Hardness ranges according to the German Act on Environmental Sustainability of Detergents and Cleaning Agents (WMRG): The total hardness of the water is the sum of the concentrations of calcium ions and magnesium ions.
  • Page 11 Basic Information Water Softeners 3 | Ion exchange The exchange of calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions causes the water to become soft. Principle The hard raw water flows through an exchanger tank. This tank is filled with a resin, to which sodium ions are bonded at certain positions (see fig.
