Mobile Differential Scale Loop

Faster, easier and more flexible inspection of scale deposits in pipelines

mobile Differential Scale Loop mDSL
The mobile Differential Scale Loop mDSL is a tube blocking system for analysing crystalline deposits from aqueous solutions, e.g. with salt, carbonate, sulphate, iron, sugar and geothermal water. You are not tied to the laboratory, but can simply take the mobile DSL to the customer or directly into the field. Thanks to the secure transport case, the mDSL is always well protected when travelling!

The mobile Differential Scale Loop simulates the conditions in pipework and production systems at temperatures up to 150 °C (302 °F) and pressures up to 172 bar (2,500 psi). The mobile DSL can also be used to test scale inhibitors, antiscalants, scale inhibitors or scale removers.

All important features of mobile DSL

Application Areas of mobile Differential Scale Loop

Examine crystalline deposits in pipework

Testing additives for water treatment

Testing deposit removers

Carry out tests on site at the customer or in the field

Optimize inhibitor concentration

Quality control

Mode of operation

The mobile Differential Scale Loop is a two-pump system. The standard test procedure utilises artificial, separate salt solutions with a fixed inhibitor concentration and a manual switch for salt solution or cleaning option.

The mobile Differential Scale Loop was specially developed to observe deposition processes under real conditions and to develop countermeasures. This is done in three steps:

  1. Determining how high the risk of deposits is
  2. Selection or development of an inhibitor (inhibitor substance)
  3. Testing the efficiency of the inhibitor and determining the required minimum concentration

Results are comparable

Efficient test control with WinDSLm software

Test conditions in terms of flow rates, temperature and pressure rates in the field test are comparable to the results from the laboratory.

With our WinDSLm software you can control all parameters for your experiment and record all relevant data. The software automatically stops the scale test as soon as a scale formation is detected. This prevents clogging of the capillaries and thus guarantees a long service life of the components.
