Nelsen 210K Commercial Water Softener — Skid-Mounted (FRP)

Nelsen 210,000-Grain Commercial Water Softener Family

The Nelsen 210,000-grain commercial water softener skid-mounted line is engineered to provide reliable and efficient softening for medium to large facilities requiring high-capacity treatment. Designed with durable fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) tanks, these units offer excellent corrosion resistance and longevity in demanding commercial environments.

Capacity and Facility Suitability

With a capacity of 210,000 grains, this family of water softeners is ideal for facilities such as boiler feed systems, cooling towers, laundries, food service operations, and multi-unit housing complexes. The substantial grain capacity ensures extended run times between regenerations, supporting continuous high-flow demands typically found in these applications.

Commercial Twin and Alternating Softening Explained

Commercial softeners often require uninterrupted softened water supply. The Nelsen family includes configurations featuring twin or alternating control valves that allow one tank to be in service while the other regenerates. This alternating operation ensures consistent soft water availability, critical for operations that cannot tolerate downtime.

Configurations Offered

• WS2 Metered Demand (WS2 Mtr.): This variant utilizes a WS2 series control valve equipped with a metered demand regeneration system. It monitors actual water usage and initiates regeneration only when capacity depletion is detected, optimizing salt and water usage. Ideal for facilities with variable water consumption patterns.

Control Valve Configuration Differences

The Nelsen line's primary differentiation lies in the control valve configurations:

• Metered Demand (WS2 Mtr.): Regenerates based on actual water usage, maximizing efficiency by avoiding unnecessary regenerations.
• Time-Clock: (Not included in this family but available in others) regenerates on a preset schedule, suitable for consistent daily water use.
• Alternating (WS4 series): Alternates service between two tanks to provide continuous soft water during regeneration cycles.
• Quick-Connect (WS2QC): Features quick-connect fittings for faster installation and maintenance.

This product family focuses on the WS2 Metered Demand variant, providing precise regeneration control and efficient operation.

Applications

The Nelsen 210,000-grain skid-mounted softeners are well-suited for a variety of commercial applications, including:

• Boiler feed water treatment to prevent scale buildup and extend equipment lifespan.
• Cooling towers to maintain system efficiency and reduce maintenance.
• Laundries requiring high volumes of softened water for quality fabric care.
• Food service operations to improve water quality for cleaning and processing.
• Multi-unit housing complexes ensuring consistent water softness across multiple residences.

Installation and Service

These skid-mounted softeners are designed for straightforward installation and ease of service. The FRP tanks provide durability while the metered control valve simplifies regeneration management. Service technicians can efficiently monitor and maintain the systems, reducing downtime and operational costs.
