Low Energy Systems will continue discussing water quality in our heating systems focusing on the importance of VDI 2035. What is VDI 2035? VDI (https://www.vdi.de/en/home) is the Association of German Engineers. Directive VDI 2035 directly address, demineralization and the subsequent scaling and corrosion.
Radiators, heat pumps, boilers and pipelines, all use circuits containing heated water. But the filling water of these systems must be treated. Modern heating mechanisms use a mixture of materials, including steel, aluminum, stainless steel or copper. These different materials interact with the filling water, or more precisely with the ions and particles it contains or produces under the effect of heat. This reaction, if not controlled, causes corrosions and scaling. These deposits and corrosions alter the operation of the heating system. Directive VDI 2035, defines the quality of the filling water for these modern heating systems expressed in °dH. The 6 step optimization process is spelled out on the Magnetic web page (https://magnetic-online.de/en/vdi-2035) .
Typically, the hot water circuits do not have any mechanism of filtration or demineralization. Some manufacturers have looked into the issue, however, it currently falls to the installer to determine if the supply water is suitable and/or provide a device capable of keeping the water clean as to not corrode the system.
What does Low Energy Systems offer to help measure and demineralize water?
Low energy systems is proud to Introduce the
Magnetic basic mobil mini
The filling station magnetic basic mobil mini is ideal for service technicians and companies, who primarily maintain residential heating systems. The filling station features compact outside dimensions and is weight (11lbs empty). This will keep you from wearing out even after several fills in 1 day. The integrated measuring computer shows the exact conductivity of the demineralized water in the outlet and it indicates exceedances of the setpoint with a light signal. The resettable digital flow meter also guarantees an exact logging and billing of the filling towards the customer.
Magnetic mixed bed resin PREMIUM
The quality of the resin makes the difference in the quality of heating water. It is particularly important not to compromise here. That is why we only supply resin of the highest quality standard.
* Vacuum packed for capacity maintenance
* Optimal mixing ratio
* Supports self-alkalization (pH value increase)
* Certification verifiable via QR code
* Suitable fo all amterials including aluminum
* 100% non-regenerated resin
* Measuring Computer
A second light weight measuring computer can be bought and added separately to monitor your return water.
