Engineering summary from PDF text extraction for Vitec® 5100. Verify every value with the OEM datasheet.
Summary
Product identification
Vitec® 5100 is a broad-spectrum, liquid antiscalant and dispersant. It is a multicomponent formulation designed for preventing scale precipitation in larger systems and is particularly cost-effective in seawater and municipal reverse osmosis (RO) applications. Vitec 5100 is compatible with RoQuest® coagulants and certified by NSF International under NSF/ANSI Standard 60 for use in systems producing drinking water.
Operating limits
Feed water
- Highly effective at low dose rates in a wide variety of feedwaters and pH ranges.
- Compatible with polyamide and cellulose acetate RO membranes from all manufacturers.
Product water
- Certified by NSF International under NSF/ANSI Standard 60 for use in systems producing drinking water.
Dosing
- Typical Vitec 5100 dose ranges from 2-5 mg/l.
- A site-specific dose can be determined using the Avista Advisor software program.
- Inject upstream of the membrane system and, where possible, of cartridge filters.
Dilution
- Formulated to be injected neat.
- If dilution is required, use deionized water or RO permeate. Softened water may be substituted if deionized water or RO permeate is unavailable.
- Dilution should not result in a solution strength of less than 10% to protect the effectiveness of the internal bacteriostat.
Specifications
- Appearance: Clear, amber liquid
- pH (2% solution): 5.0-6.5

Performance benefits
- Powerful against scale formation including: Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃), Calcium Sulfate (CaSO₄), Barium Sulfate (BaSO₄), Strontium Sulfate (SrSO₄), Calcium Fluoride (CaF₂), and Silica (SiO₂).
- Highly effective at low dose rates.
- Controls scale and inorganic fouling.
- Compatible with polyamide and cellulose acetate RO membranes, polyelectrolyte, and RoQuest® coagulants.
