Product Performance Summary

Typically, all water used for personal, commercial or industrial consumption carries in solution or suspension many different elements and compounds that it has come in contact with on its journey to the end user. Many of these are salts, as they are referred to chemically, and may be in many forms. However, the most common are those formed by calcium and magnesium carbonates and their bicarbonates. It is these salts that are responsible for the general hardness of any particular water supply. typically, the deposits formed by these compounds are referred to as scale or lime deposits.

In order for these compounds to form deposits, they must collect together to form particles that have enough mass and surface charge to be able to overcome the velocity of the fluid flow within a system. Once they have attained this mass, they will then adhere to a piping or heat exchange surface. if allowed to collect untreated, these deposits can form in quantities sufficient to effectively restrict water flow in a piping system, reduce heat exchange efficiency, speed the various other problems. However, when these deterioration of your system and generate salts are subjected to a strong electrostatic field.

The concept of anelectrostatic water treatment system utilizes basic electrical technology to create an electrostatic field. An technology to create an electrostatic field. An electrode, coated with a polymer that has a high dielectric constant coupled with excellent chemical and abrasion resistance, is charged to 30 KV dc. The dielectric insulator allows the creation of a strong electrostatic field between the surface of the electrode and the interior surface of the treatment chamber or pipe. The insulator protects the fluid from coming into direct contact with the charge applied to the electrode.

This electrostatic field will then control the development of scale deposits by reducing the size of the particle collections in solution and by interfering with their ability to bond together and form deposits. In addition, the surface tension of the water molecules passing through the chamber is reduced, which allows the water to absorb greater quantities of the scale and deposit forming minerals and carry them away in suspension. As a result scale that has been formed within a system will gradually return to solution 'and be carried away with the water flow.

The daily operating cost of the electrostatic water treatment system is less than seventy cents and saves the cost of chemical treatment and the labor required to remove scale deposits. It is a very economical means of water treatment.
