Descaling

• Use a nitric acid (HNO3) or citric acid

solution: 1.5% concentration by weight, max.

temperature 65°C (1.5% by weight corresponds

to 1.75 l of 62% HNO3 for 100 litres of water) or

a polyphosphate solution (NaPO4 or Na3PO4):

1.5% max. concentration by weight, max.

temperature 50°C.

Degreasing

• Degrease stainless steel or titanium plates

with a sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution: 1.5%

max. concentration by weight, max. temperature

65°C (1.5% by weight corresponds to 3.75 l of

30% NaOH for 100 litres of water).

• Do not use hydrochloric acid or water with

a chloride content of over 300 ppm to clean

stainless steel plates.

• Do not use phosphoric acid to clean titanium

plates.

Deposits:

Calcium

Recommended detergents: 4% nitric acid

solution at 60°C max. - 4% citric acid solution at

60°C max.

Oils and greases

Recommended detergents: paraffin or kerosene

(as these fluids may damage NBR and EPDM

gaskets, limit the contact time to no more than

30 minutes)

Sludges, metal oxides

Recommended detergents: 8% nitric acid

solution at 60°C max. - 4% citric acid solution at

60°C max.

Organic matter

Recommended detergents: 2% sodium hydroxide

solution at 40°C max.

5.6 - Liquid penetrant testing

• Corrosion, galvanic coupling and erosion

can create holes in the plates. As such damage

is not always visible to the naked eye, we

recommend performing liquid Atlantic tests

to check for holes or microcracks. Atlantic

technical support team can advise you on the

appropriate products.
