CONTINUUM AT3202

Maximizes corrosion protection in alkaline waters
No toxic heavy metals
Controls deposition and scale
Reduces or eliminates acid feed
Organic inhibitor for copper metallurgy
Controlled by a simple and accurate test
DESCRIPTION AND USE
CONTINUUM AT3202 is a special blend of organic and inorganic corrosion inhibitors. It does not contain any toxic heavy metals.
It is designed to control cor-rosion and scale formation in open recirculating cooling water systems operating at high pH. All components of this alkaline blend are compatible with typi-cal chlorination practices.
CONTINUUM AT3202 protects many commonly used metals from corrosion by forming an inhibiting film on the metal surface.
In addition, deposit control agents in the product allow cooling systems to be operated in highly buffered, alkaline environments.
Operating in an elevated pH range also reduces or eliminates the need for acid feed.

CONTINUUM AT3202 also contains an organic inhibitor, especially suited for the protection of copper metallurgy.
Organic sequestrants and dispersants contained in CONTINUUM AT3202 are particularly effective in controlling calcium scales,iron,aluminum,silt,and suspended solids.
The program contains the unique calcium phosphate inhibitor, HPS 1, use of which is covered by U.S. Patents 4,759,851 and 4,895,663.
TREATMENT AND FEEDING REQUIREMENTS
Proper treatment levels for CONTINUUM AT3202 depend on many factors, such as the corrosion and scaling potentials, and conditions particular to a given installation. This product should be used in accordance with control procedures that BetzDearborn establishes for a specific application.
CONTINUUM AT3202 is best fed neat (undiluted) from the storage tank to a point in the cooling system with high turbulence, where it will be rapidly mixed with the bulk cooling water. Dilutions of the product, if necessary, should be made with soft water.
Tanks, pumps, piping and valves should be made of mild steel, stainless steel, polyethylene, or most com-mon plastics.
Feed of CONTINUUM AT3202 is controlled by a simple and accurate orthophosphate test.
