Came across this word in the Hymer manual about care of the Truma boiler..
what exactly does the following sentence mean ?
The boiler is protected against calcination if it is only used in maximum temperature position when a lot of warm water is used ..
Does it mean that using at a high temperature protects against calcium deposits .. i.e. scale forming ?
I think it's a translation glitch and it should read "calcium" .. not calcination..
Calcination definition in Wiki :-
Calcination
Authorities differ on the meaning of calcination (also referred to as calcining). The IUPAC defines it as 'Heating to high temperatures in air or oxygen'.[1] However calcination is also used to mean a thermal treatment process in the absence or limited supply of air or oxygen applied to and other solid materials to bring about a A calciner is a steel cylinder that rotates inside a heated furnace and performs indirect high-temperature processing (550-1150 °C, or 1000-2100 °F) within a controlled atmosphere.[2]
