Marine Water Softener

MAS series Marine Water Softener is designed and manufactured according to latest technology,It’s controlled by time brine refill and meter setting procedure, can work continuous 24 hours around . It has two resin tanks, one work the other stay. Hardness in water is caused by ions of calcium and magnesium. Some water users onboard ships need softened water, e.g. hot water circuits, laundry water, galley water, boiler feed water, cooling water, dish washers. Hardness of water consists of those ions (mainly Calcium and Magnesium) which can give rise to scaling. Softening is attained by the replacement of hardness ions with Sodium ones (which have no scaling capacity) by means of ion exchangers (resin). As soon as the exchanger has exhausted its exchange capacity, it becomes necessary to regenerate it. This is attained by having a solution of Sodium chloride (table salt) percolate through the mass of resin. The service-regeneration cycle is automatically effected by softeners which essentially consist of a pressure tank (housing the exchanger bed) and a brine tank.
