ProCleanse-RP™

1 of 1 products in this brand

ProCleanse-RP™ is an all metal safe combination cleaner and rust inhibitor capable of removing all types of oily soils; vegetable oils, animal fats, petroleum products and many other common industrial soils while protecting ferrous metals against corrosion. ProCleanse-RP eliminates the need to use a tandem cleaner and designated rust inhibitor by providing both in one easy to use aqueous product. For use on all metals, glass or plastic, ProCleanse-RP is low foaming at temperatures above 130°F, providing superior in-house corrosion protection.

Applications
ProCleanse-RP is especially recommended for use in multi-stage washer systems. Use in soak tanks or spray washers. Recommended for all common methods including ultrasonic cleaning where superior cleaning and corrosion inhibiting is required.
Temperature & Time Required
  • Many common soils can be removed “cold” at ambient temperatures. ProCleanse-RP is most effective at temperatures between 125 to 150°F. Some dirt is removed instantly on contact. The time required for equipment varies greatly. Additional time may be required for severe conditions. When speed is not important, energy to heat may be saved by extending the time.
  • In all applications, solution life can be prolonged by using filters in return lines, by removing sludge from the bottom of the tank, and by skimming floating oil from the top. When possible, cut costs by storing used solution in a holding tank and re-use.
Recommended Dilution
Dilute in water to suit the job. The quantity required depends on the quality and type of dirt, porosity of the surface, temperature, soak time allowed, and the degree of agitation applied by the cleaning method. Recommended dilutions are:
  • For light duty shop soils such as cutting oils, coolants and/or short term RP use: 2 to 4% by volume.
  • For heavier oils, greases and drawing compounds and/or longer term RP use: 5 to10% by volume.
In recirculation systems, strength gradually decreases during use. Add ProCleanse-RP as needed to rise to desired strength. A test kit is available for checking solution strength by simplified titration.

Properties

Physical Form
Performance Properties
ProCleanse-RP contains detergents, chelating and sequestering agents which provide: quick penetration, dispersion and emulsification of oily soils. ProCleanse-RP is an oil rejecting cleaner for longer bath and easier oil removal. The built in corrosion inhibitor leaves a mono-molecular, nearly imperceptible film protecting ferrous metals in-house, up to long term storage requirements. The liquid form of ProCleanse-RP makes it easier, safer, and more efficient to use than powder compounds, a liquid can be fed through a closed system directly from the shipping drum to the cleaning operation. This eliminates the hazardous mixing of alkaline powders with water and it can be automatically metered to deliver a consistently accurate dilution.
