Specification of Amberjet 1200 H cation resin

AMBERJET™ 1200 H Industrial Grade Strong Acid Cation
Exchanger

 

Description

 

AMBERJET 1200 H resin is a uniform particle
size, high quality,
strong acid cation
exchanger designed for use in all
general demineralisation systems. The uniformity and mean particle size of
AMBERJET 1200 H resin have been optimised for use in industrial demineralisation equipment including
mixed beds when paired with AMBERJET 4200 Cl resin. AMBERJET 1200 H resin can
be directly substituted for conventional gel cation exchange resin in new
equipment and in rebeds of existing installations.

Performance

 

Operating capacity and sodium leakage
depend on several factors such as water analysis, temperature and regenerant level.
The engineering data sheets EDS 0355 A, 0356 A, 0359 A, and 0360 A, provide
information to calculate them.

Limits of Use

 

AMBERJET 1200 H resin is suitable
for industrial uses.
For all other specific applications such as pharmaceutical, food processing or potable water
applications, it is recommended that all potential users seek advice
from Rohm and Haas in order
to determine the best resin choice and optimum operating conditions.
