WATERCLEAN 1600
Version 03/2008
DESCRIPTION
- 15 -
The reverse osmosis procedure extracts minerals from the water dur-
ing treatment. If this water is the sole drinking water source for ex-
tended periods, Kärcher recommends the metered addition of rem-
ineralisation chemicals in order to avoid deficiency symptoms for the
effected persons resulting thereof.
The metered addition is to be carried out after consultation with
Kärcher.
Additive Dosage Station,
Drinking Water This dosage station can be used, e.g., for addition of a further chemi-
cal to adapt the pH-value. The set-up/design of the dosage station is
identical with the station previously described. However, it is better
accessible for the operator, so that this dosage station can also be
used for permanent chlorination/remineralization.

Anti Scalant (Option) Using the second dosing pump (3/42) an anti scalant chemical can be
added to the raw water.
Scaling is known as the precipitation of inorganic salts on the mem-
brane by surpassing the solubility in the conditioning process. In or-
der to reduce these precipitations, Anti Scalant must be applied.
For mixing the anti scalant chemical, a second container (3/43) is inte-
grated in the pre-treatment module.
