- Ensure there are no air pockets in the system
- Remove gas permeable parts and materials
- Ensure the expansion vessels are properly sized and the pre-charge pressure value in
order to guarantee positive pressure values, with respect to the ambient pressure,
throughout the circuits
- Use suitable chemicals (BIONIBAL- BIONIBAGEL) compatible with the materials used
and that can PREVENT CORROSION
During a unit installation or circuit service it’s important to consider a few points about the
supply water used, in order to guarantee the optimal system performance, energy saving
and prevention of problems.
For this reason it’s necessary to adopt some precautions in order to guarantee that
the wet surfaces and the heat exchanging paths of the unit remain clean thus
preventing the build up of scale, limes and other residues non compatible with the
water used in the circuits. The company in charge of the installation must therefore
use the appropriate solution to achieve the results expected, in compliance with the
technical specifications.
Our technical personnel, who will visit when the installation is fully completed to
arrange for its final commissioning and calibration, do not perform the role of
quality control or inspector of the installation or provide approval for the works
carried out. The systems compliance with current standards and legislation and
accordance with the consultant’s requirements remains the exclusive responsibility of the
installation company.
4.4 Corrosion prevention
BIONIBAL corrosion inhibitor for hot and cold water circuits resulting from a specific
research work and is ideal to protect you heating system circuits in four ways:
- FIRST LEVEL corrosion inhibition and block of rust build up.
- SECOND LEVEL acidic component that stops bacteria and algae growth, particularly
useful in under floor heating working at low temperature.
- THIRD LEVEL prevents the aggregation of suspended particles such as tartar, keeping
the surfaces clean (pumps, valves, heat meters, etc.).
- FOURTH LEVEL enables its traceability to monitor the dosage so to guarantee the
best protection level.
Electrolytic corrosion prevention, in a circuit employing different metals.
IT IS ADVISABLE to ADD the corrosion inhibitor BIONIBAL before the system is
put in function (except when different directives are given for boiler protection).
4.5 Bionibal dosage and use
NEW INSTALLATIONS:
Fill the circuit with water to check for leakage. Empty the circuit in order to discard
all sorts of residuals that could cause problems (if necessary clean it with
appropriate products and make sure that the circuit is well rinsed at the end).
Once the circuit is well cleaned, fill it with water again and add BIONIBAL
according to the dosage indicated.
EXISTING INSTALLATIONS:
Because BIONIBAL doesn’t dissolve existing limes and other residuals
accumulated over the years, proceed with empting the circuit and perform a
thorough cleaning process of it. Use accredited companies for this work.
Once the circuit is well cleaned, fill it with water again and add BIONIBAL
