Directions for use

Pre-cleaning of Tanks:

  • Before cleaning with Navaclean 850 it is recommended, for non-drying oils, to pre-wash the tanks with hot water at 50°C.
  • For drying oils and semi-drying oils, the pre-cleaning should be made with cold water, and it should be carried out immediately after completion of discharge of the cargo in order to retard the oxidation and hardening of oil residues.

  • Navaclean 850 should be recirculated as a 5% solution for a period of 2-6 hours. The water temperature should be approx. 35-60°C. After completion of the recirculation period the tanks must be rinsed thoroughly water. After chemical cleaning the tanks should be rinsed thoroughly with sea water, fresh water or di-water depending on availability and requirements.
