Genuit Group has patented a magnetic debris level measuring device for magnetic filters in central heating systems. The device uses a magnetometer and temperature sensor to calculate captured debris levels, issuing notifications when the filter is full. The system updates the threshold if debris continues to be captured after the ‘full’ notification.

Magnetic debris level measuring device for central heating system
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11919009B2) discloses a captured debris level measuring device designed for use in a magnetic filter within a central heating system. The device includes a magnetometer and a temperature sensor mounted on the filter, connected to a control unit. The control unit issues notifications based on readings from the magnetometer and temperature sensor, indicating when the amount of debris captured in the filter exceeds a predetermined threshold. Importantly, the control unit utilizes temperature sensor readings only when there is minimal temperature change over a set period, ensuring accurate determination of magnetic debris levels.
Furthermore, the device's control unit can adjust the magnetic field strength reading from the magnetometer by combining it with temperature readings to calculate a corrected magnetic field strength. This correction process involves a correction exponent and a constant, allowing for a more precise assessment of debris levels within the filter. The control unit can compare this corrected magnetic field strength to a stored threshold level and issue notifications accordingly. Additionally, the device includes data transmission capabilities to send measured magnetic field strength data to a central server, enabling remote monitoring and analysis of debris levels in real-time.
