Technical Bulletin
DESCRIPTION :
RXSOL ORG 80 is an ultra pure, biodegradable water-based detergent which has been developed by RXMarine 's R & D Team to provide maximum possible cleaning efficiency from a non-solvent formulation. RXSOL ORG 80 is the new water-based cleaner for on-line and off-line compressor cleaning against which the cost and performance of all other water-based cleaners will now be challenged.
RXSOL ORG 80 was developed to give the maximum possible cleaning efficiency and effectiveness from a non-solvent chemical. When developing and testing RXSOL ORG 80, Rx Marine International 'S technical Team evaluated all other leading non-solvent water-based chemicals to make sure that RXSOL ORG 80 would have superior cleaning qualities. This resulted in a non-hazardous, user-friendly and highly biodegradable water-based cleaner which now sets the standard against which the performance and cost effectiveness of all other true nonsolvent water-based gas turbine compressor cleaners can be judged.
APPLICATION :
RXSOL ORG 80 can be used with any on-line/off-line injection system but for optimum cleaning results and economic usage of chemicals, Rx Marine International offers a full range of patented manual or fully automatic atomising injection systems to suit any engine type.
DOSE :
ON-LINE CLEANING
Is normally performed by mixing one part RXSOL ORG 80 concentrate with 1:4 parts of water into a stable solution. RXSOL ORG 80 -Super Concentrate is to be mixed in a 1:19 dilution. Use demineralised water as specified by the engine manufacturer, typically <11µS/cm. The volume of chemical solution needed per wash and the optimum cleaning frequency will depend upon engine size, operating environment and fouling tendency. It is recommended that a post rinse is performed to ensure that the nozzle system is cleaned and ready for next operation.
OFF-LINE, CRANK WASHING
Concentrated RXSOL ORG 80 is normally mixed with 1:4 parts of good quality water. RXSOL ORG 80 Super Concentrate is to be mixed in a 1:19 dilution. The solution is injected at cranking speed, allowed to soak for 20 to 30 minutes then thoroughly rinsed off at cranking speed with good quality water acceptable to the engine manufacturer. RXSOL ORG 80 can be used without dilution for offline cleaning, providing a superb cleaning result for heavily fouled compressors.
ANTIFREEZE
Add antifreeze below +10ºC, RXSOL ORG 80 is compatible with Methanol, Propylene Glycol, Ethylene Glycol. Rx Marine International manufacture a superior freeze point depressant, RXSOL Antifreezing Liquid, please contact Rx Marine International for further information.

FEATURES and BENEFITS
- Safely and effectively cleans compressors on-line when running at any speed and load.
- Extremely effective non-solvent cleaner.
- Meets the most stringent requirements of gas turbine manufacturers.
- Ideal for light and frequent on-line washing of any type of industrial, marine or aviation gas turbine to maintain in-service output and fuel efficiency.
- On-line cleaning reduces damaging shutdown/start-up thermal cycles and starter wear and tear.
- Ideal for off-line cleaning due to high biodegradability.
- Non-flammable.
- Mixes readily with most antifreeze agents to allow low ambient temperature on-line/off-line cleaning.
- Supplied in concentrated form to reduce transport and handling costs and minimise storage requirements.
- Can be supplied as wipes for cleaning many other gas turbine part .

IMPORTANT ECOLOGICAL NOTES
RXSOL ORG 80 is a safe and highly biodegradable chemical. However for off-line, crank-wash cleaning all chemical solution and rinse water drainage should be collected and disposed of properly no matter what type of chemical (Solvent based or detergent based) is being used. Always adhere to the local & national regulations.
