Down-flow regeneration, take 400~750;
Up-flow regeneration, take 450~1000. If
the inlet water hardness is higher, the

② Backwash Time T2
Generally, it is suggested to set 10~15 minutes. The higher the turbidity is, the longer
backwash time shall be set. However, if the turbidity is more than 5FTU, it is better to install
a filter in front of the exchanger.

Generally, the water for fast rinse is 3~6 times of resin volume. It is suggested to be
set 10~16 minutes, but it should meet the requirements of qualified outlet water.
