The 3 Vulcan effects
1. V
ulcan prevents scaling in pipes and 1st Vulcan effect
appliances
Vulcan modifies the structure of the
calcium crystals
Without the Vulcan water treatment, scale particles in the water form
sticky crystals that then build solid deposits. The Vulcan-Impulse-
Technology modifies the crystallization of calcium and magnesium using
the natural process of electrophoresis. The crystals become smoother
and rod-shaped and can no longer attach to each other. The more
rod-shaped crystals that are created, the stronger the positive effect without Vulcan with Vulcan
of scale-prevention. Scale is now washed away in the water as a fine
powder.
2. Vulcan gently sanitizes the piping system
The Vulcan water treatment changes the balance between the scaling
process and natural resolving process. Mono-crystals can no longer 2nd Vulcan effect
form deposits, therefore the scale build-up process is reduced. The
natural scale resolving process now needs only to deal with existing Vulcan reduces scale deposits in the
deposits and can effectively combat them. Thus scale is removed faster piping system
than it forms. The natural surplus of carbonic acid dissolves the scale
from the scale. Gradually and carefully, the deposits in the pipes are
cleaned out.

Vulcan produces a protective metal-
carbonate layer
Copper and/or iron oxidation occurs in all metal pipes through contact
with hard water. These oxides seriously affect the pipe surfaces and
often lead to corrosion.
The Vulcan-Impulse-Technology generates an electrophoresis-effect
which produces a protective metal-carbonate layer. According to the
without Vulcan with Vulcan
material of the pipe, this layer consists of copper carbonate, iron
carbonate or zinc carbonate and settles on all shiny metal surfaces.
It protects the pipe from harmful substances which could lead to
corrosion.

18Installation Examples
Vulcan
1. For optimal water treatment Vulcan is best installed near the water
meter or at the main water supply.
2. The impulse band windings can be placed on the left side, on
the right side or underneath the electronic device. Leave a safe

distance of at least ½" (1 cm) between the bands.
3. Vulcan can be installed vertically, horizontally or at any other min 1/2"
angle. If there is no space available on the pipe the electronic
Vulcan
block can also be wall-mounted.
4. In case of limited space the windings can be placed partly on the
main pipe and partly on the distributor pipe.
All these different installations are possible because the treatment

impulses extend over several meters to either side of the pipes.
Installation Notes
1. Protect the electronic unit and the power supply against direct water. Only specific
Vulcan units (produced on demand) can run under water.
2. Use the provided electronic switching adaptor only.
3. Do not cut the impulse bands nor the 36 V power cord of the power supply unit.
4. Do not remove the end caps or the impulse band insulation.
5. The operating temperature of Vulcan ranges from -13°F to 122°F (–25°C to +50°C).
6. Clean the device with water only.
7. Temperature peaks on heating element surfaces should
not exceed ~203°F (~95°C).
