Alpha Descaler: Regular Strength Formula

Our Alpha Descaler is a powerful, regular-strength descaling solution, enhanced with cleaning and penetrating agents to tackle stubborn scale mixed with tough materials like silica and other deposits that require effective removal.

Key Features

• Powerful Descaling Action: Equivalent cleaning strength to a 10% HCl solution, yet designed to be safe on all metals, including stainless steel.
• Metal-Safe Formula: Contains no chlorine, making it suitable for use on a variety of metal surfaces without risk of corrosion.

Alpha Descaler is formulated to be safe on a wide range of metals, making it versatile for various applications. The metals it can be safely used on include:

• Copper (Cu)
• Mild Steel (MS)
• Stainless Steel (SS)
• Aluminum Fins

This descaler is chlorine-free and specifically designed to prevent corrosion, ensuring effective descaling without damaging these sensitive metals.

Available Volumes

• 5 Gallon (20 Liters)
• 55 Gallon (208 Liters)

Alpha Descaler: Superior Solution for Stainless Steel Plate Heat Exchangers

Alpha Descaler is formulated to enhance cleaning performance for stainless steel plate heat exchangers, effectively overcoming the limitations of conventional descaling methods. Ideal for exchangers with stainless steel, copper-brazed connections, and gaskets, it offers a safe alternative to traditional acids, which often require cautious application due to potential damage.

Challenges with Conventional Descaling Acids

• Hydrochloric Acid (HCl): Although marketed as stainless steel-safe, HCl can still damage stainless steel, making cautious application necessary.
• Phosphoric Acid: Suitable for stainless steel but may corrode copper brazing in heat exchangers.
• Other Acids: Many descalers can degrade seals and gaskets.
• Citric Acid: While safe, it is often inefficient and costly for extensive scale removal.

Why Choose Alpha Descaler & Alpha Descaler FG (Food Grade)?

Both Alpha Descaler and Alpha Descaler FG (available in regular and extra strength) offer considerable advantages over traditional descaling acids:

Key Benefits
