DESCRIPTION AND USE

Inhibitor AZ8104 is an unique azole chemistry used for the inhibition of copper and copper alloy heat exchanger surfaces. This material is used to establish a protective corrosion inhibitor film on the metal surface. Inhibitor AZ8104 is unique because it is compat-ible with oxidizing biocides. This makes it a good choice for cooling systems where chlorine and/or bromine are used to control microbiological activity. Indirectly, it also reduces the corrosion of steel sur-faces within a given cooling system. This occurs if the steel corrosion is a result of a galvanic reaction between the steel surface and the products of copper corrosion which have been deposited on the steel.
Inhibitor AZ8104 can improve copper and copper alloy corrosion rates in the presence of oxidizing biocides. 

TREATMENT AND FEEDING REQUIREMENTS

Dosage – Proper treatment levels of Inhibitor AZ8104 depend on many factors, such as corrosion load and conditions particular to a given installation. This product is to be used in accordance with control procedures GE Betz establishes for a specific application.

Feedpoint – Inhibitor AZ8104 should be fed at a point in the cooling water where turbulence, flow pattern,etc. will insure good mixing of the product with the water to be treated.

Dilution – Inhibitor AZ8104 has to be fed from the shipping container directly.

Feed Equipment – Stainless steel, polypropylene, polyethylene, PVC, Teflon, and hypalon tanks, pumps and piping are compatible with this product.
