Fact Sheet

Steamate* PAS6071

Total boiler system corrosion inhibitor

Unique blend of Polyamine and Neutralizing
amine corrosion inhibitors

Protects feedwater, boiler and steam conden-
sate system surfaces against both carbonic acid
and dissolved oxygen corrosion

Provides effective coverage of the entire steam
boiler system from a single feedwater injection
point

Reduces chemical inventory and simplifies
treatment program monitoring & control

Reduces total cost of ownership thru improved
corrosion control

Description and Use

Steamate* PAS6071 is a blend of a multifunctional,
volatile, amine corrosion inhibitor (the “Polyamine”
component), and a specific blend of neutralizing
amines selected for effective coverage of complex
steam distribution systems.
Steamate PAS6071 protects metal surfaces from
corrosion via multiple mechanisms. The volatile Pol-
yamine corrosion inhibitor forms a barrier film on all
metal surfaces. Thus, the deaerator, feedwater pip-
ing, boiler, steam piping and condensate return pip-
ing are all protected from oxygen and carbonic acid
corrosion. The product also contains a blend of
neutralizing amines, which can neutralize acidic
contaminants and elevate the pH of the condensate
into the mildly alkaline range, where the protective
metal oxides are most stable and adherent.

Improved corrosion control reduces the potential for
boiler tube failures by reducing the level of corrosion
product ingress from the steam condensate and
feedwater circuits, and the resulting metal oxide

deposition on internal boiler heat transfer surfac-
es. It also maintains optimum fuel-to-steam effi-
ciency by maintaining clean heat transfer
surfaces, and minimizes disruptive outages and
maintenance costs associated with corrosion-
related failures of steam condensate and feedwa-
ter piping, economizers, condensers and other
heat exchangers, steam traps and other associat-
ed equipment.

Typical Applications

Steamate PAS6071 is designed for application to
steam boilers. This technology is not approved for
use where the steam contacts food products or is
used for direct humidification of indoor air.

Treatment and Feeding Requirements

Feed Point – Steamate PAS6071 is designed to be
fed neat (undiluted) into the storage section of the
deaerator below the waterline.
Feedrate – Use in accordance with control proce-
dures GE establishes for a specific system. The
range of application is between 5 and 40 ppm
(mg/L) as Steamate PAS6071 to the feedwater.
Dilution – Steamate PAS6071 should be fed neat
directly out of the shipping container. It is not de-
signed for dilution or blending with other treat-
ment products.
