COMPARISON BETWEEN CHEMICAL DOSING &

WATER SOFTENER Vs DELTA DEVICE

S. No.

Factors of

Difference

Chemical Dosing

Water Softener

DELTA DEVICE A Scale Preventer

1.

Composition of Water

The Water becomes acidic thereby eating away Copper tubes and pipelines

Increases the corrosion of tubes and pipelines as water becomes acidic.

The water remains neutral only the physical properties changes.

2.

Recurring Cost

A recurring capital expenditure every year

Heavy monthly expenses in procurement, inventory, storage, handling and supervision of chemicals and salts to be dozed.

No Recurring Cost.

3.

Prevention of Scale

Removes deposited scale

Water softener is designed for a particular hardness level (max 600ppm)

Prevents scale formation and removes existing scales hardness level (upto 2000ppm)

4.

Maintenance

Requires daily maintenance and check of water quality.

Requires regular maintenance and supervision.

No maintenance required.

5.

Man Power

Requires extra manpower for monitoring and dosing of chemicals.

Special manpower required for regeneration of resin and operation.

No man power required as DELTA DEVICE - is an online equipment.

6.

Energy Consumption

Energy required for running chemicals in condenser tubes.

Needs electrical energy for operation.

No energy required for operation thus saves the electricity bills.

7.

Pollution

Causes water pollution.

Disposal of untreated Brine water is a major problem.

No pollution.

8.

Inventory

Extra space for storing chemicals.

Space for softener is required.

No space is require as it is installed online.

9.

Risk Factor

High risk of burn injury and accidents due to negligence as chemicals are hazardous in Nature.

NIL

No risk.

10.

Pay back

Adds on recurring cost per financial year.

NIL

Low payback period.
