Aquacros® Phosphate Blends 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
