WATER SOFTENING

Limescale deposits constitute another major problem arising during exploitation of industrial cooling systems and steam boiler systems, this process negatively impacts effectiveness of the heat exchange. Water softening involves exchanging ions of calcium and magnesium (responsible for water hardness) for neutral ions of sodium.

This effect is ensured by filtering water through ion-exchange resin where the water softening process occurs. Both water softening process as well as the regeneration of the water softening station occur automatically. Since the beginning of our business activity we have been using high-class Clack control valves. Their failure-free operation ensures durability of the ion-exchange resin bed allowing our clients to enjoy their reliable water softening stations for years.

By supplying soft water we will avoid problems such as:
- limescale deposits
- blockages in narrow coils inside machines
- poor heat exchange

Depending on the demand for zero hardness water, softening stations can be divided into:

- single-cylinder water softening stations (applied mostly in circuits with minimum, predictable
supply, during the process of resin bed regeneration(approximately 2 hours) there is a break in
soft water supply)
- double-cylinder and multi-cylinder water softening stations guarantee continuous softened water
supply(the process of regeneration of the resin bed in separate cylinders is programmed to
ensure continuous supply of softened water.

Double-cylinder and multi-cylinder water softening stations are used in circuits with significant, continuous or unpredictable water demand. This kind of water softening is most frequently applied
in cooling systems of cooling towers and steam boiler houses. Selecting a suitable water softening station is an individual process depending among others on the demand for softened water as well as physico-chemical parameters of supply water established on the basis of water analysis carried out by our company.
