DIRECTIONS FOR USE/ APPLICATION RATES AND DOSAGE RATES

Direct Injection Method: Prepare 0.1-0.5 % cleaning solution with fresh water, leave the solution on the surface for 5-10 minutes than wipe away. Heat the solution to get better results up to 60°C. It is not corrosive so it can be used on every surface. Recirculation Method: Prepare 0.1-0.5 % cleaning solution with fresh water and circulate or spray with water jets to clean contaminated tank surfaces. Recirculate at least 3-4 hours around 30-60 °C. The solution can be re-used until it is no longer effective. After circulation make the test and rinse the tank with fresh or DI water depending on the next Cargo. For Veg-Palm Oil Cleaning : Circulate the tank with cold sea water 1.5 hours, than circulate the tank with hot sea water (50-60 o C ) for 1.5 hours. Finally, circulate the tank with “ER-APC EXTRA 200” 1 (One) hour around 40-50 C.

Finally, rinse the tank with plenty of hot fresh water around 30-40 minutes. For small residues and for last Hydro Carbon Free issues, usage will be around 0.1%. Afterwards tanks must be washed down with plenty of fresh water. For cleaning tuff cargo residues prepare a solution 5-10 % with hot fresh water and apply same procedures with spot cleaning. While cleaning and rinsing the tank surfaces, the efficiency of the solution can be increased by using warm water up to 60°C.
