Industrial Systems
We offer Industrial Systems for the following applications.
Boiler Applications
TI Series |
 |
Kinetico’s Industrial RO, the TI Series provides
an industrial-built membrane system with production capacities from
10 to 30 gpm. The unit can be specified with either an integrated circuit
controller, or a more sophisticated programmable logic controller.
All TI Series Systems include permeate flush for maximizing membrane
performance. |

 |
Water recycling packages are special industrial applications.
When a specifying these packages, a factory engineer’s consultation
is required. |
General Manufacturing |
 |
For large manufacturing complexes, an environmental
control department has responsibility for heating and cooling. In this
area, treated water is required for both boilers and cooling towers.
Throughout the facility, water treatment applications can be found
in laboratories, lunch rooms and showers. Treated water may also be
a requirement as part of the manufacturing process. |
Industrial Cleaning and Rinsing |
 |
Product cleaning is a part of most manufacturing processes.
For any cleaning process, a minimum of soft water is recommended to
optimize the use of cleaning chemicals. |
Plating and Coatings |
 |
With any plating or coating, quality water is a requirement for pretreatment, washing and rinsing. Softening, reverse osmosis and deionization technologies are all common within this type of application. |
Car Wash Applications
Wash Water |
Water is the most important part of any car wash system.
A highly efficient
water treatment system can add thousands of dollars to the bottom line
of a
typical operation. Without proper water treatment, equipment maintenance
time and shrinking profit are more the norm. Using treated, softened
water
for all primary wash functions will reduce the operating costs, through
lowered chemical and detergent costs. OEM auto wash manufacturers can
appreciation the advantages supplied by our Kinetico systems:
- Durability/Reliability
The unit uses water pressure to drive all of its internal processes.
This
provides outstanding durability as there are no electrical components
in
the system, which are subject to corrosion related to the typical
atmosphere of a auto wash installation.
- Efficiency
The trio features of duplex design, clean water regeneration and
counter-current regeneration, combine to provide regeneration
efficiencies will reduce salt and water usage by 50% compared to
similar softeners.
Final
Rinse
The final rinse for an car wash was typically handed through the
addition of wetting agents. These chemicals
were a costly component of the auto wash's operational costs. This
rinse stage now uses an RO system to
delivery low TDS water to produce the desired spot free effect. All
new autowash systems will include this
membrane technology as a core component of the wash system. Older
systems require upgrades and
operations modifications to move to the move efficient RO technology. |
