Verification of NMR Pipe Protector Effect at Yokohama City Waterworks Bureau Part 1

NMR Pipe Protector, a piping rehabilitation device that prevents leaks by preventing red rust in the chilled and hot water piping of cultural centers, libraries, and art museums, reducing maintenance costs to less than one-tenth.

Art museums, museums, cultural centers, libraries, and other places frequently visited by the general public and tourists use energy-efficient warm-type central air conditioning. The chilled water piping for this air conditioning is made of galvanized steel pipes (SGP pipes), which, after more than 20 years of construction, experience deterioration due to red rust. When the threads at the pipe joint deteriorate and fall off due to red rust, leaks can occur from these weakened areas during earthquakes or other events. Additionally, deterioration from red rust inside the pipes can lead to problems such as reduced heating and cooling efficiency and early failure of the heat source equipment. The solution to this issue of red rust deterioration inside the pipes is the pipe rehabilitation device NMR Pipe Protector.

NMR Pipe Protector extends the lifespan of hospital water supply pipes and air conditioning chilled and hot water pipes affected by red rust deterioration for over 40 years at one-tenth the cost of pipe replacement.

Water supply pipes and chilled/hot water piping generally require replacement due to aging deterioration. In hospitals with over 25 years of operation, the chilled/hot water piping can experience red rust deterioration, leading to red rust blockage. At the same time, this red rust can flow into copper fan coils, causing blockages and reducing heating and cooling efficiency. Additionally, the red rust can accumulate within the heat source equipment, shortening its lifespan. In the water supply pipes, red rust can develop at the joints, and as the red rust deterioration progresses within both pipes, the threads at the joints can break off, leading to leaks during strong earthquakes. The NMR Pipe Protector prevents red rust deterioration, transforms red rust into black rust to improve pipe strength, and extends the lifespan of the piping. Since the chilled/hot water system is centralized, if piping replacement is carried out, the hospital must halt operations for more than six months, and the replacement costs can reach hundreds of millions to over a billion yen. The damages caused by operational downtime are also significant, leading to a demand for technology that can extend the lifespan of the air conditioning piping without replacement. The NMR Pipe Protector, a device for preventing red rust within pipes, has made this possible at less than one-tenth the cost.

The rust prevention effect of the NMR pipe protector is due to the action of small clusters of water, which has also been proven to promote the growth of tomatoes and strawberries.

The pipe rust prevention device "NMR Pipe Protector" was featured on TV Tokyo's economic information program "World Business Satellite (WBS)." The rust prevention effect of the water from the NMR Pipe Protector has small clusters, which promotes the growth of vegetables, leading to verification in the agricultural field. At "Mitsu Village" in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture, NMR Pipe Protectors are installed in the pipes that supply water to the greenhouses. In the program, the weight of tomatoes grown with regular water was compared to those grown with water from the supply pipe equipped with the NMR Pipe Protector, and on average, the latter tomatoes were 16 grams larger. From previous verifications, it has been found that growing tomatoes with water from the supply pipe equipped with the NMR Pipe Protector increases the yield by approximately 7 percent. In this way, the NMR Pipe Protector is expected to leverage its ability to change the properties of water and expand into various fields. *You can download the materials for free. *Please feel free to contact us first.

For piping that has been in use for 20 years, we recommend a free diagnosis! Based on diagnostic results from images and data, we will propose the best methods for cost reduction and extending the life of the piping.

Do you know of any ways to reduce the management costs of piping and further extend the lifespan of older pipes? By reconsidering the replacement of old pipes (pipe renewal) and traditional pipe rehabilitation, significant cost reductions can be achieved. Additionally, the typical lifespan of pipes, which is around 20 years, can be extended to 40 to 50 years, equivalent to the lifespan of the building. At Japan System Planning, we offer a free diagnosis of red rust deterioration inside pipes. If the diagnosis indicates that cost reduction is not possible, we will not make any proposals. We will conduct a diagnosis to help you continue using old pipes for as long as possible and at a low cost. Please feel free to contact us! [Recommended for those who:] ■ Want to know the deterioration status of their pipes ■ Are considering pipe renewal but are troubled by high costs ■ Are paying ongoing costs for pipe management, such as internal cleaning *You can download materials for free. *Please feel free to contact us first. *The free diagnosis is applicable to customers considering the introduction of our products only.

Fukuda Co., Ltd., which develops, manufactures, and sells leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing performance, provides a technical document that clearly explains the methods and theories of airtight testing, titled "Technical Manual." We are offering it as a PDF file. Please take this opportunity to download and view it!

● What is a hydrogen leak detector? It can measure leaks in small areas that could not be detected in air leak tests and can also identify the leak locations. It is a detector that uses a mixture of 5% hydrogen and 95% nitrogen (non-flammable gas: ISO10156:2017) as the tracer gas. ● What is a helium leak test system? It is a leak test system suitable for high-precision or high-pressure leak inspections. The helium leak test system uses helium gas as the detection gas (tracer gas) and detects the helium that has leaked out. It is the leak test method among Fukuda's leak testers that can detect the smallest leaks.

● What is a flow meter? Flow meters measure flow rates using mass flow meters or laminar flow meters and perform pass/fail judgments based on flow rate criteria. They are ideal for measuring airflow and conducting performance tests. "FMZ-1063 series" This is a flow tester equipped with a mass flow meter. It offers high precision of ± 3.5 % of R.D. ± 1 digit (in the normal flow range). It features a time-saving function (scan measurement). The FMZ-1063 is a compact, all-in-one flow tester with various functions. "FU series" This is a flow measurement unit that integrates laminar and differential pressure sensors, making it smaller and lighter. When connected to a display indicator (model: MI-170), it can provide direct flow readings as well as pressure and flow judgments. "FLF-110 series" This is a laminar flow meter capable of measuring a wide range of flow rates from 2 NmL/min to 500 NL/min.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where sheet boards are used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. Traditionally, steel plates have been the mainstream choice, but due to their weight, they require considerable effort for transportation, installation, and removal, which can affect work efficiency depending on site conditions. Hyper CLT sheet boards are civil engineering materials made from CLT, which is wood. While being a sheet board that utilizes wood, it can serve as an alternative to steel plates for measures against muddy conditions, ground protection, and ensuring work pathways. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, contributing to reduced handling and construction burdens on site. Additionally, the unique properties of wood help in reducing glare, lowering noise, and fixing CO2, leading to environmentally friendly proposals. By leveraging the characteristics of wood instead of steel, it also aids in improving the working environment during summer and addressing noise issues in surrounding areas. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," it is an easily applicable alternative material for public works that encourages creativity and safety measures. It is recommended for companies considering wood, sheet boards, timber, civil engineering applications, and civil engineering CLT. We also accept requests for materials tailored to site conditions and consultations for implementation. Proposals can be made for both public and private construction projects.
