Water Disinfection Systems For Businesses

The board of health mandates water disinfection systems for businesses supplying potable well water to public systems greater than 25 people per day. Chemical disinfection using chlorine is generally considered the method of choice because it is reliable and practical. Flexcon's new Mix Master baffle tank is one of the most effective High Mixing Disinfection Systems currently available. Like the water that comes out of it, the choice is clear when it comes to Mix Master.

The Mix Master ensures uniform mixing and sufficient residence time to meet the CT (contact time) standard set by most health agencies in the United States. This remains true even when water is flowing continuously. With a 0.7 baffle factor, as tested by the Water Quality Association test labs, it also takes up less space because one tank does the work of 4 normal tanks.

Energy Savings For Fans And Pumps

The P-series by Franklin Controls is a variable frequency drive that is optimized for fans and pumps. It features an automatic energy saving mode that minimizes losses by optimizing flux control. Everyone knows variable frequency drives save you money by varying motor speed to match demand. Our automatic energy savings mode minimizes losses by optimizing the output power for higher efficiency. Under low load conditions, Sleep Mode deactivates the drive and its output – then awakens and reactivates output when demand rises to unlock additional savings. It also extends the life of the equipment

Features

• Space Vector control for efficiency and long motor life 
• Advanced PID control (Pre-PID and Dual PID) to maintain a constant control of pressure, flow or water level 
• Multi-motor control function 
• Automatic energy savings mode 
• Flying start protection prevents trips 
• Pre-heater function protects motor and inverter from damage when installed in damp location

Hot Water Temperature Maintenance

Large commercial buildings need a way to provide hot water at the tap in the most energy efficient way, without long waits or wasting water. Pentair Thermal Management has a sophisticated domestic hot water temperature maintenance (HWAT) system that provides immediate hot water at the tap that is a nice alternative to a recirculation system.

Whereas, a recirculation system:

• Requires that you keep the water heater temperature in the system at least five degrees above the maintain temperature to compensate for the heat that is lost in the recirculation loop. 
• Requires return lines, pumps, and balancing valves as part of the system. 

Pentair Thermal Management hot water temperature maintenance (HWAT) system provides a simple, reliable alternative to recirculation in commercial buildings. The HWAT system:

• Maintains the water at a uniform temperature along the entire length of the supply pipe. Thus, it is unnecessary to heat the water above the maintain temperature. 
• Includes HWAT heat trace cables that can be installed up to the fixture, which mean that you get hot water faster and waste less water.

HWAT is a fully integrated system that includes:

• Electric heat trace cables – the HWAT-Y2 and HWAT-R2 heat trace cables adjust their power output along the entire length of the pipe to compensate for variations in water temperature and ambient temperature. These cables are designed for installation on hot water supply pipes underneath standard pipe insulation. 
• Connection kits and accessories – items for making electrical connections and properly completing the installation, such as power connection and end seal kits. 
• Advanced control systems – electronic controllers that monitor and/or control the desired temperature maintenance of the pipes. 

The HWAT-ECO and ACCS-30 electronic temperature controllers optimize the energy efficiency of the HWAT system by controlling the pipe temperature with either HWAT heat trace cable. The temperature set point can be programmed on a 24/7 schedule to suit the specific job requirements, providing the maximum water temperature control and energy savings to the end user.

The Benefits Of Geothermal

Geothermal technology harnesses the Earth’s renewable thermal energy stored just below the surface or in large bodies of water for the purposes of providing forced air heating and cooling, hot and chilled water and dehumidification. The system exchanges the natural heating and cooling properties of the Earth between a building and the ground. This transfer of energy is the source of enhanced performance and environmental superiority as Geothermal systems employ a small amount of electrical energy to capture, move and concentrate a large amount of “free energy” provided by the Earth. The result is the utmost in space conditioning.

Ground source heat pumps are the most commonly applied geothermal system today for both residential and commercial applications. They take the natural heating and cooling properties of the Earth to create "free energy" for a given space. The beautiful thing for end users is that only a small amount of electrical energy is needed to capture, move and concentrate this energy.

Heat-Gard Non-Electric Radiator Thermostats Keep a Heating System Comfort Balanced

Non-electric thermostats have been successfully used throughout the world for years. They're proven to be the most simple, reliable way to prevent energy waste and reduce heating costs. At the same time, they ensure individual room comfort. They sense changes in temperature and automatically increase the flow of heat in response to a temperature drop or automatically decrease it in response to temperature rise.

Short Payback Time
Because Heat-Gard is non-electric, it is relatively inexpensive to install and operate. A low cost Heat-Gard on every radiator is the most reliable way to update an old heat guzzling system economically.

Easy To Service
The Heat-Gard valve is made so the complete cartridge can be replaced without draining the system, by use of a special inline cartridge changer. This is a great advantage for hospitals, schools and nursing homes where disruptions of a heating system can be tremendous problems. For large public building and schools, there is even a vandal resistant Heat-Gard to prevent unwarranted tampering with the heat settings.

Backed By Taco's Hydronic Experience
As with all Taco products, Heat-Gard is pretested at the factory before it ships. Their exacting quality standards have given all their products a reputation for dependability and top performance.

Join The Future With Watts TRITON Pipe Fusion

The revolutionary TRITON system is the first application of radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic technology, a trusted method of welding used in industrial applications, for plastic piping.

This new welding technique has many advantages over conventional pipe joining processes:

• TRITON enables pipe joining and pressure testing in minutes (instead of hours) 
• TRITON welds can be completed by one person, reducing required manpower 
• TRITON creates a safer work environment—no exposed heating elements, no adhesives with VOCs, no exposed flame 
• TRITON outside diameter welds offer unobstructed flow and decreased pressure drop, reducing overall system cost 
• TRITON is ready to use in minutes—no waiting for exposed heating elements to heat up 
• TRITON uses less energy than conventional pipe joining technology

The TRITON Pipe Fusion system includes three components: a Control Unit, Fusers, and Fittings. (Both Fusers and Fittings are sold separately). The TRITON components are designed to work together to create lasting hermetic welds in minutes without the use of adhesives, open flame, or heating elements.

The TRITON Series TRCU-M1 Control Unit is designed to operate on a standard 110/120 VAC circuit. The Control Unit converts the AC power to DC power, and then generates a radio frequency (RF) signal. The RF signal is transferred to the Series TRFWP1 Fuser to complete the welding process.

The self-contained and self-calibrating Control Unit comes with a 10’ long GFCI-protected power cord and a 20’ long coaxial Fuser cable. The power draw for each weld is less than 100 watts. (Only Watts supplied cords should be used with the TRITON Control Unit).


The TRITON Series TRFWP1 Fusers are designed to concentrate a radio frequency (RF) signal and direct it onto a TRITON Fitting. This in turn generates heat which fuses the Fitting and pipe together.

The TRITON TRFWP1 Fusers are currently available in five sizes (to standard ASTM D3035)

TRITON Fittings are uniquely engineered: 

• Unique design increases strength & rigidity 
• Lightweight form factor 
• Full range of sizes and configurations
