Water Treatment

SorbOx

SorbOx is a revolutionary yet simple and low maintenance water filter for any domestic hydronic heating system.

Kapitel Sorbox Water Treatment

All-round protection for heating water

  • Demineralisation of the heating water for initial filling or topping up. Reduces limescale deposits and sludge. This water treatment is now a requirement
  • Micro gas separator removes the oxygen and gases from the circulating water
  • Anode protection keeps the water constantly de-energised and ensures optimum heat transfer
  • Magnetic flow filter for the circulating water filters out sludge and corrosion particles

The problem

In days gone by, underfloor heating systems were often in-stalled using plastic pipes that were permeable to oxygen. By now, most manufacturers will produce underfloor heating pipes that are almost diffusion-proof. Nevertheless, valves, fittings, circulation pumps, con-trol units, automatic air vent valves and faulty expansion vessels represent major sources for possible oxygen ingress.

Oxygen diffused into the heating water, pH values that are too low and increased electrical conductivity of system water can result in corrosion and sludge deposits inside the heating system.

Sludge in underfloor heating system pipework resulting from corrosion products
Blocking of control valves and pumps
Perforations resulting in water damage
Corrosion perforations in boilers
Flow noise through corrosion-related gassing
Higher energy consumption through uneven heat distribution

The solution

Clean, safe heating water.

SorbOx Water Treatment Filter

No rust

The SorbOx filter separates rust and sludge from the water without becoming blocked. Rust and sludge particles are held back by means of a strong magnet on the underside of the filter and gravity. Close valves for cleaning. Then simply undo the filter and flush.

SorbOx Water Treatment

No gases

Insert the Elysator anode unit for degassing. The anode system removes corrosive and acidic gases through an electrochemical reaction using a sacrificial anode. Micro gas bubbles are separated, collected and removed through the venting network.

Elysator SorbOx Filter

No limescale

Use the Purotap cartridge for desalination. Within a few hours it absorbs all dissolved minerals in the circulating water. This prevents the formation of limescale deposits, which also reduces the corrosion rate.
