Cool Water Treat
Cool Water Treat is an organic liquid corrosion coolant inhibitor with extended life for use in closed cooling water systems. This product offers protection for all commonly used materials in engine cooling water systems, including aluminum. Unlike other coolants, Cool Water Treat does not contain components subject to rapid depletion i.e. Nitrite and Silicate. Based on aliphatic acid technology Cool water Treat Corrosion Inhibitor is stable and hence the test frequency can be reduced. Cool water treat is fully organic and biodegradable.
Cool Water Treat is a highly effective corrosion inhibitor for all common metals in cooling water systems. Testing has shown no detrimental effects on non metallic substances such as seals, glands, packing, hoses, gaskets etc., normally used in these systems. Where most traditional inhibitors react with the metal surface and form oxides that prevent further corrosion, Cool Water Treat applies a thin and durable layer of protective molecules to the metal surfaces. This technology prevents the continuous build-up of insulating layers on heat transfer surfaces. For new builds, RXSOL Ships Service recommends cleaning of the water system before commencing service. The system will always contain small amounts of oil and iron oxides, and this can be removed in one operation. If the system is corroded or is more heavily contaminated, degreasing scale is recommended. For systems previously treated with other products, RXSOL Ships Service recommend to drain and flush the system before refilling with distilled water and Cool Water Treat . The system should be clean and free from scale and corrosion products when starting the treatment. The use of antifreeze is sometimes required if the vessel is to be laid up in cold areas, Cool water treat can be used in conjunction with glycols for frost protection. If used in conjunction with glycols, It is recommended to increase the product concentration to 8%.*
Cool Water Treat should be dosed to a suitable point in the system. If the expansion tank is used, adequate circulation must be assured.
Dosing and Control
Initial dosage for an untreated system is 60 litres of Cool Water Treat Cool water Treat Corrosion Inhibitor / ton of untreated distilled water (6%). This will provide sufficient protection of the system for a period of two to five years under normal conditions. 6% Cool water Treat Corrosion Inhibitor should also be dosed in all make up water added to the system to compensate for lost coolant. The engine manufacturer's recommendations for water quality should always be complied with. Chloride levels should always be as low as possible. Most engine manufacturers recommend a maximum of 50 ppm chlorides. For this reason, RXSOL Service recommends the use of distilled water as make-up.
