Device for focusing a magnetic field to treat fluids in conduits
First Claim
1. A magnetic field application device for applying a shielded magnetic field to a liquid flowing within a conduit, the device comprising:
- at least three ferrite ceramic magnets, each having a north pole and a south pole with a magnetic field emanating therefrom;
at least three magnet casings, each comprising an outer casing wall of ferrous content stainless steel to confine the magnetic field inside the outer casing wall, the at least three magnet casings being adjustably and removably attached to one another around a non-ferrous section of a fluid conduit, an inner magnet holder frame attached to the outer casing wall to hold a magnet in proximity to the conduit, the inner magnet holder frame being fabricated of non-ferrous stainless steel to allow maximum transmission of the magnetic field to the fluid in the conduit, the magnet holder frames securing the ferrite ceramic magnets in an annular array with the magnets equally spaced around the conduit with the magnetic poles of the at least three ferrite ceramic magnets all oriented identically with the same pole facing the conduit.

Abstract
Three magnet casings are adjustably and removably attached to one another such that the device may snuggly fit about fluid conduits of differing diameters. An outer casing wall of ferrous content stainless steel confines the magnetic field. An inner magnet holder frame attached to the outer casing wall holds a magnet to the conduit and is fabricated of non-ferrous stainless steel to allow maximum trans mission of the magnetic field to the fluid in the non-ferrous section of the conduit around which the casings are attached together.
