Potable water treatment that stops red water at the pipe.
Potable Water Stabilizer, dosed continuously into the fresh-water supply, cuts rust and iron release from tanks and pipework. Formulated and batch-tested in our own plants in Fujairah and Athens.
What are you treating?
Why it matters
Red water starts in the pipework, not the supply.
Fresh water taken on in port or made on board can leave the tank clear and still reach the tap red. Rust, iron and corrosion by-products from the ship’s own tanks and lines do the colouring, so treat the system, not just the source.
Red water
Discoloured water at the tap is the first thing the crew notice, and the first complaint.
Iron and rust
Iron and rust settle in tanks and lines, then break loose again and colour the water.
Pipe corrosion
Corrosion thins pipe walls from the inside long before a leak shows.
Tanks and equipment
Storage tanks, pumps and hydrophores wear faster when the water attacks them.

Dose by flow rate
Match the pump to the flow.
Set the metering pump from the fresh-water flow rate. Start at the low end and move up if iron or colour readings stay high.
| Flow rate | At 2 ppm | At 10 ppm |
|---|---|---|
| 10 m³/h | 20 ml/h | 100 ml/h |
| 25 m³/h | 50 ml/h | 250 ml/h |
| 50 m³/h | 100 ml/h | 500 ml/h |
| 100 m³/h | 200 ml/h | 1,000 ml/h |
| 200 m³/h | 400 ml/h | 2,000 ml/h |
Common questions
Dosing, monitoring and packs.
2 to 10 ppm, depending on water quality, how severe the corrosion is and the iron level. At 10 m³/h of flow that is 20 to 100 ml an hour.
Into the potable water supply line, the storage tank inlet or the distribution system, through a metering pump so it mixes evenly.
Check iron and water colour routinely, keep pH under control, and watch conductivity, total dissolved solids and corrosion indicators.
Continuous. Steady dosing keeps red water and corrosion under control across the whole distribution network.

Order
Tell us the system, we will tell you the dose.
Send the fresh-water flow rate, the tank capacity and where the red water shows up. We will come back with a dosing rate and a price, usually within one working day.
