4.3 Precautions
The correct operation of a unit, as well as the whole heating system, depends on the water
quality. Often water treatment is considered an unnecessary cost, not considering the
amount of damage that can result from this choice.
The warranty of the ModuSat is strictly related to the absolute respect of
the instructions and procedures indicated in this manual as well as the
The warranty doesn’t cover damage caused by scale and corrosion due to
unsuitable water treatment.
Check also that the parts and materials use to build the system don’t produce dissolved
oxygen that cause corrosion:
make sure there is no depression pockets in the system
remove gas permeable parts and materials
make sure the expansion vessels are properly sized and the pre-charge pressure value
in order to guarantee positive pressure values, with respect to the ambient pressure,
throughout the circuits.
use suitable chemicals (BIONIBAL- BIONIBAGEL) compatible with the materials used
and that can
PREVENT CORROSION
.
During a unit installation or circuit service it’s important to consider a few points about the
supply water used, in order to guarantee the optimal system performance, energy saving
and trouble prevention.
For this reason it’s necessary to adopt some precautions in order to guarantee that
the wet surfaces and the heat exchanging paths of the unit remain clean thus
preventing the build up of scale, limes and other residues non compatible with the
water used in the circuits. The company in charge of the installation must therefore
use the appropriate solution to achieve the results expected, in compliance with the
technical specifications.
Our technical personnel, who will visit when the installation is fully completed to
arrange for its final commissioning and calibration, do not perform the role of
quality control or inspector of the installation or provide approval for the works
carried out. The systems compliance with current standards and legislation and
accordance with the consultant’s requirements remains the exclusive responsibility of the
installation company.
4.4 Corrosion prevention
BIONIBAL corrosion inhibitor for hot and cold water circuits resulting from a specific
research work and is ideal to protect you heating system circuits in four ways :
FIRST LEVEL
corrosion inhibition and block of rust build up.
SECOND LEVEL
acidic component that stops bacteria and algae growth, particularly
useful in under floor heating working at low temperature.
THIRD LEVEL
prevents the aggregation of suspended particles such as tartar, keeping
the surfaces clean (pumps, valves, heat meters, etc.).
FOURTH LEVEL
enables its traceability to monitor the dosage so to guarantee the
best protection level.
Electrolytic corrosion prevention
, in a circuit employing different metals.
IT IS ADVISABLE
to
ADD
the corrosion inhibitor
BIONIBAL
before the system is
put in function (except when different directives are given for boiler protection).
