Forsta Filter - Similar to the Amiad and the Orival Filters it also is a screen filter that is utilized by
CHC to remove lighter than water particles from the filter flow. Their housings are always
Stainless Steel constructed.
Gauge- CHC utilizes many gauges within our system. We only use stainless steel, glycerin filled
gauges. It is important when ordering a replacement gauge to specify the range, units of measure,
if it is flanged or not and if the pressure connection is on the back (cbm) or on the lower edge of the
dial. EcoWater CHC requires that the replacement gauge’s range be at least 20% larger than the
expected pressure being measured (if you expect 90 psi, then the gauge’s maximum range should
be 120 psi.)
Globe Valve- A globe valve is used to control the flow within a pipe, as the round handle is turned
a large flat plunger (valve seat) is pushed towards the valve body. As the plunger gets closer to the
valve body the flow diminishes, as it moves away the flow increases.
Head Pressures- Head pressures are used in refrigeration systems to identify the efficiency of the
heat exchange surfaces. If the heat exchanger is scaled up the head pressures will increase due to
the heat not being removed from the refrigerant due to possible scaling in the heat exchanger.
HOA Switch- The Hand Or Auto switch is the power switch on the motor starter that is used to
turn the power to the pump ON and OFF. This switch is referenced as an HOA switch even though
the switches used by CHC Systems are marked as ON and OFF only.
Magnesium hardness (Mg): Mg, like Ca, is leached from the soil by rainwater. It contributes to
the total hardness but is generally present at much lower levels than Ca. Magnesium hardness is a
calculated number based on measured total hardness and calcium hardness:
Magnesium hardness = Total hardness - Calcium hardness
Make Up Water - This is the water that is used to refresh the system water. Make Up can come
from city water, reclaimed water, well water, defrost water or most other source of water.
Typically, potable water is used for Make Up.
Motor Starter - A motor starter is the box that controls the power to the pump. If the motor starter
includes a Power Disconnect, then the motor starter is a Combination Motor Starter. To specify a
replacement motor starter the input voltage is required, the HP of a pump is required as well as its
configuration if it includes a timer or Control Station.
Motor Contactor- The motor contactor is found within the motor starter box and acts like a relay
and upon the instruction of a control signal, will close and pass power to the motor of the pump.
Non-Chemical Water Treatment- The CHC technology uses apposing streams of water that are
forced together under high pressure at extreme speeds, as the two streams converge a vortex is
created. This vortex places the molecules within the water under extreme stress due largely to the
significant vacuum created. The point of intersection of the streams (vortex) exhibits a sudden
temperature change as well as pressure change. The temperature rise can exceed 5000
o
while a
vacuum is created at the center of the vortex. These extreme pressure and temperature changes can
rip apart the molecular bonds that are found in the majority of waters impurities. This technology
can be used to diminish bacteria growth as well as degas the Co2 from the water and promote the
