  • Page 6: Premier Series Automatic Deionizer Features

    Premier Series Automatic Deionizer Features The primary function of the Culligan Premier Series Automatic Deionizer Controller is to initiate and control the regener- ation process via methods that are most convenient and cost effective for the customer while offering many operational features and benefits.

  • Page 9: Basic Principles

    Basic Principles The Deionization Process Deionization or demineralization is the process of removing up to 95 percent of the dissolved minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, manganese, sulfates, chlorides, nitrates and silica from the water supply by way of ion exchange. Dissolved minerals in the water consist of two parts—a metallic part which is a positively charged ion and a non-metal- lic part which is a negatively charged ion.
  • Page 10 During regeneration the unit does not provide water to service. Resin Types and Uses The Culligan Premier Series Automatic Deionizer is supplied with Strong Acid Cation Resin and Type II Strong Base Anion resin or Weak Base Anion resin. Strong Acid Cation Resin is especially suited for the cation removal in high purity water demineralization. This resin pos- sesses high exchange capacity combined with excellent chemical and physical stability under a wide range of operating conditions.

  • Page 11: Water Quality

    Peak Quality Water Quality Length of Service Run Figure 3. Water quality related to length of service run. During normal operation of a two-bed deionizer, after completion of regeneration, the system rinses to a pre-determined quality (usually 50,000 ohms). During operation the quality will continue to climb until the maximum quality is reached. The Sodium Leakage from the Cation resin as previously noted determines the maximum quality of water.

  • Page 55: Regeneration Flow Diagrams

    Regeneration Flow Diagrams Service The deionizer produces quality water during the Service Cycle. Water flows into the cation tank through the Cation Inlet Valve (C2). The water then passes through the cation resin and the cation exchange takes place. The decationized water flows into the distributors and out the bottom of the tank.
  • Page 56 The Backwash time is usually ten minutes. It takes approximately six of those minutes before the resin has reached full expansion. The backwash cycle flushes the particulate matter collected during the service cycle down the drain, and pre- pares the cation resin for the introduction of the acid regenerant. Cat.

  • Page 57 Acid Draw Backwash Inlet (C1), Backwash Outlet (C4) valves and the Cation valve (C2) are now closed. Flow through the pressure regulator directs water to the top of the tank. The acid chemical pump is activated and acid from the chemical container is fed at connection CP.
  • Page 58 Feed water flows through the pressure regulator (PR) and is directed to flow down through the resin rinsing away the excess acid and remaining cations. This water takes the same path as in the previous cycle. NEUTRALIZATION TANK Figure 18. Slow Rinse Cation cycle. Cat. No. 01024000 Culligan® Premier Series Automatic Deionizer...
