Lewatit® SM 600 KR is a ready-to-use mixed bed resin comprising strongly acidic gel-type cation and strongly basic (type I) gel-type anion exchange resin in fully regenerated form (min. 99% H/95% OH). Lewatit SM 600 KR is a 1:1 stoichiometric mixture (other mix ratio available on request), premium grade and purified (extremely low content of desorbable chloride ions and no organically bound chlorine) to meet nuclear industry specifications. Lewatit nuclear resins (Lewatit KR) are noted for their outstanding mechanical and chemical stability as well as their high osmotic stability. Because of their excellent hydrodynamic properties, Lewatit KR resins allow particularly high flow rates. The narrow particle size distribution and very low fines content of max. 0.1% (<3.15mm) result in particularly low pressure losses compared with standard resins. Used in radioactive water circuits, they provide a number of special tasks and guarantee a water quality that fully complies with the requirements of the nuclear power industry. Lewatit SM 600 KR is particularly suitable for the:- polishing in the primary and secondary sections as a mixed bed component
- decontamination of circuits in nuclear reactor plants
- treatment of primary coolant e.g. in pressure water reactors
- purification of steam generator blowdown irrespective of the condition with Levoxin (hydrazine), ethanolamine or morpholine
- removal of activated cleavage or corrosion products, including mechanical filtration of suspended impurities
