10-ION Aqualine De-Ionising Cartridge
Deionizing water filters are used to remove mineral ions from the water such as calcium, iron, copper. Water that contains an appreciable quantity of these dissolved minerals is referred to as hard water. A deionizing water filter contains a deionization resin of complex sodium salts. When the water flows over the resin surface, dissolving the sodium the hard water minerals precipitate onto the resin surface. The resins prefer the minerals over the sodium and readily take up the minerals and release the sodium.
The 10-ION is a non regenerable industrial and general purpose deionisation polishing cartridge designed to provide extremely low TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) water (low conductivity) for analytical and general laboratory use and may be also used in autoclaves. The high quality semiconductor grade ion exchange resins will deliver high purity water with a minimum TOC background. The 10-ION is constructed totally from FDA grade materials and media. It is primarily designed as a polisher for low TDS feed water. It can be used in a recirculating mode or as a post RO scavenger. Down flow operation is preferred. Intermittent up-flow may cause bed separation and quality failure. Specifications:
