COLLOID-A-TRON
Non Chemical Catalytic Scale Prevention Units
AST Clean Water Technologies a leading Israeli company specializing in smart water treatment solutions presents Fluid Dynamics international Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers.
Fluid Dynamics international a UK / Ireland based company with more than 30 years experience and proven successful record in manufacturing and worldwide sales of catalytic scale preventers.
All Fluid Dynamics Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers are patented, certified and approved by the UK water authorities.
Colloid-A-Tron, gives protection from scale without the use of any chemical dosing.
Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers require no electricity and are maintenance free.
The Colloid-A-Tron scale preventer units are used worldwide in industrial, commercial and domestic applications protecting pipe work and equipment
The Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers often will remove existing scale deposits.
Established Since 1973, Fluid Dynamics the world’s oldest catalytic water treatment company, offers unrivalled experience in the supply of scale prevention equipment without the use of chemicals.
The Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers are operating in more than 26 countries our track record speaks for itself:
Over 250,000 units installed Worldwide.
Our client base includes companies such as:
Guinness | Carlsberg | Nestle | Ford Motor Company | Coca-Cola | Rhone Poulec
UK Royal Air Force | Kellogg’s | Akzo Nobel | Renault | Pirelli
And many more who have literally saved thousands of pounds/dollars since introducing Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers.
The Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers core is a mixture of precious metals that create an electrolytic current through the water, nothing is added or taken away from the water during treatment Colloid-A-Tron anti-scaling operation is performed while water is flowing on the surface of the very special alloy used in the unit. The required turbulence, pressure changes are caused by the special design of the unit.
The Colloid-A-Tron scale preventer operates as a catalyst using the Ph rise generated by the alloy to trigger precipitation of calcium carbonate in the bulk of the water in the form of stable aragonite crystals.
Existing scaling is also dissolved and previously deposited scale can be cleared over a period of time.
Benefits of installing Colloid-A-Trons
Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers are environmentally friendly – NO chemicals and salt are required.
Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers do not use power: CATs work under an electrolytic action which is effected utilising the principle of different metals in the galvanic series generating electricity between the phases in a manner similar to a battery.
Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers' advantage becomes evident when scale prevention is required in remote locations where delivery of power and chemicals and labor makes conventional water softening un-practical and extremely expensive.
Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers are maintenance free.
Water treated by Colloid-A-Tron scale preventers is safe to drink and harmless to plant life, CATs are WRAS certified as safe to use in domestic supplies.
