acide chlorhydrique, Hydrochloric Acid (Muriatic acid) for reducing pool water pH. For use in commercial pools, and pools with automatic acid dosing equipment (Click here for details). 20 kg drum.
Do not store in your pump house - risk of corrosion of all metal fittings.
ATTENTION
"Fais ce qu'il faut, ajoute de l'acide à l'eau" est un vieil adage enseigné dans les cours de chimie dès l'école primaire. Vous versez toujours les acides dans l'eau plutôt que l'inverse, car il est beaucoup plus probable que le liquide versé éclabousse le bécher et se dépose sur vos vêtements.
Mais la raison de le faire n'est pas simplement liée aux éclaboussures en soi : si vous ajoutez de l'eau à l'acide, les premières gouttes d'eau réagiront complètement et de manière exothermique avec l'acide, le faisant très probablement bouillir. Si, d'un autre côté, vous ajoutez de l'acide à l'eau, l'acide réagit complètement avec l'eau et se dissipe "faites comme vous devriez, ajoutez de l'acide à l'eau" est un vieux dicton dans les cours de chimie. Vous versez toujours les acides dans l'eau plutôt que l'inverse, car il est beaucoup plus probable que le liquide versé éclabousse le bécher et se dépose sur vos vêtements.

Shipping
This liquid acid product c(hydrochloic acid / muriatic acid) can only be delivered for a minmum of 2 x 20 Kg drums, and only in the following provinces:
- Khon Kaen
- Nong Bua Lamphu
- Nong Khai
- Udon Thani
Using
NOTE
- Drums connected to the automatic dosage pump and reservee drums must not be stored in the equipment shed as the fumes will cause corrosion. Feed the delivery pipe through a small hole in the wall and store the drum outside, preferably under a well ventillated weatherproof enclosure and out of reach of childfen.
- Wear eye protection, rubber gloves, and a face mask when handling hdrochloric acid.
- Acid supplied in this concentration must be diluted with about 10% water before use especially when using with peristaltic pumps and chlorinators with built-in pumps such as the Zodiac TRi-pH
- Mixing: Think "AAA" for: ALWAYS ADD THE ACID to the water., or "Do what you oughta - add acid to water""
The pH level in your pool should be at a pH level of 7.2 - 7.6 . Chlorine is about 10 times more effective at sanitizing your water when the pH is at 7.2 than for example 8.2. Most often you'll find the pH level is high; pour diluted Hydrochloric acid directly into the deep end of the pool while the pool pump is on, and the water is circulating.
