Part Description:
The Magnet Disk is a small but vital component installed on the cam gear of WaterBoss, AquaMaster, and AquaMaster PRO water softeners. It works with the internal sensor to track cam rotation and position, allowing the control board to monitor and control the softener’s regeneration cycle.
Function & Importance:
The magnet rotates with the cam and signals the control board when the system reaches specific positions in the cycle
Helps the softener start, stop, and complete regeneration steps at the right time
The magnet triggers the sensor as it passes, allowing the system to "know" where it is in the cycle
Without it, the softener cannot complete its service or regeneration steps correctly
Common Signs of Issues:
System stuck in a cycle
Control panel displays error or doesn't advance
Incomplete regeneration or hard water
Compatible Models:
WaterBoss 700, 900, and 950
AquaMaster 700, 900, and 950
AquaMaster PRO 5000, 5100, and 5500
Installation Tips:
The disk must be securely attached to the designated spot on the cam gear
Ensure the magnetic surface aligns with the internal reed switch
The magnet can chip or crack—handle with care
Make sure the controller is attached as it needs to “talk” with it
Why It Matters:
Though small, the Magnet Disk is essential to the softener’s timing and operation. If it isn’t working, the system can’t accurately track or complete its regeneration cycles—leading to hard water, wasted salt, or system errors. A properly installed magnet ensures your softener runs smoothly and efficiently, protecting your appliances and water quality.
