Kemper’s latest development in water hygiene – a flushing device that ensures regular movement of hot and cold potable water through a system to maintain safe temperatures – was launched earlier this year, but has already been installed in a number of UK facilities, and is proving ‘a huge success’.
The company said: “To ensure the proper functioning of a building’s water system, the designer must take into account maximum predicted usage, despite the fact that this usage level will rarely, if ever, be reached, during the installation’s lifetime. Stagnation, and build-up of harmful bacteria, can potentially occur in both the potable cold water (PWC) and potable hot water (PWH) supply.”
Kemper says its new KHS HS2 hygienic flushing box ‘helps restore hygienic conditions’ through a controlled ‘forced withdrawal’; water exchange can be controlled via time, temperature, and volume parameters. Variable flushing options can be selected for both PWC and PWH, and for both, through one box. As an independent flushing appliance, the HS2 hygienic flushing box can be configured and controlled through the HS2 ‘app’. Flushing records can then be read and forwarded via any Bluetooth-enabled device. Alternatively, the box can be linked to any BMS or KHS Master 2.0 ‘mini control system’.
Kemper added: “The HS2 was developed for use in any type of building. A variable flushing output of 4 litres / min, 10 l / min or 15 l / min ensures optimal flow for both small and large pipe dimensions.”
