286/740 Autotrol 268 Valve with LOGIX 740 Control - Time-Tested Efficiency for Water Softeners
The 286/740 Autotrol 268 Valve with LOGIX 740 Control delivers unmatched reliability and ease-of-use for residential and light commercial water softeners. With a frictionless sealing system, high-performance fiber-reinforced body, and user-friendly LOGIX 740 electronic timer, this system is ideal for those looking to upgrade their water softening system with durable and efficient technology.
Advanced Durability and Precision Engineering
This Autotrol valve system is built to perform. Featuring the time-tested Duraflow flapper design, it offers frictionless sealing that improves reliability and extends service life. The fiber-reinforced polymer valve body resists corrosion, UV exposure, and chemicals, making it perfect for a wide range of environmental conditions.
Key Construction Features:
-
Duraflow Flapper Technology: Ensures leak-free, frictionless sealing
-
Non-Corrosive Valve Body: Made from high-strength, UV-resistant polymer
-
Environmental Protective Cover: Safeguards the valve from water and corrosion
High Performance with Double Backwash and Optical Precision
The 286/740 valve’s double backwash design ensures reduced hardness leakage and better resin bed regeneration. An optical sensor enables ultra-precise cycle positioning, making this valve a superior performer among calendar-clock-based softener controllers.
Performance Highlights:
-
Flow Rate: Continuous service flow up to 25 GPM
-
Backwash Flow: Up to 20 GPM, supports tanks up to 16" (softener) and 18" (filter)
-
Fully Adjustable: Supports 5- or 8-cycle programming
-
Soft Water Refill: Keeps the brine tank cleaner over time
User-Friendly LOGIX 740 Time Clock Controller
The LOGIX 740 Control provides simple, calendar-day programming for scheduled regenerations. Ideal for users who prefer fixed intervals, this controller also includes a super capacitor to retain the time of day during power outages and non-volatile memory to preserve programming.
Control System Benefits:
-
Calendar Clock Regeneration: Easy programming based on days
-
Power-Loss Protection: Maintains settings and time
-
System History Tracking: View data for system performance
-
Wall Mount Kit Optional: Flexible installation options
