Storage
The quality is guaranteed for 18 months from the date of manufacture. EDE 159 must not be mixed with any other product. Below -5°C EDE 159 may form crystals. If crystallisation occurs agitate at 5°C or higher temperature until reconstituted.
Grinding of cements according to ENV 197-1, type I to V, and aluminous cements.
Directions for use
Dosage: The dosage range is from 0.2 kg to 0.8 kg/metric ton of material to be ground. The optimum dosage should be determined by industrials trials.
Warning: In curtains circumstances EDE 159may cause an increase in air contents. Trials should be conducted and air contents checked before full scale production is undertaken.
Procedure: EDE 159 is ready-to-use. A dosing pump is required to introduce the correct dosage into the mill. EDE 159 may be introduced directly into the mill or on to the feed conveyor belt.
Health and Safety: If EDE 159 comes in contact with skin, flush with water immediately. In case of contact with eyes, flush with water immediately and rinse with diluted boric acid solution; seek medical advice.
Cleaning: Spillage of EDE 159 can be removed with water (refer to Safety Data Sheet).
Over dosage: Dosages in excess of 1kg/metric ton should be avoided.
