    Water Softner Sizing Approved by:

    (1) Required grain removal per Gallon


    (grain/gal)
    gr/gal=Δ ppm/17 . 1

    Inlet Water Hardness = 350 ppm (Very Hard)


    Outlet Water Hardness = 50 ppm
    ⌂ Hardness = 300 ppm
    1 grain per gallon = 17.1 ppm

    Total grains per gallon = 17.55 grain / gal

    (2) Water Usage per Day


    gals/day=gpm×60×hrs/day
    (gal/day)

    Average Flow Rate = 21 gpm


    Conversion = 60 min/hr
    Operating Hours per day = 24 hrs / day

    Water Usage per Day = 30240 gals/day

    (3) Required Exchange Capacity


    gr gal
    (grains/day) gr /day= ×
    gal day

    Total grains per gallon = 17.55 grain / gal from (1)


    Water Usage per Day = 30240 gals/day from (2)

    Required Exchange Capacity = 530712 gr / day

    (4) Required Resin


    (ft3) Resin=(REC×N/Cap)

    Required Exchange Capacity (REC) = 530712 gr / day from (3)


    Days of operation / regeneration (N) = 1 day
    Resin Exchange Capacity (Cap) = 32000 gr /ft3 of resin

    Required Resin = 16.6 ft3 of resin = 0.5 m3

    (5) Salt Consumption per Generation


    (lb) Salt=( ResinCap×Salt Dosage )

    Required Resin = 16.6 ft3 from (4)


    Salt Dosage = 15 lb/ft3 salt dosage
    Salt Consumption per Generation = 249 lbs = 113.2 kg

    Extract from ASPE, Chap 11 - Water Treatment, Conditioning, and Purification Approved by:

    The following are extracts from ASPE Data Book, Volume 2, Chapter 11 - " Water Treatment,
    Conditioning, and Purification".

    Hardness: is a measure of the total calcium, magnesium, iron and other metallic elements that
    contribute to the "hard" feel of water. Carbonate, sulfate, and chloride salts of these
    elements are responsible for most of the scaling deposited on pipe and boiler walls.
    Generally accepted practice limits the term "hardness" to include only calcium and
    magnesium. Hardness is usually expressed in terms of mg/L (ppm) as CaCO 3.

    Often, Water is characterized in general terms by the amount of hardness as follows:

    Soft 0 - 75 mg/L (ppm) as CaCO3


    Moderate 76 - 150 mg/L (ppm) as CaCO3
    Hard 151 - 300 mg/L (ppm) as CaCO3
    Very hard > 300 mg/L (ppm) as CaCO3
