Operating Profile
The deionizer shall remove ions from tap water through a two-stage, separate bed ion exchange process. A water quality
greater than 1,000,000 ohm/cm (1 umhos conductivity) can possibly be achieved based on inlet quality. The deionizer shall
provide a near continuous flow of deionized water through the use of a duplex (two tank) configuration. This duplex
configuration shall operate with 50% of the resin in reserve or in regeneration. System regenerations shall be initiated by
measuring the feed water quality and flow rate, to accumulate the total loading on the system. Once the accumulated load
surpasses the systems operating capacity a regeneration is initiated.

Regeneration Valve
One regeneration valve shall be used with each set of cation tanks and one with each set of anion tanks. These regeneration
valves shall be top mounted (top of media tank), and manufactured from non-corrosive materials. Each valve shall not weigh
more than four pounds. Each valve shall provide service and regeneration control for two media tanks. Inlet and outlet ports
shall accept a 3/4" quick connect, double o-ring sealed adapter. The adapter shall be made of PVC and provide a 3/4"
connection. Interconnection between the tanks shall be made through the regeneration valve with a 3/4" quick connect
adapter. The valve shall operate using a minimum inlet pressure of 60 psi. Pressure shall be used to drive all valve functions.
No electric hook-up shall be required for the control valve. Control valve shall incorporate three cycles for the regeneration
process of the cation vessel including; acid draw, slow rinse, and fast rinse. The acid draw cycle shall flow opposite the service
flow, providing a countercurrent regeneration. The control valve shall incorporate four cycles for the regeneration process of
the anion vessel including; stand-by tank purge, caustic draw, slow rinse, and fast rinse. The caustic draw cycle shall flow
opposite the service flow, providing a countercurrent regeneration. The valve shall contain a fixed orifice eductor nozzle and
self-adjusting backwash flow control. The control will prevent the bypass of tap water to service during the regeneration cycle.

Media Tanks
The tanks shall measure 12” in diameter and 52” tall. A total of two cation tanks will be used, with one tank in service at all
times. A total of two anion tanks will be used, with one tank in service at all times. The tanks will be designed for a maximum
working pressure of 125 psi and hydrostatically tested at 300 psi. Tanks shall be made of fiberglass reinforced polyester with
a 2.5” threaded top opening. Each tank shall be NSF approved. The upper and lower distribution system shall be of a slot
design. They will provide for the even distribution of regeneration water and the collection of processed water.

Deionization Media
Each deionizer shall include 4.4 cubic feet of high-capacity, strong acid cation resin, with an exchange capacity of 26,000
grains per cubic foot when regenerated with 4 pounds of hydrochloric acid per cubic foot of resin. The deionizer shall also
include 5.6 cubic feet of high-capacity, strong base anion resin, with an exchange capacity of 20,000 grains per cubic foot
when regenerated with 6 pounds of sodium hydroxide per cubic foot of resin. Inert polypropylene beads shall be used to
tightly pack the resin tanks, while still allowing the resin space for expansion and contraction.

System Pump
The system shall use a multi-stage centrifugal pump to pressurize water to the proper operating pressures and flow for the
deionizer. The pump is designed to draw water from an atmospheric source. A return loop is used to provide a continuous
flow of water pass the pump during operation, preventing low flow conditions. Pump construction shall be 316 stainless steel
for corrosion resistance.

System Controls
The system shall use a programmable logic controller (PLC) to control the start of resin regeneration. The PLC shall monitor
inlet quality of the feed water and the flow rate being processed by the system. Using these factors, a loading is calculated,
and regenerations are performed based on this inlet loading. Regenerations are initiated once the accumulative incoming load
exceeds the preset capacity of the resin tank. During normal operation, the PLC will divert off-spec water by opening the
system’s purge valve and closing the process outlet valve. Water above the set point will be directed to the process outlet of
the system. System operations and alarms can be set at the system’s Operator Interface Panel. The OIP shall provide a
touch screen interface for the control of the system. Touch Screen shall provide access to the system’s operating history for a
minimum of 5 days. All system adjustments can be modified, through a password-protected section of the touch screen.

Chemical Draw System

The control valve will draw regeneration chemicals from a standard 55 gallon chemical drum. The system will provide for an
adjustable throttling valving, allowing the flow of chemical to be regulated from 0-10 pounds per cubic foot. The chemical draw
assembly will be compatible with the corrosive chemicals being educted.

System Skid
Each deionizer shall be skid mounted and prewired. Installation hook-ups shall be limited to plumbing and electrical
connections. Skid construction shall be from 304 grade stainless steel. Finish shall include cleaning and sandblasting. Skid
dimensions shall not exceed 27.5” (width) x 69.5” (height) x 39” (depth). Skid design shall include anchoring feet for securing
skid to foundation. Skid shall include grounding lugs for ground anchoring and shall be properly grounded with all skid
mounted electrical components.
