Cation Resin Filter Cartridge (Refillable) for Water Softening, Size - 10" x 2.5"

10-inch x 2.5-Inch Whole House Cation resin filter cartridge (refillable)

For Hardness Reduction, Softening your water by releasing Hydrogen (H+) ions or other positively charged ions in exchange for impurity cations present in the water. The process involves passing water containing hardness ions, namely calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) through a column containing a strongly acidic cation exchange resin in the sodium (Na+) form (i.e. the exchangeable cations are sodium). The calcium and magnesium ions are exchanged for an equivalent number of sodium ions. The resin, once exhausted, (i.e. all the available sodium ions have been exchanged) must be re-charged. This entails passing a solution containing a high concentration of sodium salts such as brine (sodium chloride) through the ion exchange resin - a process known as regeneration.

• Size: 2.5" x 10" - Compatible with most standard 10" size housings and commonly used in reverse osmosis systems.
• Refillable Filter Cartridge: Available in convenient 5-pound bulk bags.
• Physical Dimensions: Inner Diameter (ID): 1-1/8", Outer Diameter (OD): 2-3/4", Length: 10".
• Operating Temp.: 40°F-125°F
• Max. Operating Pressure: 80 PSI
• Max. Flow rate: 2.5GPM
• Capacity: 1040 Grains or 17,800 PPM

Utilizing the cation exchange resin cartridge, this solution effectively reduces hardness by releasing Hydrogen (H+) ions or other positively charged ions in exchange for impurity cations present in the water. The process involves passing water containing hardness ions, specifically calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+), through a column housing a strongly acidic cation exchange resin in the sodium (Na+) form. The calcium and magnesium ions are then exchanged for an equivalent number of sodium ions.

Once the resin is exhausted, necessitating recharging, a solution with a high concentration of sodium salts, such as brine (sodium chloride), is passed through the ion exchange resin, a process known as regeneration.

Common Cations: Hydrogen (H+), Sodium (Na+), Potassium (K+), Calcium (Ca+2), Magnesium (Mg+2), Ferrous (Fe+2), Ferric (Fe+3). Upgrade your water softening process with our high-grade cation exchange resin for optimal performance and extended filter life.
