Has the installation location been chosen with respect to these factors?
Time Factor (water in tanks max. 48 h)
Heat Factor (Temperature peaks on heating element surfaces should not exceed ~203°F)
Distance Factor (max. 2 km / 1.24 mile pipeline length)
Are there unusual high levels of certain substances in the water? If yes, have they ben taken care of?
Example: Iron (Fe) and other metals: The content of iron and other metals in the water should not exceed 1 mg/l (1 ppm).
Other metals, for example: copper(Cu), aluminum(Al), lead(Pb), nickel(Ni), Zinc(Zn) can affect the Vulcan treatment.
Mn: The manganese level should not exceed 0.1 mg/l (0.1 ppm)
Have filter and pumps locations of been taken into consideration?
As a general rule it is better to install Vulcan after a pump and after a filter, if the setting in your installation area allows it.
Filters: Crude filters (> 50 μ) do not remove the mono-crystals and can be ignored. For more sensitive filters ( < 50 μ). it is recommended to install Vulcan after the filter.
Pumps: If possible, we advise installing Vulcan after any pumps.
WHY? : Pumps with internal plastic wheels may create an electrical field that may affect the electronic impulse results of the descaler. Pumps with internal metal wheels may also cause an effect on the altered hard water molecules. If you know your pump does NOT create a very strong electrical field then install the Vulcan device before the pump on your main water line. If you are uncertain install after your main water pump.
Have you checked for strong electricity, magnetic fields or electro-motors?
Please make sure that there are no strong electric lines running close to the installation area. High voltage electric lines or strong magnetic fields may interfere with the Vulcan impulse-field. Please install Vulcan approximately 1 ½ to 3 feet away from these fields.
Are paint or cover materials on the pipe taken care of?
Thin coatings such as pipe protection (e.g. corrosion protection paint) are suitable to place the impulse-bands directly on top.
Insulation material or other thicker protective layers should be dismantled and can be re-installed over the impulse bands after installation.
Is the pipe surface temperature suitable?
The pipe’s outside temperature should not exceed ~ 149° F. Above this may harm the isolation of the copper impulse bands.

Royalton Punta Cana Resort & Casino
A 1,000 room resort located on the beachfront in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Two Vulcan S500 were installed on the main input pipe in order to combat scale build up and increase efficiency of the three cooling towers. A Vulcan S100 is also installed on the resorts main hot water system, in order to remove and prevent scale build up in the heaters/boilers, which provide hot water throughout the entire resort and casino.
Vulcan electronic impulse technology removes scale from heating stations
This installation was a government project and before the Vulcan descalers were installed it took a great deal of effort and expense to clean the heat exchangers. The Vulcan system has already proven its effectiveness since it has greatly prolonged the cleaning intervals. This government contract has reported they are very satisfied with the results.
Water Supply for the Area of Anoia
We installed several Vulcan units just before the water meters, which were always filled with calcium and often become clogged. Because of these problems, we would have to change them frequently.
{tab=Installation}
The Vulcan Electronic Descaler is a Do-It-Yourself installation. Once installed it does not require maintenance.
Installation Notes:
For optimal water treatment it is best to install the Vulcan Descaler near the water meter or at the main water supply.
It can be installed vertically, horizontally or at any other angle. If there is no space available on the pipe the device can also be wall-mounted.
The impulse bands can be wound awound a pipe on the left side, on the right side or underneath the electronic device. In the event of limited space; the windings can be placed partly on the main pipe and partly on the distributor pipe; the treatment impulses extend over several meters to either side of the pipes. Temperature peaks on heating element surfaces should not exceed ~203°F .
Leave a safe distance of at least ½ inch between the bands. Do not remove the end caps or the impulse band insulation. Do not cut the impulse bands or the 24 V power cord of the power supply unit.
Use the provided electronic switching adaptor only. Protect the electronic unit and the power supply against direct water. Only specific Vulcan units (produced on demand) can run under water. ONLY use water to clean the Vulcan device.
The operating temperature of Vulcan ranges from -13°F to 122°F.

Installation Steps:
1. Put the two cable clips through the holes at the bottom of the electronic device and then place it on the pipe. Using the cable clips, latch the device onto the pipe.
2. Connect one of the impulse bands to the device and use another cable clip to latch it to the pipe.
3. Wind the impulse bands around the pipe producing a coil. Make sure you wind the band tightly to the pipe and place the impluse bands close to each other.
4. Latch the end of the impulse band to the pipe using another cable clip. Now repeat the procedure with the second impulse band.
5. First, plug the connector into the upper right in-jack of the device and then plug the power supply unit into an electrical outlet.
6. The red pilot lights will illuminate as soon as it starts to operate. Your hard water descaler is NOW operational and will continue to work; maintenance-free.
