This can be valuable in the initial selection of a heater sheath material to be used with a listed corrodant. Final selection, however, should be made based upon the specific exposure conditions, recommendations of the corrosive agent's manufacturer and preliminary testing. Conditional Performance is dependent upon specific application conditions such as solution concentration and temperature. This solution involves a mixture of various chemical compounds whose identity and proportions are unknown or subject to change without our knowledge. Check supplier to confirm choice of sheath material plus alternate sheath materials that may be used.
Chemical composition varies widely.
Check supplier for specific recommendations. Direct immersion heaters not practical. Use clamp-on heaters on outside surface of cast iron pot. See suggested watt density chart. Remove crusts at liquid level.
