Res-Kem offers resin traps (or media traps) that are prevention devices on
water treatment system lines to insure against complete loss of media in the
event of a failure. A resin trap is used on service outlet and backwash lines
on ion exchange units, high purity water systems, and activated carbon and media
filters. The resin trap is activated by escaping media at the onset of a
failure, and the media that collects in the resin trap blocks water flow and
extensive loss of media.
Resin Trap Benefits
- Eliminates mass resin/media loss into piping
distribution system
- Prevents loss of resin during backwashing
- Protects downstream equipment and pumps
- Visual detection of minor resin/media losses in advance
of major equipment failure
Resin Traps Uses
A resin trap is designed and installed to prevent the loss of media in the event of:
- Underdrain failure
- Lateral failure
- Strainer failure
The resin trap is typically placed:
- Between units
- After a unit
- In a backwash line
Resin Trap Features
- PVC and stainless steel construction
- Clear acrylic tube for unobstructed viewing
- Resin/media blowdown valve for trap cleaning and media retrieval
- High flow rates with low pressure loss, (Clean trap pressure drop is less than 2.0 psig)
- End connection options: threaded, socket or flanged
