An electromagnetic ground water conditioning system and sampling device comprising a holding tank, a pump, filters and timers to regulate the time and duration of blowout of settled solids at the bottom of the tank. The electromagnetic water conditioning unit is that disclosed and claimed in my allowed patent application Ser. No. 153,219 filed May 27, 1980, entitled Free Flow Non-Corrosive Water Treatment Device, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,288,323. A blowout valve at the bottom of the tank is solenoid operated and regulated to discharge a small liquid volume of settled solids. One timer is a 24-hour timer to set the blowdown start, the other is a 30-minute timer which sets the duration of the blowdown. For ground water or sewage water or industrial waste water a 2-hour setting on the 24-hour timer and a 10-second setting on the 60-second timer is preferred. The amount blown out is 1/10 gallon. This assembly and system is especially useful for sampling and monitoring industrial waste water, or industrial effluent, for preparing makeup water for fermentation and non-chemical sterilization and for the treatment of ground water containing toxic heavy metals in solution by hydrogen sulfide alone.

An electromagnetic ground water conditioning apparatus comprising: a holding tank with an inlet and an outlet for holding ground water which is treated in said apparatus; an electromagnetic water conditioning unit comprising an inlet from said tank, a ferromagnetic casing, an electromagnetic winding surrounding said casing to create a magnetic field of about 3,000 oersteds on said casing, an impeller mounting in bearings at each end of said casing which rotates in response to the water pressure from said inlet and a water outlet at the other end of said casing; a pump between said holding tank outlet and said electromagnetic unit; a semicircular band fitted with flanges which encircles said holding tank and is adapted to hold a bracket supporting means to mount said electromagnetic unit at about the middle of said holding tank; a bracket connected to said band to mount said electromagnetic water conditioning unit; a pipe means connecting said pump to the inlet pipe of said electromagnetic unit; a filter means between said pump and inlet pipe fed by water passing through said pipe means; said pipe means further connecting said filter means to the outlet of said electromagnetic unit; a return line from the outlet of said filter to said holding tank for recirculating water from said filter back into said holding tank by the pumping action of said pump into said electromagnetic water conditioning unit; and a blowdown unit comprising timing devices electrically connected to a solenoid operated drain valve at the bottom of said tank whereby solids precipitated by the electromagnetic treatment in said electromagnetic unit are blown out of said tank for predetermined short intervals of the order of seconds to thereby clarify the incoming water without the need for water treatment chemicals.
