Anti-Scale Media

Hatco Systems offers Filtersorb SP3, an Anti-Scale Media. The principal behind this nano soft flow, saltless anti-scale media is quite simple. The Filtersorb SP3 acts as a dosing catalyst by accelerating the transformation of the calcium and magnesium minerals into harmless "nano" particles. When the inlet water goes into the water conditioner tank, the up flow pulls the water through the fluidised Filtersorb SP3 media which then acts as a dosing catalyst and pulls the hardness minerals of calcium acid magnesium out of the solution and then transforms these minerals into inactive nano crystal particles. Because the hardness minerals have been transformed into nano particles, these nanoscopic particles make their way through plumbing systems without attaching on to pipes, fixtures, valves, or heating elements. An important secondary benefit is that the existing scale in pipes and equipment is also dissolved over time. The manganese and calcium already built up on the walls of pipes and equipment will slowly dissolve and in just a few short weeks mineral build up will be eliminated. Filtersorb SP3 working mechanism: it works as scale prevention media that targets only temporary water hardness (bicarbonates only) which is the major cause of scaling. SP3 doesn’t function against permanent hardness (sulfates, chlorides, silicates, phosphates etc); SP3 is an alternative for ion-exchange resins but not an ion-exchange resin itself; and SP3 does not exchange any ions in the feed water. Scale prevention fundamental: SP3’s sole function is to neutralise the bicarbonate water hardness by converting the calcium and magnesium bicarbonates into Nano crystals (of calcium of magnesium carbonates) that doesn’t form any scale.
