A device and method for the treatment of a fluid with magnetic lines of force are disclosed. The device comprises an elongated outer casing and at least two spaced-apart elongated magnet assemblies positioned therein to form at least one laminar passageway for said fluid. Each magnet assembly comprises at least one tier of at least two permanent magnets or at least two magnetic sections of a single permanent magnet arranged in coaxial line in N-N and S-S relation. The ends of each tier of magnets or magnetic sections are supported by support members and, when said tier contains more than one magnet, the length of said tier is supported between its ends. The magnet assemblies are positioned so that the polarities of adjacent polar ends of magnets or magnetic sections in one of said magnet assemblies are unlike the polarities of the oppositely disposed adjacent polar ends of magnets or magnetic sections in a spaced-apart magnet assembly. The device and method are effective to reduce or inhibit the formation of scale in a system in which the treated fluid is used.
