VpCI® Iguana
Description: VpCI® Iguana is a ready-to-use, waterborne corrosion inhibitor for use in operating hot water systems or wet layup of standby boilers. By combining contact and Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors, VpCI® Iguana protects multi-metal surfaces below and above the waterline, all with one
easy application.
Unlike traditional layup strategies that require maintenance of high pH and regular testing of oxygen scavenger levels, VpCI® Iguana requires very little monitoring. Finally, VpCI® Iguana allows for quick and cost-effective startup, as it is entirely compatible with other water treatment chemicals and there is no need to drain, clean, or flush the boiler prior to bringing it back online.
