Highlights
  • Polyphosphates extend the life of appliances that use hot water by inhibiting scale build-up in water heaters (both standard and tank-less styles) and in appliances such as dishwashers and clothes washers
  • Binds hardness-causing minerals such as calcium and magnesium to prevent them solidifying
  • Scale inhibition forms a thin protective layer that protects piping from corrosion
  • Easy cartridge change-out for fast system maintenance
  • ¾” NPT inlet/outlet connections
  • 316 stainless steel head for ‘sweat-in-place’ installation and corrosion resistance
  • FDA CFR-21 compliant materials

We designed the 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ Scale Inhibition Systems dose water with polyphosphates in small concentrations of 2-3 ppm, in order to bind hardness-causing minerals such as calcium and magnesium. Our system provides unrestricted flow of up to 37.9 lpm with ¾” NPT inlet/outlet connections. It’s easy to install and has quick change-out cartridges.

The 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ Scale Inhibition Systems for reduce scale build-up on hot water-using appliances such as standard and tank-less water heaters, clothes washers and dishwashing machines with 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ Scale Inhibition Systems. It’s ideal for keeping plumbing fixtures such as taps, pipes and shower heads working to full capacity, and the system extends the life of downstream water-using appliances by reducing scale build-up and corrosion. The overall design of our scale inhibition system makes the installation and cartridge change-out easy for professionals, and can be installed on the cold-water supply line of the water heater or at the water entry point of the home. The system uses polyphosphates in small concentrations of 2-3 ppm, effectively preventing scale build-up by binding hardness-causing minerals such as calcium and magnesium to prevent them from solidifying on metallic surfaces. The polyphosphates also prevent corrosion by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface. Water contact surfaces are FDA CFR-21 compliant for food and beverage contact applications. Features include: Flow rates up to 37.9 lpm. ¾” NPT inlet/outlet connections. 316 stainless steel head for ‘sweat-in-place’ installation and corrosion resistance. 25 – 125 psi/172 – 862 kPa/1.7 – 8.6 Bar pressure range. 40 – 100 °F/4.4 – 37.8 °C temperature range.

Suggested applications
  • Use to reduce scale build-up on hot water-using appliances such as water heaters (standard and tank-less), clothes washers and dishwashing machines, and on plumbing fixtures like taps, pipes, and shower heads
