Abstract
An apparatus for the treatment of water which includes an elongated magnet having a multiplicity of longitudinally spaced poles enclosed in an inner casing of non-magnetic material, the latter being received within an outer casing of magnetic material and in radially spaced-apart relationship thereto. The apparatus is further provided with novel porting and the magnet, non-magnetic casing and outer casing are dimensioned and proportioned to provide improved fluid flow thereabout.
Claims20
In a device for the magnetic treatment of liquids comprising an elongated hollow outer casing made of a magnetic material, an elongated inner casing made of a non-magnetic material positioned within the outer casing and spaced therefrom to form an annular chamber therebetween, external inlet and outlet means for providing fluid flow from an external supply through the annular chamber, the improvement comprising:
- a single elongated magnet being received in said inner casing and aligned longitudinally, said magnet being magnetized along its longitudinal axis and consisting of at least two adjacent magnetic domains positioned along said longitudinal axis and extending transversely throughout said magnet and having opposing magnetic moments such that there exists at least three longitudinally spaced apart sections of alternating North and South polarity.
In a device for the magnetic treatment of liquids comprising an elongated hollow outer casing made of a magnetic material, a plurality of elongated inner casings made of a non-magnetic material positioned within the outer casing and spaced therefrom, external inlet and outlet means for providing fluid flow from an external supply through the space between said inner casings and said outer casing, the improvement comprising:
- a single elongated magnet being received in each of said inner casings, each said magnet being magnetized along its longitudinal axis and consisting of at least two adjacent magnetic domains positioned along said longitudinal axis and extending transversely throughout said magnet and having opposing magnetic moments such that there exist at least three longitudinally spaced apart sections of alternating North and South polarity.
In a device for the magnetic treatment of liquids comprising an elongated hollow outer casing made of a magnetic material, an elongated inner casing made of a non-magnetic material positioned within the outer casing and spaced therefrom to form an annular chamber therebetween, external inlet and outlet means for providing fluid flow from an external supply through the annular chamber, the improvement comprising:
- a single elongated magnet being received in said inner casing and aligned longitudinally, said magnet being magnetized along its longitudinal axis and consisting of three successive magnetic domains positioned along said longitudinal axis and extending throughout said magnet, adjacent said domains having opposing magnetic moments such that there exist at least four longitudinally spaced apart sections of alternating North and South polarity.
