Field Controls CW-HD-1 Testing for Hardness and Iron Levels, High Iron Concentration

Low frequency waveforms are emitted through two coiled wires attached to the outside of the water pipe. As a result of these waveforms, the two coils are constantly inducing a voltage into the water in the area of the ClearWave™. When one coil induces a positive voltage the other coil induces a counteracting negative voltage. This electric field causes the calcium or magnesium to remain in solution or suspension and the treated water continues to dissolve scale as it flows downstream. Over time, the ClearWave™ treated water helps solve hard water problems in the entire system, including pipes, water heaters, showerheads, and appliances. The ClearWave™ is the state-of-the-art in electronic water

conditioning. The ClearWave™ microprocessor-controlled technology continually varies its frequency, affecting the widest range of mineral concentrations and other variables that cause “hard water” problems.

The length of time required to alter the characteristics of the lime scale is dependent on the mineral makeup of the water being treated. The mineral makeup of the water can impact the operation of the ClearWave™’s electrical field. A high concentration of iron (soluble and insoluble) causes a disruption and weakening of the electrical field, reducing the effectiveness on scale reduction. Under these conditions an iron removal system is required to filter out the iron prior the ClearWave™. Additionally, if the water is excessively hard (greater than 25 grains), the ClearWave™ is often less effective.

TESTING FOR HARDNESS AND IRON LEVELS

High Iron Concentration

A high concentration of iron (soluble and insoluble) causes a disruption and weakening of the ClearWave™’s electrical field, reducing its effectiveness on scale reduction. Under these conditions an iron removal system is required to filter out the iron prior to the ClearWave™. We recommend an iron removal system for total iron levels above 0.3 ppm (parts per million). Contact your local health department or water authorities for testing your water

Water Hardness

On hardness levels above 250 ppm or 15 gpg, two ClearWave™ units should be mounted in series on the incoming water pipe. The maximum hardness level the ClearWave™ will effectively work on is 425 ppm or 25 gpg. Above these levels, the ClearWave™ should be used in conjunction with a tradition ion exchange water softener to remove hardness and condition the water. This allows you to minimize the salt used to remove the hardness and maintain the cost saving benefits of the ClearWave™ water-conditioning system.

CW-HD-1 specifications

The Field Controls CW-HD-1 is a cutting-edge air treatment product designed to enhance indoor air quality in residential and commercial settings. This high-efficiency device incorporates advanced technologies to deliver effective performance, making it an essential addition to modern HVAC systems.

One of the standout features of the CW-HD-1 is its compatibility with multiple HVAC systems, including central heating and cooling units, as well as standalone air handlers. This versatility allows it to be integrated seamlessly into existing systems, providing a boost in air quality without the need for extensive modifications.

The CW-HD-1 utilizes a two-stage filtration process that includes a HEPA filter and activated carbon filter. The HEPA filter captures 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns, effectively removing dust, pollen, pet dander, and other allergens from the air. The activated carbon filter plays a crucial role in eliminating odors and harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ensuring that the air is not only clean but also fresh-smelling.

In addition to its filtration capabilities, the CW-HD-1 features a built-in UV-C light, which further enhances its air purification abilities. The UV-C light helps to neutralize bacteria, viruses, and mold spores that may be present in the air, providing an additional layer of protection for occupants. This technology is particularly beneficial for environments where air quality is critical, such as healthcare facilities and homes with individuals who have respiratory issues.

The CW-HD-1 is designed with user convenience in mind. It includes an intuitive control panel that allows users to monitor filter status and airflow settings easily. Additionally, its compact design makes installation straightforward, requiring minimal space within the HVAC system.

Durability is another key characteristic of the CW-HD-1. Constructed from high-quality materials, it is designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use while maintaining optimal performance over time. Regular maintenance is also user-friendly, with filters that can be easily accessed and replaced when necessary.

Overall, the Field Controls CW-HD-1 is an innovative solution for improving indoor air quality. With its advanced filtration technologies, integrated UV-C light, and user-friendly design, it stands out as a reliable choice for anyone looking to enhance the air they breathe. By investing in a CW-HD-1, homeowners and businesses alike can ensure a healthier, safer indoor environment for their families and employees.
