AQUI-S: AQUI-S Antifoam
Applications
- Live Transportation
- Fish tanks
- Aquariums
AQUI-S® Antifoam is a 20 percent active, food grade, silicone emulsion. This antifoam can be used to limit the generation of foam in both fresh water and seawater aquaculture operations.
AQUI-S® Antifoam is effective at very low concentrations. One to 2 ppm concentrations are normally sufficient to control foaming in most aquaculture systems.
AQUI-S® Antifoam complies with FDA Regulation 21 CFR 173.340, which covers secondary direct food additives used as defoaming agents and allows concentrations of up to 10 ppm of the active silicone in foods.
Instructions for Use
Shake well before use.
If water is well agitated add 1 or 2 drops per 100 L of water directly to the water column.
For water that is not well agitated, pre-dilute with 100 parts water before adding to the water column.
Add antifoam to the water with slow mixing.
Do not store pre-diluted material.
Store below 35C.
