Closed recirculating heating systems: pre-commission biocidal product flushing of new or existing pipework systems (heating and chilling pipework) includes used or new structural pipework built on industrial building projects. The biocidal product is used to control the growth of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, fungi and biofilm in the circulating water of closed systems. Closed systems are less susceptible to corrosion, scaling and biological fouling than open systems. However microbial problems can occur, if the system is left filled and untreated. This is due to the presence of nitrite and glycols used as nutrients by microbes.

— 
Use of a dosing device;
— 
Regular cleaning of equipment and work area;
— 
Avoidance of contact with contaminated tools and objects;
—

5.   GENERAL DIRECTIONS FOR USE OF THE META SPC 1

5.1.    Instructions for use

— 
The duration of the effect is dependent on the performance requirements of the customer for their preserved material and on the specific ingredients composition and pH of the preserved product.
— 
Always read the label or leaflet before use and follow all the instructions provided.
— 
Respect the conditions of use of the product (concentration, contact time, temperature, pH, etc.)

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES DURING STORAGE AND TRANSPORT:

Keep in a well-ventilated place. The product as supplied may evolve gas (largely carbon dioxide) slowly. To prevent the buildup of pressure the product is packaged in specially vented containers, where necessary. Keep this product in the original container when not in use. Container must be stored and transported in an upright position to prevent spilling the contents through the vent, where fitted.
