FERNOX BOILER BUDDY
Designed to complement Fernox's extensive range of chemical water treatment
products, the Boiler Buddy is a premium quality in-line, high efficiency magnetic
filter with patented flux plates developed for use in Formula 1 motor racing.
Unlike other conventional or magnetic filters, Boiler Buddy not only traps magnetite
to sub-micron levels, it does so without restricting the water flow, even when full.
Boiler Buddy also offers a unique opportunity for condition monitoring of the system.
Its transparent housing enables the build-up of debris to be observed; acting as an early
warning sign of inherent problems which might result in pumps or valves seizing and
ultimate system failure.
Application
The Boiler Buddy can be connected directly to 22 mm
copper pipework using conventional pump connectors
(it is also compatible with 15 mm with the appropriate
adapter. It is not recommended for 28 mm systems,
as it will restrict the water flow) Boiler Buddy can be
installed vertically or horizontally. The unit is designed
to slot into the space provided after removing a
circulator pump when fitting a condensing boiler into
an existing system (ideally it should be fitted on the
return close to the boiler itself.) The off-set inlet and
outlet ports enable Boiler Buddy to be fitted flush
against a wall in existing pipework. System cleaning
can be undertaken when a Boiler Buddy is installed
by simply isolating and removing the unit at the
connection points and powerflushing across
the connections.
