]]> BIOCIDE BS is a high performance broad spectrum isothiazoline biocide for the chemical control of a wide variety of algae, bacteria (including Sulphate reducing bacteria) and fungi commonly found in water and glycol process systems, Cooling Towers and storage tanks.

Biocide BS is a versatile product ideal for:

• Controlling slimes, odours, moulds and biological growth in cutting fluids and processing aids.
• As an additive in paints and antifoulants for control of mildew, mould and fungus.
• An effective bilge treatment to control marine plant and animal life such as algae, hydroids and barnacles.

Use Recommendations

BIOCIDE BS is effective at very low concentrations of 12 ppm active ingredient in the control of algae, bacteria and fungi. Recommendations are based with out knowledge of individual water contaminates.

Slug Dosing Recommendations:

When the system is noticeably fouled:

1. 20 to 70ppm for every 4000 Litres.
2. Repeat until microbial control.

Intermittent Maintenance Dosing Recommendations:

1. After establishing microbial control: 13.5 to 80 ppm.
2. Dose 2 to 3 times per week based on microbial control.
3. Sulphate Reducing Bacteria control between 45 to 85 ppm.

Use Recommendations

This product is generally used at concentration from 1:5 to 1:15 parts water depending on application and it is highly recommended that the user application trial/s in an inconspicuous area prior to tacking the larger job at hand. The product can be used via immersion, swab or re circulation techniques. The time taken to descale most items is approximately 10-60 minutes. Such a wide time span is given because results vary depending primarily on scale type and build up, dilution ratio and temperature. Once a surface has been cleaned always flush with copious amounts of water to removal all acid residues.

BENEFITS & TIPS:

• • Inhibited to reduce attack on metals.
  • Dissolves scale and concrete.
  • Removes iron stains.
  • Removes rust.
  • Economical.
  • No heat required.
  • Fast results.

  GUIDELINE DILUTIONS

  • Ship Hold: 1 part Descaler to 15 parts water.
  • Concrete Removal: 1 part Descaler to 5 parts water.
