing improves water quality and also protects the filter cartridge. This extends the lifespan of the filter cartridge. Individual automatic backwash programs can be set. These control the backwash intervals and the duration of the backwash.

Function of K-Matic

The K-Matic is simple and compact and connects to the filter cup drain with the included brass swivel. The K-Matic valve features an intuitive, easy-to-program, and easy-to-read settings menu. It requires no power connection. A 9V battery is sufficient for the valve to operate and perform the backwash cycles.

The safety stop function allows the valve to be closed in case of a low battery, and the manual flush function can help when excessive dirt requires additional cleaning.

Setting the time interval

The self-cleaning interval should be adjusted according to the quality of the source water, the type of contamination, and your needs. Water with high levels of contamination requires more frequent and longer cleaning; conversely, less contaminated water requires less frequent and shorter cleaning.

• In automatic mode, the intervals between two valve openings and the duration of each individual opening can be programmed using the following options:
  • Interval - 12h, 24h, 7, 15, 30 days
  • Duration for - 10”, 20”
• Each time the valve is opened, a second opening occurs with a fixed duration of 3 seconds, which increases the effectiveness of the flush.
