Iron oxide sludge is one of the main causes of boiler failure. MagnaClean filters extend the life of
hydronic heating systems when used as part of ADEY’s Best Practice™ system process.
ADEY is the industry leader in hydronic heating system protection. Our unique cleaning products
are designed to clean and protect your hydronic heating system, ensuring it achieves maximum
performance season after season.
An effective solution for commercial systems
Keeping a commercial or industrial hydronic heating system operating
at peak performance is absolutely crucial. Customer expectations,
operating budgets and client comfort are all at stake.
That’s why it’s vital to protect against a danger already lurking inside
nearly every hydronic heating and cooling system – magnetite,
commonly known as black iron oxide. An unavoidable result of
oxidation inside untreated systems, black iron oxide forms on the
surface of pipes and components where it deposits into the system
water as microscopic particles, which combine to form a black sludge.
Even in small quantities, these particles can potentially cause expensive
damage to plate heat exchangers, heat interface units, pumps, and
valves. Within cooling systems, chillers are equally vulnerable to
damaging iron oxide.
As sludge accumulates, system efficiency begins to suffer, and the
following symptoms may begin to occur:
• Poor system circulation
• Excessive system noise
• Blocked system pipes and radiators
• Increased operating costs
• Frequent breakdowns and costly repairs
MagnaClean Commercial helps prevent
the damage, and related symptoms,
that can be caused by iron oxide
sludge. It features a unique, patented
magnetic filtration system that starts
to work from the moment it’s installed,
removing virtually all of the suspended
iron oxide that collects in hydronic
heating systems.
The filter forces system water to pass
through the central magnetic core,
where iron oxide is drawn out by
powerful magnetic rods.
The rods can be removed individually
for greater ease when servicing.
The only moving part in the ingenious design of the MagnaClean Commercial is the water flowing through it.
The magnetic field generated by the internal rods does all the work, without the need of motors or other
failure-prone parts.
Circulator pumps and other components can become coated in iron
oxide inside an untreated hydronic heating system.
Computer simulation of the interior of the MagnaClean Commercial filter shows how five powerful magnets
capture iron oxide sludge out of the water.
