The patented technology uses a scientifically sophisticated yet practical variable feedback responsive control and metering system to flush salt and minerals from the internal components of marine engines more effectively and conveniently than any conventional method.

The system uses an extremely effective multi-point injection strategy, and a technology known as Sequentially Pulsed Overfill Back Flush TM to achieve incomparable results, which through ease of use facilitates the flushing operation.
The Superflush unit receives water through a quick disconnect fitting on a regular garden hose, injected into the engine on each side of the thermostat's through fittings installed on the engine replacing plugs that are already in the engine or by tapping into hoses normally installed on the engines.
The engine is not run during Superflush operation. Due to the high capacity of the modern marine engine pumping systems, engine cavity and exhaust components are not completely filled with water using convention flushing systems, leaving the upper reaches of these subsystems dry , which causes much higher than normal internal temperatures. The casting marks, seams, transitional areas of uneven thickness, and any 90 degree or greater bend in the coolant flow channels in modern marine engines are all attractors for salt build-up, which seems to proceed in a roughly geometrical progression once started. When salt build-up occurs, it effectively creates an isolation boundary layer that blocks the dissipation or radiation of heat. When this happens, hot spots occur which cause thermal stress, and or shock which rapidly lead to failure. It has been determined that up to 90% of impeller wear (on systems using centrifugal style neoprene based impellers) occurs during engine flushing.
The Superflush system overcomes these and other problems due to the following combination of events:
1. The engine is not run with the Superflush system, therefore, no heat is generated to create hotspots.
2. The metering components of the Superflush system constantly adjusts the output levels at each injection point, ensuring continuous pressure and volume levels in all the engine subsystems (water transfer systems, heat exchange systems, raw water pumps, circulating pumps, engine block and heads, and manifold systems).
3. The Superflush system creates hydrostatic shock waves that are sent through the engine cooling systems and subsystems between 7,500-10,850 primary pulses per minute, depending upon the application.
This hydrostatic shock pulse reaches every cavity of the engine cooling system, breaking salt and minerals loose and flushing them out of the engine. The engine is completely flushed after 4 to 6 minutes. When used properly the Superflush enhances the operational readiness and reliability and significantly reduce man hours required for maintenance and greatly extend the operational life of marine power plants in all marine environments.
