Pressure Vessels & Media

Constructed from food grade high density polyethylene and reinforced with fibreglass for added strength, temperature and pressure ratings, the vessels set a new standard delivering great performance and value for money. Exceeding industry norms the vessels are tested to four times their maximum operating pressure (42 bar) as well as cycle tested 250,000 times.

The more positively charged calcium ions and magnesium ions are attracted to the fixed negatively charged sulphonated ions in the resin bead. Each hardness ion (magnesium or calcium) is exchanged for two sodium ions which are released from the bead. The calcium and magnesium ions are favoured over the sodium ions as they are more positively charged.

Mixed bed resin is a mixture of cation and anion beads and will remove both positive and negatively charged ions in exchange for water forming molecules. Ion exchange occurs where specific ions are being targeted for removal and are swapped for more desirable ions.
