Boiler Water Oxygen Scavanger
Metallic corrosion due to oxygen is a major concern in the operation and maintenance of industrial boiler systems and steam plants. Oxygen derived from boiler water will corrode metallic components leading to increased maintenance costs and reduced boiler efficiency. To ensure that such boiler systems are well maintained and operate at optimum efficiency our specially formulated Sulphite Based oxygen scavenger helps in rapid and complete removal of dissolved oxygen form feed water and boiler water. It is an instant oxygen scavenger and normal reaction time with oxygen is only 15 to 20 second at ambient temperatures.

Safe implementation
Review the current TDS and SDS before storage, handling, dilution or dosing. Confirm material compatibility, PPE, dosing point and treatment residuals with the site water-treatment specialist.
Common implementation questions.
How is the correct dosage selected?
Dosage depends on system volume or flow, water analysis, operating pressure or recovery, contaminant loading and the target residual. Start from the current product literature and optimise using measured results.
Can this product be selected only from the product name?
No. Similar problems can have different causes. Confirm the system type, water chemistry, metallurgy, operating conditions and existing treatment before changing the programme.
What should be monitored after starting treatment?
Monitor the application-specific parameters listed above, together with dosage, residual, system performance and equipment condition. Trend data is more useful than a single isolated reading.
Where can I obtain the latest TDS, MSDS or certificate?
Use the document links on this page where available, or contact Rakiro for the latest controlled copy.
