FE-707 DESCALAR
- GENERAL
DESCRIPTION:-
FE-707 is a compound
made of passivated acids. It is designed to eliminate deposits attached
to the linings of all machinery carrying or containing of hot or cold
water, such as: pipe work, water heater cons, water tanks condensers,
chillers, boilers etc.
- DOSAGE:-
Use 10-200 gms per
litre of FE-707 depending on whether a slow or fast reaction is desired.
Solutions of low concerntration (1to5%) allow slow descaling in closed
circuits while the machinery is running (i.e. cooling circuits run by
press or motor.)
Solution of higher
concerntration (20%) are designed for repid action steel baths, water
heater coils, machinery that can be taken apart, where immobilization
time must be greatly reduced, etc.
-
APPLICATIONS AND METHODS OF USE:-
FE-707 is easily
soluble in water. The dissolution occurs more rapidly in hot water
(about 50 oC), and the solution is chemically active as soon
as dissolved.
When there are no
more bubbles being produced on the bath surface or at the pipe
openings, the deposits have been eliminated. The pH should stay less
than or equal to 2.5 (or color of solution changes).
-
NEUTRALIZING & PASSIVATION:-
After descaling,
empty and rinse well with clear water, neutralize using a 3% solution of
soda ash or caustic and then empty again and return to service, after
thorough rinsing.
Our technical
service will give you all the information necessary in order to avid new
scale build-up.
FE-707 does not act
on non-ferrous metals, seams, plastics, natural or synthertic rubber.
There could be much foam during the operation which prove the
effectiveness of the reaction. It does not present any risk to the
installation.
-
SAFETY &
PRECAUTIONS:-
Because FE-707 is an
acid product, we recommend wearing gloves and safety glasses when
handling.
It does not emit
toxic vapors, so it can be used near flame. It can be kept indefinitely
if stored in a dry place. In case of accidental contact with hands or
clothes, rinse copiously with fresh water.
