Primary Applications
Residential and commercial applications wherever hard water is present (fuel lines, swamp coolers, commercial ice machines, fountains, printing equipment, commercial dishwashers).

For fuel systems the Model 400 should be placed 6" to 12" away from any high heat source such as the manifold or the exhaust system. And 12" away from diagnostic control centers (computer) and sensors. Sets can be mounted on the fuel line anywhere between the tank and the engine, On fuel injected engines, mount the sets on the line to the engine not the return line. When treating a semi-closed loop system line (ice machine, swamp cooler, dishwasher) install the Model 400 inside the equipment after the circulating pump.

Direction of Placement

The GMX label is placed over the north pole unit in each set. The direction the fluid flows through the tubing makes no difference.

For best results when placing the Model 400 to treat a particular area or appliance, place the sets at least 8" to 12" upstream (before) the area or appliance to be treated.

Do not place the Model 400 close to an electrical power line or electrical equipment capable of generating strong electrical fields, such as a welder or large electrical motor. This can reduce effectiveness.

For Maximum effectiveness, magnetic conditioning requires a smooth calm flow of fluid through the magnetic field. a partial reversal of treatment may be triggered by turbulence. Therefore always place the Model 400 a minimum of 8"to 12" downstream (after)any pump or other turbulence-causing device.

Non-Ferrous Pipes Only

Install the Model 400 only on a straight section of non-ferrous (PVC, rubber plastic, copper ,or stainless steel) pipe or tubing--not on steel or iron . Don't place it on any tubing to which the magnets stick. The penetration of a magnetic field through iron or steel (except for stainless steel) pipe is minimal, because the magnetic field travels along the exterior of such tubing preventing it from reaching the fluid. In such cases, replace a 12"section of steel tubing with non -ferrous tubing and then install the Model 400 on that section.

Stabilization Period

On water systems: for a few weeks after installing the Model 400 you may notice an increase in water turbidity (cloudiness) this is because scale is being removed from the system. During this stabilization period, carefully monitor filters, tanks, and sumps each week, and drain or clean them as needed.

On fuel systems: a temporary decrease in mileage and an increase in emissions may be noted after installing the Model 400. This is a temporary condition resulting from the removal of accumulated deposits from the fuel system and combustion chambers.
