Iron Removal
CG8-BL-HP has good capacity for ferrous iron. Iron content in the feedwater should not be more than 1 mg/L Fe per each 17 mg/L of hardness.
Ammonia Removal
CG8-BL-HP is slightly selective for ammonia compared to sodium but hardness is much more preferred. Ammonia is not ionized at pH above 9 and is not well removed when the pH is significantly alkaline.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Product Technical Data
Capacity and leakage data are based on the following: 2:1 Ca:Mg ratio, 500 ppm TDS as CaCO₃, 0.2% hardness in the salt and 10% brine concentration applied co-currently through the resin over 30 minutes. No engineering downgrade has been applied.
