CARUS™ 3000 Water Treatment Chemical Series

Product Description

The CARUS™ 3000 water treatment chemical series is formulated to provide effective corrosion control across a wide range of water qualities. These zinc orthophosphate products offer dual protection by forming both anodic and cathodic barriers on metal surfaces, including unlined cast iron, copper, and lead pipes. This dual-layer approach prevents metal release into the water, helping to eliminate red water complaints and ensuring compliance with the US EPA Lead and Copper Rule. CARUS 3000 products are liquid concentrates with exceptional purity, clarity, and stability, and can be easily applied using chemical metering pumps.

Applications

The CARUS 3000 series is effective in both potable and industrial water systems for:

  • Dual-layer corrosion control with anodic and cathodic protection
  • Reducing red water complaints by preventing metal release
  • Ensuring compliance with EPA Lead and Copper Rule in water distribution systems
