Softening Resin
ProSoft™ Gold

Pressure Drop ProSoft™ Gold: We found a way to save you some money here and still get the job done. A 7% crosslinked softening resin that is for low or non-chlorinated waters. ProSoft Gold is perfect for well water and non-turbulator applications. Excellent exchange capability and every bag is prewashed and rinsed so that you don't have to do it in the field.
PRESSURE DROP - The graph above shows the expected pressure loss per foot of bed depth as a function of flow rate at various temperatures.

Features

  • Complies with USDA & FDA regulations (paragraph 21 CFR173.5) for potable water applications.*
  • Uniform particle size, low pressure drop.
  • Superior physical stability.
  • Low color throw (APHA No. 50 Max. as shipped).
* For potable water applications, the resin must be properly pre-treated, usually by multiple exhaustion and regeneration cycles, to insure compliance with extractable levels.
