  • The silicate concentration does not decrease after JBL SilikatEx (rapid) is used. The silicate test always shows a deep-blue to black colouration, which indicates more than 6 mg/l of silicate.

    A reading of > 6 mg/l with the silicate test means that there are more than 6 mg/l of silicate in the water. It is not possible to check how many more silicates are present. There may be 10, 50 or even more mg/l of silicates. There are more than 40 mg/l in tap waters in many regions today. The respective water supplier can provide more detailed information or you can dilute the water to be measured with silicate-free water e.g. water that has been distilled twice prior to measuring. In the event that osmosis water is supposed to be used, its silicate content should also be measured. With 40 mg/l of silicates in the starting water JBL Osmose 120 is able to achieve a permeate with 0.4 – 1.2 mg/l of silicate. _x000D_ _x000D_ Therefore, with silicate values this high, the lowering effect of JBL SilikatEx can only be checked by diluting the water before measuring it. _x000D_ _x000D_ 500 g JBL SilikatEx binds 5000 mg silicate out of the water._x000D_ 400 g JBL SilikatEx Rapid binds approx. 12000 mg silicate out of the water. _x000D_ _x000D_ Sample calculation: _x000D_ _x000D_ 100 l tank with 50 mg/l of silicate in the starting water: _x000D_ _x000D_ 100 l x 50 mg/l = 5,000 mg of silicate.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event outside the context of a website, such as a new blog post, a competition or a voucher.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).
