Legionella control and disinfection in drinking, bath and shower water with chlorine dioxide is a simple and effective option.

Two-component peroxide sulphate chlorite process

Chlorine dioxide offers numerous positive properties and minimises the risk compared to other methods.

  • High stability of the solution, up to 6 weeks
  • Low chlorate content 
  • Gentle on materials
  • Approved according to TBDV
  • Safe from an occupational health and safety perspective
  • No use of hydrochloric acid
  • No risk of explosion
  • The individual components can be stored for a long time before activation
  • Simple dosing

 

Only when required is the second component (peroxodisulphate) dissolved with water in the delivery container to activate the two component system at the point of use and then added completely to the container of the first component (chlorite solution). After a reaction time of 24 hours at room temperature, the chlorine dioxide solution is ready for use and stable for approx. 6 weeks.
