AmberLite™ 14i Inert Resin is a floating, non-functionalized, transparent, cylindrical-shaped resin specifically designed for use as an upper layer in down-flow regenerated ion exchange systems, such as floating beds. This inert resin has a specific gravity lower than water, which ensures it will stay above the ion exchange resin bed. The inert forms a protective layer to prevent plugging of the distribution nozzles during the compaction/bed-lift step in case fines are present in the resin bed. Use of AmberLite 14i is optional in AMBERPACK™ Ion Exchange Systems with AmberLite HPR packed bed resins installed.
