Hydraulic Characteristics

Estimated bed expansion and pressure drop are shown in figures which require consulting the original PDF. The necessary flowrate for a desired bed expansion at other water temperatures can be calculated using provided equations. Pressure drop expectations are valid at the start of the service run with clean water and a well-classified bed.

Conditioning and Limits of Use

AmberLite™ PWA7 Ion Exchange Resin is suitable for potable water applications after an initial commissioning up-flow rinse of 20 bed volumes of water at ambient temperature at the service flowrate. The operating capacity depends on operating and feedwater conditions.
