Code | Package: 5/MYAP20 | 5 l canister
Important note: Shake the container well before use. Mayline AP20 can NOT be mixed with glycols, antifreezes or other chemical products. After the sealing process has been completed, the Mayline AP20 must be immediately removed from the system. The recovered product can be reused various times. Protect the product from frost. Application time Minimum 24 hours with pressure at least 2 bar higher than the normal operating pressure.
Instructions for use: Mayline AP20 self-sealing liquid contains selective cellulose fi bres which are deposited over the leak, thereby providing a fi ltering effect that reduces the flow. This allows the chemical elements crystallize externally and harden defi nitively over time. 1. Preliminary phase Close off and empty the defective line. Collect the water and measure it to determine the necessary amount of product. Close of the valves beneath the wash basin, remove the tap and seal off with a stopper. Perlators, screens, fi lters and counters must be removed. Seal off the access tubes for any dishwashers and washing machines. Rinse the system out well and remove any calcium deposits using Mayline S26 liquid descaler. 2. Operative phase Pressurize the circuit to be sealed with AP20 to about 5 – 7 bar using a loading pump. The Mayline AP20 must come out of the leak in order to crystallize inside the line. In the case of particularly humid environments, Mayline AP20 requires at least 24 hours under hot conditions to set. At room temperature, this time must be extended to 2 or 3 days. In the case of pipes with tight external coverings which do not allow air to pass, sealing is not always possible (ex. a covered copper pipe with a leak where the covering is glued). After the sealing process the product has to be collected, all working tools has to be cleaned accurately. The product can be reused many times.
