Nelsen 10% crosslinked styrene divinylbenzene strong acid cation resin is specially developed to eliminate taste and odor and provide excellent stability. It is primarily used for softening water in municipal and industrial water treatment.

Cation resin in sodium gold bead form removes hardness ions such as calcium and magnesium by replacing them with sodium. When the resin bed is exhausted the hardness ions begin to pass through the bed. Functionality is returned by regeneration with concentrated sodium or potassium chloride solution. The capacity obtained depends largely on the amount of salt used in the regeneration.

Typically 15 lbs. of chemical per ft3 is used to obtain maximum capacity of up to 33,000 grains per ft3.

Note: This product ships in the original packaging and therefore has an overweight shipment surcharge. You can order the 1/2 cu ft box which ships without a surcharge
