Round brine tank Canature 350 L, ref. CA-JSYT-350

Overview

This round brine tank of 350 L is a salt reservoir for ion-exchange water softeners. It stores the regeneration salt (tablets) and the water needed to prepare brine. Designed for commercial and industrial use, it provides a comfortable salt reserve between refills and suits both new installations and the replacement of an existing tank. The lid limits evaporation and dust ingress and secures the storage.

Role in softening

A softener removes limescale by binding calcium and magnesium ions onto a resin. Once the resin is saturated it must be regenerated: water drawn from the tank dissolves the salt and forms a concentrated brine, sent into the resin vessel to restore its exchange capacity. The quality and volume of the brine tank therefore govern the regularity of regeneration, the autonomy of the system and, ultimately, the consistency of the treated-water hardness.

Construction & materials

The body is high-density polyethylene (HDPE), valued for its impact, UV and salt-corrosion resistance. Blow/injection moulding provides a seamless, watertight and durable one-piece construction. The materials are suitable for drinking-water contact and brine storage. The smooth inner surface eases cleaning and limits salt-bridge formation.

Dimensions & capacity

Salt storage capacity: about 350 L. Equipment dimensions: Ø 74.0 cm × height 127.5 cm. These figures let you check the footprint, doorway clearance and compatibility with the matching resin vessel. Allow enough access room for salt refilling and brine-well maintenance.

Installation & maintenance

Install the tank on a flat, stable, frost-free surface next to the softener. Connect the brine well and overflow per the valve manufacturer's guidance. Periodically check the salt level, clean the base once or twice a year and watch for salt bridges. A suitable grid plate and brine well optimise dissolution and regeneration reliability.

Salt & water savings

A well-sized, clean brine tank optimises salt dissolution and avoids overfilling: only the necessary salt and water are used at each regeneration. A regular brine limits needless rinses and drain discharge. HDPE is recyclable and the tank's longevity (UV and corrosion resistance) spaces out replacements, for a system that is both economical and respectful of the water resource.

Choosing right

To choose well, check the desired salt capacity (autonomy between refills), the footprint and ceiling height, and compatibility with your softener's resin vessel and valve. Provide the grid floor and brine well matched to the diameter. If unsure about sizing or compatibility, the DIMM team will help you pick the most suitable reference.

Good to know

Salt type affects performance: use quality softener salt tablets (sodium chloride) to limit deposits and tank fouling. Do not let the level drop too low between refills. A salt bridge (hardened surface crust) can mimic a full tank while salt no longer dissolves: break it and clean the base if regeneration weakens. A clean tank means consistently softened water.
