Sobo LF

Tunnel & Spray Wash Cleaning - Low Foaming

A low foaming, quick break, inhibited and biodegradable cleaning solution designed for use in high pressure spray tunnels, power wash systems and ultrasonic cleaning machines.

Offering no hazard to painted surfaces, acrylics, non-ferrous metals and soft sealants, Sobo LF leaves surfaces clean and oil free.

  • Quick break
  • Low foaming
  • Biodegradable
  • Rust inhibited (meets AMS 1526B)
  • Separator friendly

Sobo LF calibration in washer systems

We have devised a simple working method for the calibration of Sobo LF in operating washer systems based upon refractrometry.

Based on our laboratory findings using a series of dilutions of Sobo LF, we would suggest maintenance levels based upon refractive index are:

  • 4% solution − contribution from Sobo LF > 0.5% Brix
  • 5% solution − contribution from Sobo LF > 0.6% Brix

Note

Sampling of the machine holding tank would be critical due to the sensitivity required. Refractometry also needs to be carried out carefully at constant temperature and with attention to cleanliness in order to obtain meaningful results.
