Tri-Dex ESP Electronic Air Cleaner Liquid Detergent

Engineered Solutions For Clean Air
Tri-Dex is a heavy duty, concentrated alkaline liquid detergent formulation developed specifically for removal of stubborn airborne deposits that coat exposed ionizing/collecting elements of electronic air cleaners. Deposits to be removed include tars from tobacco smoke, dirt, grease, dust and other tenacious particulate matter which ordinarily are difficult to penetrate and make soluble with other common commercial detergents.

Applications

  • Electronic Air Cleaner
  • Air Conditioning Coils
  • Aluminum Parts
  • Pre-filters
  • Range Hoods, Fans
  • Registers, Dampers, Floors
  • Stoves, Ovens, Grill
Applications Guidelines
Detergent: Used For:
Tri-Dex ESP 1000 General Purpose Cleaning
Tri-Dex ESP 5000 Difficult Cleaning
Tri-Dex ESP 9000 Heavy Duty Cleaning

How It Works

An electronic air cleaner is designed to trap airborne particulate matter as it passes through a series of alternately charged aluminum plates. Periodically, these collecting components must be washed to remove these deposits so the air cleaner can continue to operate at designed efficiencies. Some small ionizing/collecting cells may be removed for periodic manual cleaning; however, most modular ionizing collecting cells for commercial, industrial, and marine air cleaners are designed with integral washing systems. Typically, a metered flow of liquid detergent and hot water is added during this cleaning cycle.

Methods of Use
Due to the varying types and amounts of
soil loading, cleaning procedures vary from application to application. Therefore, some trial and error may be required to establish optimum cleaning procedures. Generally, washing with hot, high pressure water
(not to exceed 150°F) and Tri-Dex produces best results. Recommended use is to dilute Tri-Dex with water in a range from one part ESP detergent to 10-20 parts of water. Where deposits are particularly heavy and tenacious, concentrated solution of one part detergent to five parts water can be initially applied to wet and penetrate deposits. This solution should be allowed to remain from two to ten minutes followed with clear water rinse. Where available, use of hot water and high pressure cleaning equipment is required for optimum cleaning efficiency.

CAUTION: Tri-Dex contains strong alkaline silicates. Concentrated Tri-Dex may cause skin irritation or damage to eyes. It is harmful if swallowed. Therefore, avoid contact with clothing, skin and eyes and do not take internally. In case of contact with skin, flush exposed surface immediately with water for 15 minutes and get immediate medical attention. If swallowed, drink large quantities of water or milk. Call physician immediately.
