Multiport Valve Main Functions
- Filter - downward flow through the filter bed to the outlet
- Backwash - upward flow through the filter bed to waste
- Rinse - downward flow through the filter bed to waste
- Waste - bypass the filter bed to waste
- Re-circulate - bypass the filter bed to the outlet
- Closed - no flow to the filter
Cleansing a filter simply requires shifting the Multiport lever from the "filter" position to the "backwash" position, which reverses the flow of water in the filter, flushing the filter bed.
