THE MAICAT LIMESCALE PROTECTION DEVICES

The maicat® limescale protection devices work according to the principle of seed crystal formation. Lime dissolved in water can be crystallized naturally without the addition of salt or electricity.

OUR DEVICES

The protective effect of the maicat® granulate is achieved in the maicat® limescale protection device by the generation of microscopically small seed crystals, to which the hardness formers preferentially attach themselves when the lime-carbonic acid equilibrium is adjusted. The hardness formers remain in the drinking water, softening of the water with the maicat® limescale protection device almost does not take place. All components of the devices in our range meet the requirements of the new DIN EN 1988 – 200 (2012) and are suitable for use in drinking water installations.  They comply with the requirements of the Generally Recognized Codes of Practice.

Limescale protection devices can be used to effectively reduce stone formation in drinking water installations. In contrast to softening and dosing, this treatment method does not add substances to or remove ingredients from the drinking water. In practice, it is observed that the seed crystals formed by the maicat® limescale protection bind the old calcifications in a gentle process in the boundary layer and carry them along in the water. This makes it possible to renovate old installations and boilers over a period of 5 to 6 months. We constantly and promptly control our ongoing production of the maicat® active ingredient and the maicat® limescale protection devices on a random basis with the ongoing tests in accordance with W 512 and W 510.
