Ottawa, Canada, June 29, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Corprotech Inc., North American distributor for the NMR Pipetector™ from the NMR Corporation Japan, announces the introduction of the NMR Pipetector™ to North America.  The NMR Pipetector™ is not a super magnet.  Using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), it is self-powered, with no running or maintenance costs.  It is the only stand-alone chemical-free anti-corrosion solution available today for all metal water pipes.  Eliminates the expensive need to tear out walls & ceilings to replace and repair corroded pipes with no stop in water supply.

Would you like to reduce water pipe corrosion by as much as 93.7?  The Hotel Touzankaku in Kyoto, did just that in 8 weeks.

Would you like to reduce metal water pipe corrosion by 65.4% and improve water color by 87.5% in only 1 month like the Shilla Hotel?

The Shilla Hotel, Seoul Korea: The NMR Pipetector™ within 1 month achieved a 65.4% reduction in corrosion which exceeded government standards by 10%, and improved water color by 87.5%.

The Shilla Hotel, over 20 years old with Steel Galvanized Pipes (SGP), experiencing severe pipe corrosion and water discoloration in the hotel restaurant.  Flushing of the water for more than 5 minutes each morning was required, until the discolored water passed and staff were able to obtain usable water in the restaurant facility.

Results: Just one month after installation of the NMR Pipetector™, discolored water was eliminated.  The water was clear with no requirement to run the faucets in order to obtain usable water and corrosion decreased from 0.78 mg/l to 0.27 mg/l.  In only 4 weeks, the NMR Pipetector™ achieved a 65.4% reduction in corrosion, exceeding government standards by 10% and improving water color by 87.5%. 

Hotel Touzankaku, Kyoto, Japan: In 8 weeks the NMR Pipetector™ Reduced Corrosion by 93.7% and Exceeded Government Standards of 3.0 mg/l by 10%
Hotel Touzankaku built in 1959, had undergone 10 partial pipe change outs over the last 42 years.  Steel Galvanized Pipes (SGP) were used in all bathrooms.  Using steel galvanized pipes led to further corrosion build up in hot water supply pipes.  Before the installation of the NMR Pipetector™, the corrosion content in room #538 was the worst at 4.3 mg/l, with guests experiencing severe water discoloration.

Results: With no stop in water supply and no stop in room rentals, the NMR Pipetector™ was installed.  Only 8 weeks after installation, the corrosion content decreased to 0.27 mg/l, continued to drop water and water discoloration stopped. The NMR Pipetector™ eliminated corrosion from the hotel water pipe system; prolonged the working life of the existing pipe system; increased system efficiency, decreased operational costs & eliminated the need for expensive ripping out of walls, ceilings and floors to repair corroded and damaged pipes, saving thousands of dollars in redecorating, repair and replacement costs; and saved thousands of dollars in lost revenue from un-rented guest rooms.

“The NMR Pipetector™ is revolutionizing how facility managers, building owners and end users eliminate the problem of metal water pipe corrosion in North America.  Clients can now move away from the Failure Management approach to metal water pipe corrosion which can costs hundreds of thousands of dollars with the cost of new pipes, tearing out existing walls to reach corroded pipes and lost revenues when rooms are not occupied, to the Preventative Management approach, eliminating corrosion, increasing pipe system efficiency and reducing operational costs. The NMR Pipetector™ is the missing piece that facility managers and anti-corrosion professionals have been waiting for to achieve corrosion free metal water pipe systems.” said David Tait, President of Corprotech Inc.

The NMR Pipetector™ is available in sizes ranging from the PT-20DS fitting pipes with an inner diameter of 6-25 mm up to the PT-2000DS for pipes with inner diameters up to 2000 mm.   

Bottom line, the NMR Pipetector eliminates corrosion, reduces operating costs, requires no stop in water supply before, during or after installation and extends the operational life of existing metal water pipe systems; increases pipe flow and increases system efficiency.  Corrosion is Stopped, Reversed & Eliminated. Period.
