Corrosion

Steel Parts Cleaning
Steel parts became more corroded when using Tijuana water vs Los Angeles water as well as having a more uniform coating of phosphate with L.A. water.  Parts should not be rinsed as the phosphate coating left on from the cleaner will help make a superior bond.  
Stainless Steel, Alumimum, Steel Fasteners
11 tests were completed, including black spot removal, solvent removal, rust removal.  Rusting and pitting could be prevented using O.C.S. cleaner.  O.C.S. non-foaming Immersion Cleaner could be used at the same dilution rations and temperatures,with the same results in a high pressure washer with the exception of rust and black spot removal & requires ultrasonic.
Flux Removal, Paint Adhesion
Removal of oil from capacitors & replacing vapor degreaser, using jet washer & O.C.S. non-foaming Hot Immersion Cleaner, non flammable, fully aqueous cleaner with built in rust inhibitor.  5 tests were performed to see how long a part can survive at higher temperatures and longer duration in solutions, for oil removal and amount of flux removal (if any),  and to see how quickly the process will remove oils only.  Capacitors can be cleaned in 3 minutes at 120° using O.C.S. Cleaner and a jet washer.  Parts were not rinsed in order to give better paint adhesion.  drying is important.
O.C S. has the proper equipment and cleaning solutions for jets and capacitors to ensure cost effective, safe, and precise cleaning.   O.C.S. cleaners and degreasers are completely recyclable, and we carry parts washers of all sizes.  Contact Us for the right cleaning system that will save you money.
