pH boosters (DE Maxtreat-201) are used in steam boilers to maintain optimal pH levels in the boiler water.
Corrosion Prevention: Maintaining a proper pH level (typically between 8.5 and 10.5) helps reduce the corrosive effects of acidic or alkaline conditions on metal surfaces, protecting the boiler from damage.
Scale Control: A balanced pH helps inhibit scale formation, as extreme pH levels can promote the precipitation of minerals that lead to scaling.
Water Quality Maintenance: pH boosters contribute to overall water quality, ensuring that the water remains suitable for steam production and does not contain harmful contaminants.
Operational Efficiency: By stabilizing the pH, the boiler operates more efficiently, which can lead to lower fuel consumption and improved heat transfer.
Compatibility with Other Treatments: pH boosters work in conjunction with other water treatment chemicals, such as oxygen scavengers and antiscalants, to enhance overall system performance.
