Title: DI Water Pressure
Post by: Mike #1 on November 22, 2012, 05:25:08 pm

Is their a recommended water pressure for putting through DI vessel i have a 11 ltr vessel and have really good water pressure i can produce over 150 ltrs  in about 10 mins and that is not with tap on full .

Will the high water pressure affect the life of my resin  ??? ??? ??? ???. Mike

Hi M
http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=150109.0
There's loads on this going back if you search - but it seems there is a relationship between how effective the resin is Vs rate of flow through the resin.

Thanks for that granny well taken care off .

I asked my wife to fill tank today as she was at home and she only turned tap 2 turns and in 10-15 mins i had over 150 ltrs of pure water . So need to reduce water pressure best adjust at stopcock .

                                 Thanks again Mike

resin wont last long doing that. the slower the water the longer the resin will last.
i do mine at a litre a minute roughly.
