Sentinel water-treatment chemicals come in small packages

Delivering lifetime protection from corrosion and limescale in commercial heating and cooling system can be achieved using Sentinel Commercial’s Triple Power water-treatment chemicals. These chemicals can dose systems three times larger than previous formulations.

The Triple Power range comes in a 5 l drum to treat a system volume of 1667 l, a 10 l drum for 3333 l and a 20 l drum for 6666 l. The previous formulations were available in drum sizes of 10 l to treat 1000 l and 20 l to treat 2000 l.

Triple Power chemicals are part of Sentinel’s best-practice system of clean, protect and maintain.

Practically speaking, an installer would use Triple Power X300 cleaner to remove installation debris, flux residue and greases from a new system or X400 cleaner to remove black iron oxide and other corrosion debris in older systems — followed by X100 inhibitor to protect the system.

Maintenance involves the regular use of Sentinel’s SystemCheck to analyse system water and the implementation of corrective action if required.
