| HydroMinder - details |
 |
| Keep any reservoir filled with consistently mixed solution without pouring, stirring, waiting, or downtime. When the solution level in a reservoir drops, the HydroMinder's float opens a non-electric, magnetic valve. The flow of water siphons liquid concentrate into the water stream,automatically maintaining the level of ready-to-use solution. (Models are available for maintaining a tank of plain water, too.) When the tank reaches the preset fill level, the HydroMinder shuts off. This mechanism has been working in the field for over 20
years. That's why HydroMinders have become the industry standard for liquid level maintenance. |
| Saves time & money, enhances safety & performance |
Because the HydroMinder eliminates the need for manually
handling, measuring and mixing concentrated chemicals, it saves labor time. It's also more accurate than manual mixing, so it reduces costly rework that can result from solutions that are too strong or too weak. Products which are properly diluted work better, too. The automatic mixing of concentrated products with water enhances safety by minimizing employee exposure to the concentrated products. HydroMinders are made of highly durable materials for maximum life and serviceability, so maintenance time required is kept to a minimum. |
| Environmentally friendly |
| HydroMinders allow easy use of concentrated products. Concentrated products last longer than an equal amount of ready-to-use products, so concentrates reduce solid waste packaging that must be thrown away. Accidental spills are less likely since employees handle the concentrate containers less. Electricity is conserved because HydroMinders are operated by water flow only. |
| Useful in a variety of applications |
There are many situations that call for solutions to be held at the ready for use on demand. Here are just a few:
- automatic or self-serve vehicle washing systems
- central cleaning systems
- water treatment systems
- conveyor lubricating systems
- spraying systems
- high pressure cleaning systems
- metal finishing systems
- machine tool cooling systems
- OEM cleaning systems
- parts washing machines
- high volume pumping systems.
