Product Technical Bulletin | |
ALKEN AFZ-875 is a blend of polyols specifically designed to control foaming in boilers caused by oil contamination, excessively high dissolved solids and/or alkalinity, and many types of process contamination. ALKEN® AFZ-875 reduces surface tension, breaks oil emulsions, and maintains boiler water conditions to assure normal steam release at the water-steam interface. Foaming and the probability of carryover are minimized. |
|
ALKEN® AFZ-875 should be blended and fed with other internal treatment chemicals. Continuous feed is strongly recommended. Dosage requirements vary according to the amount and nature of contaminents, boiler design, and steam demand. Typically, dosages range between one-quarter pint and one pint per 5,000 gallons of feedwater. Actual dosage must be determined from measurement of steam purity. |
ALKEN® AFZ-875 is shipped in containers conforming to Performance Oriented Packaging specifications in 15-, 30- and 55 gallon sizes. Keep container closed when not in use. Store at moderate temperatures, do not freeze. Periods of exposure to high temperature should be minimized. |
ALKEN® AFZ-875 complies with FDA 21 CFR 184.1139 regulations for boiler water additives used in preparation of steam that will contact food and was authorized by USDA for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants, category "G6", "for use as a boiler water additive, used in the preparation of steam that WILL contact food".
