DeltaWater Solutions - Magnetic Water Treatment Technology for the Mining Industry

DeltaWater Solutions is solving the mining industry's water quality problems, such as scale, salinity, iron and corrosion, with its range of magnetic water treatment technologies.

Based in the industrial hub of Newcastle, Delta has more than 20 years' experience in Australia and overseas. All of its products are designed and manufactured in Australia and are capable of treating unlimited volumes of water.

In mines across the globe, Delta's products are reducing costs and time, while improving the efficiency of machinery, pumps, and washing and screening equipment. Delta's solutions also increase the rate at which pipes can deliver water across mine sites, as well as maintaining mine camp equipment such as dishwashers.

Scale prevention for crushing machines, screening equipment, pumps and pipes

Delta's magnetic water treatment solutions are ideal for the mining industry. Boilers, heat exchangers and sterilisers are just a few examples of the applications our products can be used for on mine sites.

Magnetic water treatment technology treats the problems that high levels of minerals such as calcium, hardness and magnesium create on mine sites. Delta's products can:

• Stop scale build-up in pipelines (reducing friction loss and pumping costs)
• Prevent blockage of spray bars on belting systems
• Stop scale building on solenoid values (no more jamming or sticking)
• Stop scale building in pumps (no more pump failure)
• Prevent scale build-up in motor cooling jackets and cooling towers
• Stop scale building on screening and crushing equipment
• Improve dust suppression

Water treatment for minerals processing, mine camp kitchens and accommodation

The mining industry uses large volumes of water for mineral processing and washing, dust suppression, mine belt sprays, mining camp kitchens and accommodation, heating and cooling systems.

Delta magnetic water technology reduces the amount of maintenance needed on mining equipment, ultimately resulting in significant savings in time and money. The treatment also improves performance of systems involving heat exchange.

Magnetic water treatment technology

Delta uses the latest in magnetic water treatment technology to help tackle water quality problems.

There are four models of the Delta magnetic water conditioner. Each model is designed around the strength of the magnetic field focused in the water or the type of fluid being treated.

All four models achieve their desired magnetic field strength in the centre of the pipe that the conditioner has been fitted to, with the grade one model being the lowest strength version and grade four the highest.

Clamp-on magnetic water conditioners

Delta magnetic water conditioners can be supplemented with clamps. The clamp-on (CU) range is suitable for 12mm to 55mm pipes but is not designed for use with those made from non-magnetic based materials.

The clamps are easy to use and installation is as simple as placing the two halves of the product over the pipe and bolting it together. Delta's CU range can also be manufactured to fit 63mm metric poly piping.

Flanged magnetic water conditioners

Delta's flanged (SU) range is made on high-quality polythene (HDPE) pipe with slip-ring galvanised mild steel or stainless-steel flanges at either end. The flanged range of conditioners can be produced using either copper or stainless steel, depending on your preference.

Flanged conditioners can be fitted to pipe sizes from 75mm to 600mm. However, DELTA can also manufacture units for larger pipe sizes if requested.

A truly Australian mining industry supplier

Alex and Dianne Panov founded DeltaWater solutions in 1991. The company started life as a small business and quickly expanded. In 2004 the business moved into larger factory premises to cater for the increasing demand for its range of products.

Delta employs a team of marketing staff, has a busy workforce in its manufacturing department and an administration and finance division. The company works with a range of professional organisations to promote and deliver its product across Australia and around the world.
