ARC 360

Advanced Safe Descaling Solution ARC 360

Overview of ARC 360
ARC 360 is a versatile advanced safe descaling solution designed for various applications on board. This innovative formulation acts as an acid replacement for both manual and cleaning-in-place (CIP) descaling operations, effectively addressing scale buildup in numerous types of equipment, including vacuum toilet pipework, plate heat exchangers, evaporators, coolers, and fresh water generators. 

Powerful Degreasing Capability
One of the standout features of ARC 360 is its potent degreasing ability. Unlike other descalers that require a separate degreasing step, ARC 360 can tackle oil and grease contamination simultaneously, streamlining the cleaning process and saving time.

Optimized Descaling Efficiency

As alkaline scales dissolve, the pH of the solution increases, which can reduce descaling effectiveness. However, ARC 360 allows for optimization by adding more of the product as alkalinity rises, ensuring continuous and efficient descaling. 

Corrosion Protection

ARC 360 is formulated with a complementary corrosion inhibitor to safeguard exposed metal surfaces, welds, joints, and areas subjected to heat stress in piping systems. This feature enhances asset protection, particularly in situations where frequent descaling is necessary. 

Environmentally Friendly Composition

Classified as non-harmful to the environment, ARC 360 is supplied in a concentrated form that can be easily diluted on board vessels or at the point of use. This not only reduces the amount of water and plastic transported globally but also supports sustainable practices. 

User Safety

The unique formulation of ARC 360 ensures that users are protected from acid burns, making it significantly safer compared to alternative descaling products available in the market. 

The Importance of Descaling

Descaling is a critical maintenance process across various industries, as the accumulation of scale and mineral deposits can impair equipment performance, leading to reduced efficiency, higher energy consumption, and potential equipment failure. Traditional descaling methods often involve harmful chemicals, posing risks to both the environment and operators.

ARC 360, with its active ingredient Urea Hydrochloride, provides a safe and effective alternative for descaling, gaining popularity for its eco-friendly properties and enhanced user safety.

The Advantages of Descaling

Urea Hydrochloride offers several significant advantages as a descaling agent, primarily as a safer alternative to conventional descaling chemicals. Classified as a non-hazardous material, it presents minimal risk for operators during handling and application.

Unlike traditional descalers, Urea Hydrochloride does not emit harmful fumes and is non-corrosive to equipment and machinery, which helps mitigate the risk of damage and potential equipment failures.

Another notable benefit is its environmentally friendly nature. Traditional descaling agents can pose risks to the environment by contaminating water and soil. In contrast, Urea Hydrochloride is biodegradable and does not leave behind harmful residues. Its water-soluble property also simplifies safe disposal.

Moreover, Urea Hydrochloride can be a more cost-effective choice in the long term. While the initial purchase price may be slightly higher, it ultimately saves money for companies due to its lower corrosiveness, which leads to fewer repairs and replacements. Additionally, it requires less water and energy for flushing and cleaning.

As exemplified by products like ARC360, Urea Hydrochloride is a safe, effective, and environmentally conscious alternative to traditional descaling agents. With benefits that include enhanced safety, reduced environmental impact, and long-term cost savings, Urea Hydrochloride aligns well with the growing emphasis on sustainability and safety in various industries, making it an ideal choice for descaling operations.
