Dacid NF SANS1828 Food-Grade Low-Foam Acid Descaler & CIP Cleaner 5L (PROFESSIONAL RANGE)

Strip away heavy mineral deposits, stubborn milk stone, beer stone and protein stains effortlessly using Dacid NF 5L. This high-specification acidic descaler is specifically engineered with an advanced non-foaming / low-foaming (NF) chemical profile, making it the premier choice for enclosed recirculation loops, automated machinery and high-pressure cleaning systems operating within food-sensitive zones.

Formulated to meet rigid health, safety and export compliance guidelines, Dacid NF fully complies with the SANS 1828 South African National Standard for chemical detergents used in the food industry. Its specialized low-foam surfactant technology ensures steady liquid flow through enclosed lines, preventing air locks, cavitating pumps and dangerous gas or pressure buildup inside machinery. It rapidly dissolves calcium scale, uric acid encrustation, rust layers and surface oxides, leaving food-contact metals pristine and residue-free. The highly concentrated bulk 5-litre container delivers exceptional square-footage and volumetric coverage, providing an unmatched cost-effective descaling asset for dairies, breweries, beverage bottling plants and automated food factories.

Key Features & Benefits

• SANS 1828 Certified Food-Safe: Formally tested and certified chemical profile ensures total legal compliance for descaling enclosed pipelines, tanks and automated wash loops.
• Low-Foam (NF) CIP Efficiency: Engineered explicitly for Clean-In-Place systems to eliminate sudsing inside pumps, storage tanks and recirculation pipelines.
• Aggressive Mineral Descaling: Rapidly breaks down thick limescale, hard-water mineral deposits, milkstone, beerstone and oxidized rust layers on contact.
• Brightens Stainless Steel: Chemically strips away dull oxide films and surface stains, restoring original metal brilliance and sanitary smoothness to processing vessels.
• Advanced Low-Taint Formula: Formulated to rinse away completely with water, ensuring zero toxic chemical residues or heavy aromas are left behind on food-contact surfaces.
• Super Concentrated Bulk 5L Pack: Highly efficient bulk liquid pack that lowers your operational material cost per volume of industrial descaling solution.

Automated Food Industry Applications

Dacid NF is engineered for recirculation cleaning, pressure-washing and low-foam descaling of acid-resistant industrial equipment:

• Dairies & Cheesemaking: Circulating through automated milking parlours, pasteurizers, homogenization units and milk transfer lines.
• Breweries & Beverage Plants: Descaling bright beer tanks, fermentation vats, keg washers, syrup lines and automated bottle filling lines.
• Automated Kitchen Equipment: Descaling commercial dishwasher wash tanks, automated boiler systems, steam jacketed kettles and industrial flight-type washers.
• Abattoirs & Processing: Flushing through closed piping systems, grease traps and automated meat box washing tunnels.

Recommended Dilution Guide

• Clean-In-Place (CIP) Recirculation: Mix 50ml to 200ml of Dacid NF per 10 litres of water (0.5% to 2.0% volume solution) depending on initial scale severity. Circulate at recommended temperatures (typically 40°C to 60°C) for 15 to 30 minutes, drain and rinse thoroughly.
• Automated Machine Washers: Program automated electronic micro-dosing systems to inject 2ml to 5ml per 1 litre of water during the dedicated acid-wash or rinse cycle.
• Heavy-Duty Manual Soak Descaling: Mix 1-part Dacid NF with 5 to 10 parts water in an acid-resistant plastic container to soak encrusted valves, nozzle fittings or stainless-steel hooks.
• Note: Always pre-rinse the target system with water to remove loose organic soils before initiating the acid descaling cycle.

⚠️ Critical Safety & Handling Information

CORROSIVE ACIDIC CHEMICAL. CAUSES SEVERE SKIN BURNS AND EYE DAMAGE. This product is for commercial, automated and industrial use only. Always wear heavy-duty acid-resistant gloves, full eye protection face shields, long sleeves and safety boots during handling or mixing.

NEVER mix Dacid NF with chlorine bleach, sodium hypochlorite, ammonia, alkaline degreasers or any other chemical compounds, as doing so will instantly release lethal, highly toxic chlorine gases or cause violent chemical reactions. Always add acid to water, never water to acid when mixing. Ensure the area is thoroughly ventilated. Keep securely sealed and stored strictly out of reach of children and untrained individuals.
