Chemical Condition
The condition of the resin is rated according to its measured Exchange Capacity:
GOOD = 81 - 100% of original capacity
FAIR = 70 - 80% of original capacity
POOR = 50 - 69% of original capacity
VERY POOR = < 50% of original capacity
Physical Condition
The Physical Condition of the resin is rated according to the amount of broken or stress-cracked
beads observed during the microscopic examination as well as the Water Retention Capacity (WRC).
GOOD
= 0-9% Broken Beads & <20% Stress-Cracked Beads & <60% WRC
FAIR
= 10-14% Broken Beads &/or >= 20% Stress-Cracked Beads &/or 60-79% WRC
POOR
= 15-50% Broken Beads &/or >=80% WRC
VERY POOR = >50% Broken Beads
Contaminants
The level of metal contaminants on the resin is a concern as they can have an operational affect on

the unit's performance. See the recommendation section for a suggested cleaning procedure.
Recommendations
Based on the types and amounts of contaminants present on the resin, we recommend application of
C1000 - Cation Resin Cleaning Procedure.
Clean-up procedures for Ion Exchange resins are located in the Knowledge Management System
(KMS) of Lotus Notes. Search the KMS database for the procedure title. An alternative is to
perform a more general search of the KMS. Type "Resin Cleaning" in the search keywords field and
click on <Find Documents Now>. Then scan the resulting documents for the desired resin cleaning
procedure document. Procedures are also available through Nalco sales representives and
technicians.
