Imagine that when cleaning a closed loop system, you could simply turn off the cleaner in the same way that you turn off a light switch. Imagine being able to do this regardless of traces of the cleaner still being present in the system or not, and that this would not lead to difficulties down the line.

For the Strengite Process, this is reality. No other cleaning system can offer this.

With the Strengite Process, once the system pH has risen above 7.0, our cleaners stop cleaning and come out of solution. This means that even if some of the cleaner is trapped in system sections and later released, the cleaner and the dissolved contaminants will simply come out of solution. Simple filtration removes the released contaminants. Strengite cleaner traces and the dissolved contaminants they carry will not adversely impact the inhibitor package used to protect the system.

For traditional chemical cleaners, sections of pipework that have trapped cleaner are notorious for causing problems even if only small amounts are left within the system. The cleaner traces and the contaminant load unbalances the corrosion inhibitor system, and this leads to problems. For this reason, experienced engineers who clean closed loops go to great lengths to ensure that cleaner traces are removed from all sections of the system.

There are some systems and situations where it is not possible to know ahead of time that all the cleaner can be removed at the end of the cleaning process. An example is large communal systems serving multiple dwellings where residents may close radiators during the clean and trap cleaning agents. The trapped cleaner and contaminants are later released back into the system after the flushing work has been done. There is no good solution for cleaning these systems using traditional chemical cleaners. There is only a balancing of the need to clean such systems verses the longer term issues created by cleaner traces and the released contaminants.

For such system, the Strengite Process, and its tolerance of cleaner traces, represents a real and useful way forward. For these systems, the clean up after the cleaning stage is done until the system water is clear of cleaner and contaminants. A side stream filter is then installed to capture future released cleaner and the contaminant load it dissolved. The released cleaner and contaminants are simply filtered out without impact on the system corrosion inhibitors. In this way, the Strengite Process offers a path to cleaning up many older systems that current cleaning methods would fail to clean without issues.

The Strengite Process is a much better solution for cleaning these systems.
