Vitec® 5200

Summary

Product identification

• Product Name: Vitec® 5100
• Product Type: Antiscalant/Dispersant - Liquid
• Product Description: Liquid antiscalant/dispersant blended to inhibit scale and disperse colloidal particles in cellulose acetate and polyamide membrane separation systems.
• Certification: Certified by NSF International under ANSI/NSF Standard 60 for use in systems producing potable water at a maximum level of 13 mg/l.
• Compatibility: Compatible with all membrane types and Avista’s complete line of RoQuest® organic coagulants.

Performance

• Scale Inhibition:
  • CaCO₃ (CCPP ≤900, LSI ≤2.8)
  • CaSO₄ (3.0 x Ksp)
  • BaSO₄ (10⁵ x Ksp)
  • SrSO₄ (20 x Ksp)
  • CaF₂ (1000 x Ksp)
  • SiO₂ (120 ppm)
• Other Benefits:
  • Highly effective at low dose rates in a wide range of feedwater types and pH ranges.
  • Compatible with polyelectrolytes.
  • Provides both scale and inorganic fouling control.

Application

• Injection Point: Injected upstream of the membrane system and, where possible, upstream of cartridge filters.

Dosing Guidelines

• Typical Dosage Range: 2 to 5 ppm.
• Custom Dosing: A site-specific dose can be determined using the Avista Advisor computer program. Contact Avista customer service for customized dosing instructions.
• Consequences of Improper Dosing: Over or underdosing may cause unnecessary membrane system fouling.

Dilution

• Formulation: Formulated to be injected neat.
• Dilution Water: If dilution is required, use demineralized or RO permeate water. Softened water may be substituted if these are unavailable.
• Minimum Solution Strength: The dilution should not result in a solution strength of less than 10% to protect the internal bacteriostat.

Specifications

• Appearance: Clear, yellow liquid
• pH (2% solution): 5.0 – 6.5
• Specific Gravity @ 20°C: 1.10 ± 0.05

Packaging and Storage

• Standard Packaging Formats:
  • Americas: Pails (45 lbs), Drums (500 lbs), IBC’s (totes) (2500 lbs)
  • EMEA: Pails (23 kgs), Drums (230 kgs), IBC’s (totes) (1100 kgs)
• Custom Packaging: Available on request.
• Bulk Delivery: Information on drumless or bulk tanker delivery is available on request.
