RESIN H-C100E

Applications

• Potable Water Softening: Specifically certified for residential and commercial hard water reduction (removing calcium Ca²⁺ and magnesium Mg²⁺).
• Food & Beverage Processing: Extensively cleaned during manufacturing to meet extreme purity guidelines for ingredients and processing water.
• Industrial Softening: Used as a reliable, high-capacity precursor filtration matrix before industrial applications, boiler feeds, or reverse osmosis (RO) units to mitigate scaling.

Expected Softening Capacities by Salt Dosage

A standard 1.0 cubic foot bag of C100E yields predictable grain capacities based on the regeneration salt setting:

• High Efficiency: ~ 22,000 grains capacity when using 6 lbs of salt/cu.ft.
• Standard Setting: ~ 27,000  grains capacity when using 9 lbs of salt/cu.ft.
• Maximum Capacity: ~ 33,000 grains capacity when using 15 lbs of salt/cu.ft.

Standard Regeneration Parameters

• Regenerant Used: Sodium Chloride (NaCl - Brine solution) or Potassium Chloride (KCl).
• Co-flow Backwash Flow Rate: 5 - 6 GPM/ft² to ensure optimal bed expansion (50% freeboard space recommended in the vessel).
• Service Flow Rate: Ideal kinetics occur between 5 - 7.5 GPM/ft³ (or 8 - 40 Bed Volumes per Hour).
