The product is a liquid concentrate of exceptional purity, clarity, and stability utilizing a broad spectrum of phosphates for better sequestering and corrosion control.
BENEFITS OF CARUS 8500
• Inhibits corrosion of steel distribution system water lines, iron and galvanized piping, and lead and copper plumbing
• Decreases iron tuberculation to extend the life of the distribution system
• Inhibits lead and copper leaching resulting in lower lead and copper levels in the delivered potable water
• Minimizes the occurrence of microbial-influenced corrosion providing longer life system
• Controls iron and manganese minimizing rusty and dirty water in the system
• Reduces discoloration, staining, and mineral build-up resulting in fewer customer complaints
• Diminishes calcium scale deposits typically seen in hot water lines and heaters
• Saves money by reducing corrosion and scale; lowering chlorine demand and decreasing hydrant flushing, leaks and failures
