HOW IT WORKS
ENGINE FLUSHING TECHNICAL CONCEPT
The patented technology uses a
scientifically sophisticated yet practical feedback responsive control and
metering system to flush salt and
minerals from the internal components of marine engines more effectively and
conveniently than any conventional
method. The system uses an extremely effective multi-point injection
strategy, and a technology known as Proportionally Directed Overfill Back
Flush TM
to achieve incomparable results,
which through ease of use facilitates the flushing operation. The Guardian
unit receives water through a quick disconnect fitting on a regular garden
hose, is injected into the engine on each side of the thermostat's through
fittings installed on the engine replacing plugs that are already in the
engine or by tapping into hoses normally installed on the engines.
The engine is not run during Guardian
flushing.
Due to the high
capacity of the modern marine engine pumping systems,
engine cavity and exhaust components are not completely filled with
water using convention flushing systems, leaving the upper reaches of these
subsystems dry , which causes much higher than normal internal temperatures.
The casting marks, seams, transitional areas of uneven thickness, and any 90
degree or greater bend in the coolant flow channels in modern marine engines
are all attractors for salt build-up, which seems to proceed in a roughly
geometrical progression once started. When salt build-up occurs, it
effectively creates an isolation boundary layer that blocks the dissipation
or radiation of heat.
When this happens,
hot spots occur which cause thermal stress, and or shock which rapidly lead
to failure. It has been
determined that up to 90% of impeller wear (on systems using centrifugal
style neoprene based impellers)
occurs during engine flushing. The
Guardian Systems overcome these and other problems due to the following
combination of events:
2. The metering components
of the Guardian system constantly adjusts the output levels at each
injection point, ensuring continuous pressure and volume levels in all the
engine subsystems (water transfer systems, heat exchange systems, raw
water pumps, circulating pumps, engine block and heads, and manifold
systems).
3. The Guardian system
creates hydrostatic shock waves that are sent through the engine cooling
systems and subsystems between 75-185 pulses per minute, depending upon the
application.
This
hydrostatic shock pulse reaches every cavity of the engine,
breaking salt and minerals loose and flushing them out of the engine.
The engine is completely flushed after 4 to 6 minutes.
A unique Chemical Treatment comprised of a
self-pressurized container, allows the introduction of a chemical line that
includes a rust prohibitive which coats the internal components of the
engine for added protection and longevity; a salt dissolving/zebra muscle
additive that removes marine life from internal components; and an
anti-freeze mixture for lay-up or storage of marine engines.
Each of these have been specifically manufactured for our flushing
system to provide extra protection to any engine. All chemicals used with
the Guardian System are EPA approved. When used properly the Guardian
enhances the operational readiness and reliability and significantly reduce
man hours required for maintenance and greatly extend the operational life
of marine power plants in all marine environments.
