Descaling device for a beverage maker and method for operating a decalcification device

摘要

The invention relates to a descaling device (5) for decalcifying a fluid conduit system comprising a reservoir (6) which can be supplied with water via a water inlet, having a water-soluble descaling agent (60) contained therein, the solution of which is removed via a mixture outlet (6b) of the reservoir (6 ) Is discharged, wherein in the filled with water reservoir (6) is formed a forming saturated solution of the originally solid, powdery or pasty descaling agent (60). In order to increase the service life and the stability of the descaled descaling agent, an inhibitor is also incorporated in the descaling agent (60), which dissolves when the water is added together with the descaling agent (60) and provides the active solution (61). The invention further relates to a beverage maker (1) with a flow line system (2) and such a decalcification device (5).
