Fleck Residential Electronic Valve Controls
Fleck residential valves have a variety of options for controls. The various models of controllers are electro-mechanical, LXT, SXT, XT, and XTR. The controller can allow for diagnostics such as flow rate, peak flow rate, totalizer, hours between last two regenerations, hours since last regeneration, adjustable volume remaining, and valve position.
The other control type is electro-mechanical. Electro-mechanical controllers can be either time clock or metered. Some of the electro-mechanical residential controllers have pins in the back of a wheel that can be adjusted to control regeneration cycles in two minute intervals. The electro-mechanical controller is not as versatile as the electronic controllers but has been a very reliable controller.
