3 LIQUID BOILER WATER TREATMENT
pH, corrosion, scale and sludge controller for boiler water
Description
Aquamarine Boiler Water Treatment is a combined concentrate liquid alkaline product that inhibits corrosion, controls alkalinity, controls hardness and oxygen. It is easy to use, non-hazardous and effective. It functions by neutralising acid conditions, precipitating salts, sludge conditioning and oxygen scavenging.
For additional Oxygen Scavenger please see separate product details.
Use
Boiler water additive for low/medium pressure boilers (up to 250 psi).
Application
Aquamarine Boiler Water Treatment is fed into the water feed line by means of a continuous feed dosing pump.
Initial dose: 0.4 litre of Boiler Water Treatment/tonne in the boiler water system.
| P. Alkalinity p.p.m. CaCO3 | 0 | 50 | 100 | 150 | 200 | 225 | 300 | Above 300 Blowdown Required |
| Litres/tonnes Dose BWT | 0.4 | 0.3 | 0.2 | 0.1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Please download a boiler water log sheet from the log sheet section. Logs should be submitted monthly for analysis and a report will be sent out by the end of the month in which they are received.
Above 200 p.p.m. no dose is required but above 300 p.Alkalinity p.p.m. blowdown should be implemented.
Sulphite should be kept at 20-40 ppm or according to manufacturers guide-lines.
Chloride content should be controlled below a level of 200 p.p.m. (Above 200 - Blowdown).
Key parameters are P.Alkalinity, Chloride and Sulphite. Please ensure that all the test reagents are within the date on the bottle before using.
Feedwater Temperatures
Some typical issues:
•Temperature of the hotwell is too low. (The temperature should be kept between 70° - 80° C to reduce the oxygen content)
•Return condensate lines and make up line are fitted above the water level. ( Tubes to be length under the water level to avoid oxygen intake) •Hotwell covers open! (steam cushion left)
•Temperature of hotwell is above the 90° C. ( Temperature must be kept maximum 90° C to avoid cavitation)
•Feed pump should be placed on the same level as the hotwell or one deck lower to avoid vapour formation in the pump
Aquamarine BWT test kit is available for accurate system checking.
