MW Water Softener

Miura’s MW regeneration process comes with the added reliability of double tank alternation, our system-integrated Colormetry hardness detector, and a control panel that interfaces with Miura’s MOM and ER dashboard systems. When it comes to protecting your investment, and taking care of your boiler, soft water is absolutely critical.

Boiler tubes play a crucial role in the efficiency and operation of your system. One of the most common issues faced in boiler maintenance is the formation of hard scale on the surfaces of these tubes. This scale is primarily caused by calcium and magnesium present in the water used in the boiler.

Why is Scale a Concern?

Scale buildup is more than just an inconvenience; it can have serious impacts on your boiler’s performance. Here’s how even a thin layer of mineral scale can affect your operations:

• Reduced Efficiency: Even a buildup as thin as an eggshell (1/32”)  can reduce efficiency by 2–7%. This drop in performance can lead to higher operational costs.
• Increased Risk of Tube Failure: Scale increases the risk of overheating and tube failure, which can result in costly unscheduled downtime and disruptions to your operations.
• Higher Fuel and Maintenance Costs: The presence of scale can elevate both fuel consumption and maintenance requirements, impacting your overall budget and resource allocation.

Miura’s dual-tank water softener design enables you to provide soft water 24/7/365. The resin within the tanks periodically needs to go through a salt bath regeneration process. When this regeneration is taking place, the resin cannot soften the incoming water supply. With two water softening tanks, when one of the tanks is in regeneration the other tank is fully functional and still provides your system with processed water. This method ensures a constant flow of soft water to your boiler system.
