Did you know, how to keep system scale and corrosion free, water CLEAR and Sludge free?

RXSOL-33-5027-025 Scale Hardness Stabilizer contains Polycarboxylate Phosphate and synthetic low molecular wt polymer  to control sludge which results in the clean boiler water. USES of RXSOL-33-5027-025 control Hardness and provide tolerance of feedwater quality fluctuations.

Chemically one part of The RXSOL-33-5027-025 polymers  keeping the sludge particles soft by increasing property of nonadherent which also resulting smooth blowdown during cleaning and maintenance operation.


While Other part of Phosphate which is used in RXSOL-33-5027-025 serve as deposit control agents by Iron dispersancy, main cause of sequestering deposits.

USES of RXSOL-33-5027-025 during sea water treatment, can help and keep WATER CLEAN and CLEAR.

Wash thoroughly in case of contact. Do not swallow.
 

pH Control

Maintenance of proper pH throughout the boiler feedwater, boiler, and condensate systems is essential for corrosion control. Most low-pressure boiler system operators monitor boiler water alkalinity because it correlates very closely with pH, while most feedwater, condensate, and high-pressure boiler water requires direct monitoring of pH. Control of pH is important for the following reasons:

• corrosion rates of metals used in boiler systems are sensitive to variations in pH
• low pH or insufficient alkalinity can result in corrosive acidic attack
• high pH or excess alkalinity can result in caustic gouging/cracking and foaming, with resultant carryover
• speed of oxygen scavenging reactions is highly dependent on pH levels

The pH or alkalinity level maintained in a boiler system depends on many factors, such as sys-tem pressure, system metals, feedwater quality, and type of chemical treatment applied.

The corrosion rate of carbon steel at feedwater temperatures approaches a minimum value in the pH range of 9.2-9.6 . It is important to monitor the feedwater system for corrosion by means of iron and copper testing. For systems with sodium zeolite or hot lime softened makeup, pH adjustment may not be necessary. In systems that use deionized water makeup, small amounts of caustic soda or neutralizing amines, such as morpholine and cyclohexylamine, can be used.

In the boiler, either high or low pH increases the corrosion rates of mild steelThe pH or alkalinity that is maintained depends on the pressure, makeup water characteristics, chemical treatment, and other factors specific to the system.

The best pH for protection of copper alloys is somewhat lower than the optimum level for carbon steel. For systems that contain both metals, the condensate and feedwater pH is often maintained between 8.8 and 9.2 for corrosion protection of both metals. The optimum pH varies from system to system and depends on many factors, including the alloy used 

To elevate pH, neutralizing amines should be used instead of ammonia, which (especially in the presence of oxygen) accelerates copper alloy corrosion rates. Also, amines form protective films on copper oxide surfaces that inhibit corrosion.
