Scale preventers for building and industrial plant protection

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document details an electronic anti-scaling system designed for building and industrial plant protection, capable of handling up to 100 m³/h. It prevents scaling in pressurized installations and progressively descales old systems using a physical process that retains minerals and trace elements in the water.

Key Features:

Preserves water drinkability and calcium carbon balance.
Leaves a non-binding calcium film that can be easily wiped off.
Low electricity consumption and no water or salt usage.
No maintenance required with an average life cycle of 20 years.

Applications: Suitable for general cold water supply, hot water production, community buildings, hotels, retirement homes, heat exchangers, cooling circuits, and various industrial processes.

Operating Principle: The system uses an AC pulse electrical field to influence calcium and hydrogen carbonate ions, promoting the formation of calcium carbonate nano-crystals. These crystals remain suspended in the water, preventing scaling without removing calcium.

Installation and Maintenance:

Easy installation on incoming water pipes or hot water loops.
Requires proper earthing of equipment and pipes.
No maintenance needed, but upstream filter cartridges should be changed annually if present.

Technical Specifications:

Electrical supply: 230 V ~ 50-60 Hz, max. 50 VA.
Consumption: 7 kWh per month.
Protection: IP 31, EC compliant.
Service pressure: 12 bars, water temperature range: 5 to 70°C.
Materials: Pressure PVC for cold water, Stainless 316L for hot water.

Guarantee: 1-year parts and labor, excluding transport.

Diagrams and Part Numbers: The document includes diagrams and part numbers for various applications, detailing dimensions and weights for cold and hot water systems.

Scale preventers for building and industrial plant protection-1

ELECTRONIC ANTI-SCALING Building and industrial plant protection (up to 100 m3/h) OPERATING PRINCIPLE Electronic anti-scaling systems (patented process) apply an AC pulse electrical field to the natural electrical charges of the calcium ions (Ca2+) and hydrogen carbonate ions (H2CO3-)that are dissolved in the water. The action of this electrical field causes ionic movement (Coulomb’s law). This movement displaces the calcium-carbon balance towards the formation of nano-crystals of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). 2 HCO3– + Ca2+ ⇔ CaCO3 + H2O + CO2. These nano-crystals remain in suspension in the water flow and stimulate crystallisation by fixing calcium ions that haven’t been transformed. Scaling is thus neutralised without the calcium having been removed from the water. The nano-crystals are evacuated as water is drawn off for consumption. Calcium is perfectly assimilated by the human organism. F IELDS OF APPLICATION - General cold water supply in buildings. - Community buildings (cold water, sanitary hot water). - Retirement homes. - Heat exchangers. - Cooling circuits. - Foodstuffs, industrial and pharmaceutical processes with no water evaporation phase. - Water pumping and treatment stations. MAJOR ADVANTAGES of electronic anti-scaling - ressurised installations effectively protected against scaling. P - Progressive descaling of old installations. - Physical process leaving all minerals and trace elements in the water. - Preservation of water drinkability and of its calcium carbon balance. - eaves a light whitish powdery non-binding film (calcium) when the L water evaporates in the open air, but which can be wiped off without abrasion or solvent. - Does not consume water or salt. Electricity consumption is low. - No maintenance required. - Average life cycle: 20 years. - Process manufactured since 1987.
