Description
AlfaDescalent
A non-hazardous acidic cleaning agent for the removal of inorganic scale.
AlfaDegreaser
A non-hazardous cleaning agent for the removal of oil, grease or wax deposits. Also
prevents foaming when using Alpacon Descaler.
AlfaAdd
AlfaAdd is a neutral cleaning strengthener designed to be used with AlfaPhos, Alfa-
Caus and Alfa P-Scale. 0.5–1 vol% is added to the total diluted cleaning solution to
provide better cleaning results on oily and fatty surfaces and where biological
growth occurs. AlfaAdd also reduces any foaming.
If CIP cannot be done, cleaning must be done manually. See Section
Chlorine as a growth inhibitor
Chlorine, commonly used as a growth inhibitor in cooling water systems,
reduces the corrosion resistance of stainless steels (including high alloys like
Alloy 254).
Chlorine weakens the protection layer of these steels making them more
susceptible to corrosion attacks then they otherwise would be. It is a matter of
time of exposure and concentration.
In all cases where the chlorination of non-titanium equipment cannot be
avoided, your local representative must be consulted.
Water of more than 330 ppm Cl ions may not be used in the preparation of
cleaning solutions.
CAUTION
Risk of personal injury.
Ensure that the handling of residuals after using chlorines follow local
envionmental regulations.
NOTE
Titanium is not affected by chlorine.
