Autotrol Basic Automatic Water Softener
Excessive hardness in water due to high levels of calcium carbonate will cause scale buildup on pipes and particularly water heating elements. Also there will be difficulty getting soap and detergents to lather. All these problems can be eliminated efficiently and automatically using an Autotrol Water Softener. These utilise the ion exchange process where the calcium is replaced with the more soluble sodium. This is all done automatically using a timer control which allows the water softener resin bed to backwash and regenerate with a brine solution as required.
The Autotrol range of water softeners is our basic range which covers a flow rate from 30 to 150 Litres per minute. Each softener is supplied complete with all components including control head in either timer or capacity based control of regenerations, FRP softener vessel, brine tank, brine suction and refill, transformer and connection manifold. Systems can also be supplied as Duplex. These systems need site installation and commissioning.
