Dilution: |
One to
two
ounces
per
gallon
of water
with a
flow
rate of
1 to 1
1/2
gallons
per hour
per
cubic
foot of
mass.
With
descaling
operations,
concentrations
of 4 to
6 ounces
per
gallon
of
water,
but with
very low
flow
rates
may be
best.
In batch
systems,
2 to 3
ounces
per
gallon
are
required.
Concentrations
will be
higher
for very
oily
parts or
short
process
cycles. |
