Aquacros® HC-3850

Chemical Family
Phosphates

Aquacros® HC-3850 is a high performance dry blended phosphate product designed to sequester iron and manganese as well as hardness salts while also providing corrosion control. It reduces build up of scale in the distribution system, reduces the need for replacing existing piping and associated equipment attributed to excessive deposition or under-deposit corrosion, and assists municipalities in meeting the Lead and Copper Rule. It is a white powder.

Preparation and Feeding Information

Aquacros® HC-3850 may be fed directly from the container. A dose of 10 pounds of Aquacros® HC-3850 per million gallons of water will achieve a 1.0 ppm total ortho phosphate treatment level.

Features and Benefits

Reduced build up of scale in the distribution system.; Reduction of replacing existing piping and associated equipment attributed to excessive deposition or under-deposit corrosion.; Assists municipalities in meeting the Lead and Copper Rule.; NSF/ANSI Standard 60 approved for drinking water.; Produces a tight protective coating on metal surfaces, prolonging the life of the system's equipment.; Blended poly/ortho phosphate products allow for sequestering and corrosion control. Zinc/ortho phosphate blends provide excellent corrosion control in very aggressive water systems and are extremely effective for galvanic corrosion control in mixed metal systems; These products can remove old scale and corrosion deposits throughout the system which will lower maintenance, operating and equipment replacement costs; The Aquacros products create a tight protective coating on metal surfaces throughout the distribution system; Usage of Aquacros assists municipalities in meeting the 1991 EPA Lead and Copper Rule, by reducing lead and copper leaching and pipe corrosion; ANSI/NSF Standard 60 approved for drinking water; Aquacros products can be used in conjunction with Harcros' family of specialty water chemicals to provide complete protection and optimal performance of any water system
