DESCRIPTION:

ALKA-KLEEN - Alkaline cleaner is a unique blend of alkaline compounds andsurfactants. ALKA-KLEEN specifically remoes mild oils! dra"ing compounds!preseratie oils! and soil from steel surfaces! including #eat-treated fasteners byimmersion or by spray met#od. $#is cleaner float soils so t#at t#ey can be skimmedfrom t#e surface and s#ould be used "it# an oerflo" "eir for best results.

employed and t#e calculation of concentration in grams per litre "ill be9

oncentration (gliter) : 5 2 ml. of ,.1N 65780consumed

$#e millilitre of ,.1N 65780 is recorded as free alkalinity. Anot#er c#eck on t#econdition of t#e bat# is total alkalinity. $#e control procedure for total alkalinity is t#esame "it# free alkalinity e2cept t#e indicator is met#yl orange. $otal alkalinity is t#edirect measure of t#e amount of contamination of t#e bat#.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TOTAL ALKALINITY AND FREE ALKALINITY

$otal alkalinity free alkalinity ratio s#ould be maintained less t#an t"o (5) at all times.
