In the absence of a safety overflow and in the event of a malfunction, the BRINE 
TANK OVERFLOW will direct “overflow” to the drain instead of spilling on the floor 
where it could cause considerable damage. This fitting should be on the side of 
the cabinet or brine tank.

To connect overflow, locate hole on side of brine tank. Insert overflow fitting (not 
supplied) into tank and tighten with plastic thumb nut and gasket as shown 
(Figure 7). Attach length of 1/2-inch (1.3-cm) I.D. tubing (not supplied) to fitting 
and run to drain. Do not elevate overflow line higher than 3 inches (7.6 cm) below 
bottom of overflow fitting. Do not tie into drain line of control unit. Overflow line 
must be a direct, separate line from overflow fitting to drain, sewer or tub. Allow an 
air gap as per drain line instructions (Figure 6).

Figure 7

Use only the included transformer for powering the 400 series timers. Connect the 
plug of the transformer secondary cable to the mating socket on the control (see 
Figure 8).

Be certain that the transformer is plugged into a correct voltage source that is not 
controlled by a wall switch.
