Say goodbye to mineral deposits in your water systems with Polyphosphate Antiscalant Balls! These economical and effective balls prevent scaling, saving you money on maintenance costs and increasing the lifespan of your systems. Order now and improve the efficiency of your operations.
Typically, antiscalant balls, Siliphos, or polyphosphate balls can be suspended in a bottle with holes to reduce scaling. However, to ensure effectiveness and safety, the following considerations should be taken into account:
Proper Dissolution Rate
Siliphos and polyphosphate balls are designed to dissolve slowly over time. By suspending the balls in a bottle with holes, water will flow through the bottle and gradually dissolve the polyphosphates. This method effectively releases the antiscalant into the water continuously.
Ensure that the holes in the bottle are large enough to allow sufficient water flow, but not so large that the balls dissolve too quickly or leak out.
Water Flow and Contact Time
For the antiscalant balls to work effectively, they need to be in contact with the water for an extended period. The water flowing through the holes in the bottle should be continuously moving and should have enough time to absorb the polyphosphates. If the tank water is not replenished regularly or if the water flow is too fast, the effectiveness of the antiscalant may be compromised.
Make sure the balls are not in direct contact with stagnant water surfaces, as this could reduce their ability to release polyphosphates evenly into the water.
Maintenance and Monitoring
Over time, the balls will dissolve and need to be replaced. Regularly check the bottle to ensure the polyphosphate balls are still in good condition and that water can flow freely through the bottle.
If the balls dissolve too quickly or if the tank water has high hardness, you may need to use more balls or adjust their placement for better performance.
Tank Size and Water Usage
The effectiveness of polyphosphate balls depends on the amount of water being treated. For larger overhead tanks or high water usage, more polyphosphate balls may be required to achieve optimal results. Make sure to calculate the appropriate dosage based on tank size and water hardness.
Safety and Water Quality
Polyphosphate balls and Siliphos are generally safe for use in drinking water and in household water systems. However, always verify that the material used in the balls is food-grade and complies with relevant standards for drinking water treatment (e.g., NSF certification).
