Technical Information

The Chemistry

  • 1 Blended in a specialised foundry process, each alloy core is made up of a number of dissimilar metals scientifically selected from the anode and cathode galvanic scale. The alloy is not a sacrificial anode (i.e. does not need replacement).
  • 2 On contact with water thousands of intense galvanic electrochemical reactions occur along the length of the alloy core.
  • 3 Minerals are attracted to these galvanic sites as they flow through the system.
  • 4 The electrical charge or zeta potential of the minerals in the water is reduced allowing the minerals to aggregate and form nano sized colloids which remain in suspension rather than precipitate on pipes and associated equipment.

The Physics

  • 1 Each alloy core has been designed and engineered for a specific flow range.
  • 2 Each core has offset discs so that there is no direct route for the water to travel. There is a definite water alloy contact.
  • 3 Water velocity is increased as water is squeezed through the disc apertures and on through the chambers along the length of the core.
  • 4 High and low pressure areas are developed either side of each disc.
  • 5 Extreme turbulence is generated in each chamber along the length of the core.
  • 6 The increase in water velocity and turbulence combine and create a mechanical washing action which prevents minerals building up on the core.

THE RESULTS AND ADVANTAGES

Nuclei are introduced into the system providing an attractive site for minerals to combine as nano sized colloids which remain in suspension and flow through the system rather than precipitating on pipes and equipment. These subtle changes to the electrical charge of the minerals in water have significant effects on reducing down stream costly hard water problems!

Subtle changes to the minerals in water have significant effects on reducing downstream costly hard water problems!

  • Softer, ‘wetter’ water!
  • Reduced hard water problems!
  • Investment in capital equipment is protected!
  • Reduced scaling and corrosion issues!
  • Soaps, detergents and shampoos mix and lather better with softer water!
  • Laundry items feel softer!
  • Swimming pool water is clearer, softer, backwashing is reduced, scum lines are more easily cleaned away, salt water chlorinators work more effectively, there is no scale build up, black spot disappears and chemical usage is reduced!
  • Water with a lower surface tension is more easily absorbed into the ground, reducing surface crust and runoff improving plant and crop health.
  • Able to irrigate with brackish water

STANDARD WATER SYSTEM

water-flow

WITH SOFTERWATER CONDITIONER

STANDARD WATER SYSTEM SCALE-CAUSING MINERALS HAVE A HIGH ELECTRICAL CHARGE, REPEL EACH OTHER AND ‘STICK’ TO PIPES AND EQUIPMENT CAUSING COSTLY HARD WATER PROBLEMS.

SOFTERWATER CONDITIONER-THE SOFTERWATER ALLOY PRODUCES A TURBULENT MINERAL-ATTRACTING GALVANIC ACTION REDUCING THE ELECTRICAL CHARGE OF MINERALS. NON-STICKING NANO SIZED COLLOIDS ARE FORMED AND FLOW THROUGH THE SYSTEM IN SUSPENSION SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING HARD WATER PROBLEMS.
