Reverse Osmosis Antiscalants - Scale
Inhibitor
Extonates - 607 Product Data Sheet
General Product Information
Extonates-607 is a multifunctional antiscalant for reverse
osmosis systems, highly effective in controlling soluble iron and
effective against calcium carbonate scale formation on membrane
surfaces.
Besides its excellent soluble iron
and calcium
carbonate scale inhibition properties Extonates-607 is
effectively controlling calcium fluoride and calcium phosphate scale
formation.
Extonates-607 has compatibility approvals from membrane
manufacturers.
All ingredients in Extonates-607 are certified to ANSI/NSF
Standard 60 for use in reverse osmosis systems producing potable
water.

Chemical Reactivity
Extonates-607 is not affected by chlorine or other oxidizing
biocides under normal conditions of use. Extonates-607 should
be injected in membrane systems after chlorine and sodium
metabisulfite treatment. Extonates-607 is not compatible with
residual cationic monomers from the pre-treatment.
Application and dosage level
Extonates-607 an aqueous solution of organic acids and is
corrosive in its concentrated form. Corrosion resistant dosing
equipment must therefore be used. Examples of suitable materials are
PVC, glass reinforced plastic or HDPE.
Recommended injection point is into the feedwater downstream of any
filtration equipment and cartridge filters.
Extonates-607 is miscible with water in all proportions. It
may be applied as the neat product, or as a solution in permeate
water. A minimum dosing solution strength of 10% w/w is recommended.
Extonates-607 should be dosed continuously, and
proportionately to the feed water flow, to maintain the recommended
dosage level.
The dosage level required is dependent on the quality of the feed
water and the saturation indices of the various scale forming
species present in the concentrated brine.
Recommended operation limits of the most relevant brine water
parameters :
-
silica : up to 240 ppm max (2XSI)
-
LSI : < 2.6
-
Soluble Iron : < 4 ppm max.
-
Calcium fluoride: 120 ppm max
-
Calcium Sulfate : up to 7,000 ppm
max.
-
Max recommended ppm in conc.: 40
ppm
Dose level projections and optimal
system recovery recommendations are available on request.
