Below
are general guidelines for how to use Dynamic
Descaler® on the following types of
equipment:
- Air
compressors
- Cooling towers and closed circuit
cooling
- Heat exchangers
- Vacuum pumps
- Specific application may differ depending on
the specific equipment, layout, and other factors. Call us if you have any
questions on how to most effectively use Dynamic
Descaler® on your equipment.
Air Compressors
A reciprocating air compressor is normally a
heavy-duty, continuous service compressor. Cylinder construction usually
incorporates a water jacketed cylinder and water jacketed heads to remove some
of the heat of compression and also to improve the lubrication and reduce
carbonization of valve parts. Water jacketing around valve and packing is
essential, since these are points of localized heating.
As time
goes on, you will have lime, water scale and rust accumulation inside the water
jackets, which in time, will overheat the air compressor. This will also occur
in the intercooler and aftercooler. With Dynamic
Descaler® lime, water scale, rust remover you can clean these
vital parts, without disassembling the cylinders, aftercooler, and the
intercooler. Just simply remove the water in/out connection from each part and
circulate Dynamic Descaler® for
the recommended amount of time. After the circulation, flush with water and
connect the water in/out connections back to the proper
location.
If your
compressor is running off a closed loop water system or a cooling tower, you
may want to pour the Dynamic
Descaler® into one of these systems. This will eliminate the
downtime in your plant operation versus disconnecting your in/out connections
from each vital part.

Descaler® and circulation times, please click

For
proper quantity and circulating times to run Dynamic Descaler® through the cooling tower or closed
loop water system to clean the compressor, (without shutting down plant
operations), please contact us.
Cooling Towers & Closed
Circuit Cooling
Dynamic
Descaler® Water Scale, Lime, Rust, Dirt Remover used in the cleaning of cooling
towers and closed circuit water cooling systems is most usually accomplished
while the water cooled equipment is online and without the necessity of
shut-down. In order to dissolve all water scale, lime, rust and dirt from the
waterside of your equipment, it is imperative that these instructions are
followed.

Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers in many manufacturing facilities
are very crucial in everyday operations. Heat exchangers are designed to
transfer heat in the form of kinetic energy from one liquid to another. And
while transferring heat, the heat exchanger, over a period of time will collect
lime, scale and rust on the waterside of the exchanger.
With
Dynamic Descaler®, you do not
have to dismantle or remove the unit from your operations. You may want to
install a system, which will inject Dynamic
Descaler® into your water supply on a regular basis for your
cooling tower, chiller, or your closed loop water system. This procedure will
eliminate downtime in your everyday operations while cleaning out your
exchanger.

Vacuum Pumps

lime, mud and rust from the casting, rotor, hub, cones and associated piping of
your vacuum pumps, click here.
There
are several formulations for chemical descaling in addition to
Dynamic Descaler®. We take pride
in the fact that we believe to have one of the lowest rates of corrosion,
highest standard of product safety to personnel and equipment, as well as
fastest rates of scale removal and greatest longevity of product at the lowest
price than any competitor world-wide.
Some
competitors claim that their product, while containing HCl, is safe to use on
stainless steel. Nothing could be further from the truth. Any HCl based product
will create on stainless steel corrosion stress cracking over time, also known
as hydrogen embrittlement. We have on record many customers who have used some
competitive products who have found this out the difficult way with damaged
equipment.
