Plasma Electrolysis by IronHead

Try it ,but I used a brass radiator and a copper coil you see on the old one I just posted.
On the brass radiator I used an aluminum 90* elbow and it etched away in about 20 hours of on time. Now this could have been from electrolisis and maybe a zinc plate would have solved this problem but I am not sure as I just did away with the part and put an SS fitting on there.

Al I know is it did not work out  and I hate to see someone destroy a nice aluminum rad.
So I think I would do some test before using it.

OK so I checked the rad last night and the fins are aluminum but the pipes are brass. So I think I am good...My ss screens should be here today, if not today tuesday...

Gonna fire up the neg rod unit later tonite.  Those look like 2" pipes, no?    Mebbe a larger diameter would bear the heat easier, not melting?

The only graco strainer I found (pic later) has plastic all thru it; guess I'll run it till it melts <grin>

Problem was PVC  melts pretty low temps but I got the info needed from these test to move on to Stainless Steel. She is all tucked up under the Motorhome  and ready for winter.
Full floor radiant heat system was evolved from those few pipes you see. The floor system is also a Heatpipe"  system and work very nicely .  That PVC pipe job you could look at like a temporary working model.

Now is that ss screen for the pump or for the gun...it makes a difference, I had this poor bugger on the phone for 20 mins, giving him IronHeads description and had him running back and forth...lol...I had no model number or anything to go by...it was too funny...had ta say sorry a couple of times...
