Oven-Dried Mechanical Tablet Salt

Oven-dried mechanical tablet salt is a water softening product based on dried salt and pressed mechanically. Positioned between mechanical tablets and refined PDV tablets, it is considered for applications where a drier raw material form is preferred. Compatibility with the softener and suitability for use are determined from the product's technical properties and the operating conditions.

Use in Water Softening Systems

In suitable softeners working with ion exchange resin, it helps prepare the brine used during regeneration. The choice takes into account the equipment manufacturer's recommendation, the brine tank design, the consumption pattern and the product analysis.

Applications

  • Industrial resin regeneration systemsUsed in the brine tank to regenerate ion exchange resin in plants preparing process water.
  • Commercial and institutional facilitiesFor regular use in softeners that accept salt tablets.
  • Hotel and laundry water treatmentIn softeners feeding hot water and washing lines.
  • Boiler feed water pre-treatmentIn softening units that reduce the hardness of water going to the boiler.
  • Utility water lines in food plantsUsed in service and process water softeners; the salt is not added to food and no food contact suitability is claimed.

Salt tablets are not the chlorine tablets used for pool disinfection.

Use in the softener

Tablets are loaded into the softener's brine tank. Keep the salt level above the water level so that enough brine forms for regeneration. Not mixing different salt types in the same tank and cleaning the tank at the intervals recommended by the equipment manufacturer reduces the risk of bridging and sediment.

Choosing correctly

  • Salt type recommended by the equipment maker (tablet, granular or PDV tablet)
  • Design of the brine tank and monthly consumption
  • Water hardness and regeneration frequency
  • Humidity of the storage area
  • The product analysis

Storage

Store tablets in a dry, covered area without direct contact with the floor. Tablets kept in humid conditions can stick together and bridge in the brine tank; this is largely a matter of storage conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Are oven-dried mechanical tablets and PDV tablets the same product?

No. The tablet form may look similar, but the way the raw material is processed and the analysis properties can differ.

Are salt tablets chlorine tablets?

No. Salt tablets used for water softening are sodium chloride for resin regeneration. They are not the chlorine tablets used to disinfect pools.

Which tablet should I choose for my softener?

First check the salt recommendation in your softener manual. If you share the model, water hardness and monthly consumption, we can assess the right option together.
