• Functional Group: Dimethylethanolammonium
• Form Shipped: Cl⁻
• Manufacturer: DuPont

Description

AmberLite™ IRA410 Cl Ion Exchange Resin is a general-purpose demineralization resin suitable for industrial water treatment systems operating in a co-flow regenerated manner. It is a Type II strong base anion resin, offering greater operating capacity compared to Type I resins due to more complete regeneration. This resin is best suited for water where silica and carbon dioxide do not exceed 30% of the total anions, and where service and caustic regeneration temperatures do not consistently exceed 35°C (95°F). For applications requiring low silica effluent or higher operating temperatures, a Type I resin like AmberLite™ IRA402 Cl is recommended.

Applications

• Demineralization
• Dealkalization

System Designs

• Co-current regeneration

Hydraulic Characteristics

Estimated bed expansion and pressure drop are available as functions of backwash flowrate and temperature, and service flowrate and temperature, respectively, in the official PDF documentation (Figures 1 and 2). These pressure drop expectations are valid at the start of a service run with clean water and a well-classified bed.

• Backwash Expansion (Figure 1): Temperature 10 – 60°C (50 – 140°F)
• Pressure Drop (Figure 2): Temperature 10 – 60°C (50 – 140°F)
