Solus* AP Series An All-Polymer Internal Boiler Treatment Fact Sheet
Fact Sheet
Solus* AP Series
An All-Polymer Internal Boiler Treatment

Patented Boiler Terpolymer (BTP) provides highly
effective control of hardness and iron deposition

All-polymer treatment reduces the potential for
boiler tube failures due to waterside deposits

Enhanced rejection of iron, magnesium, and
silica contaminants to the blowdown translates
to cleaner, more efficient boilers

Easily tested product tracer for convenient feed
rate control
This results in significantly reduced scale potential
and cleaner heat transfer surfaces, especially during upsets in control or variations in feedwater
hardness.
Description and Use
Solus AP is the latest technological innovation in
boiler scale control and internal treatment from GE
Water & Process Technologies. This all-polymer
technology is designed to meet the deposit control
performance needs of modern low-to-intermediate
pressure steam boilers (up to 900 psig) and is a cost
effective, easy-to-use treatment in a stable, liquid
formulation.
The BTP contained in Solus AP is multifunctional and
limits deposits through its ability to:
1. Maintain incoming feedwater contaminants,
such as calcium and magnesium, in soluble
form for efficient rejection to the boiler blowdown;
2. Distort crystal growth, thus reducing the size of
particles that are formed;
3. Alter the surface charge of the suspended particles as well as the boiler tube surfaces, reducing the particle-particle attraction and the
attraction between particles and the boiler tube
walls.
Treatment and Feeding Requirements
Feed point - For systems with high-purity feedwater
(reverse osmosis or demineralized-quality make-up),
the recommended feed point for Solus AP is directly
into the boiler. In softened water systems, it is recommended that the product be fed to the boiler
feedwater downstream of the boiler feed pumps.
Feed rate - Proper treatment levels for Solus AP depend on many factors specific to a given installation. The product should be used in accordance
with the control procedures that GE establishes for
a specific application.
Dilution - Solus AP may be fed neat or diluted to
any convenient strength with good quality condensate, demineralized water, or feedwater.
Equipment - Chemical feed should be through a
304 or 316 stainless steel injection nozzle.
