What it does for your water
The LSGDMSTOR Fleck 5600SXT Timer Control Valve is a timer control valve.
On a timer, regeneration follows the clock you set; it's the simpler head, and it suits steady water use best.
Set the clock and the regeneration hour after installing; a power cut can reset older timers.
A replacement head must match the tank's thread (most residential tanks use 2.5-inch 8-thread), the distributor tube diameter and the injector size for the tank diameter. Parts that name it are in the valve parts lookup.
The listing also gives model 5600SXT.
The listing gives dimensions of 7.87 x 7.87 x 9.45 inches, a shipping weight of 5.07 lb and 1* digital control valve for water softeners 1* power cord 1* water distributor in the box.
