Sodium Thiosulfate – 99% Purity per kg
Sodium Thiosulfate – 99% Purity per kg
Our Sodium Thiosulfate is a high-purity (99%) solution that’s essential for neutralizing chlorine and chloramine in aquarium and aquaculture systems. It’s the foundation of nearly every dechlorinator on the market, making it a must-have for routine maintenance and emergency dechlorination.
Key Uses & Benefits:
-
Dechlorination 💧
Sodium thiosulfate effectively neutralizes harmful chlorine and chloramine in tap water, making it safe for aquatic environments. It’s ideal for water changes or whenever tap water is introduced into the system. -
Emergency Use 🚨
Keep sodium thiosulfate on hand for emergencies involving over-chlorination. Rapid action can prevent stress or harm to fish and other aquatic life. -
General Maintenance 🛠️
Regular use during water changes protects biofilters and aquatic life from chlorine-related damage, maintaining a stable and healthy environment.
Suggested Dosage:
- Starting Dose: Use 0.1 grams of sodium thiosulfate per 1 ppm of chlorine in the source water.
-
Dosage Calculation:
- Measure chlorine in ppm (parts per million), which equals milligrams per liter (mg/L).
- Multiply the ppm value by the total number of liters in your system to get the total milligrams of chlorine present.
- Divide the result by 1000 to convert milligrams to grams of sodium thiosulfate required.
Example Calculation:
- If your source water contains 2 ppm of chlorine and your system holds 500 liters:
- 2 ppm (mg/L) x 500 liters = 1000 mg of chlorine
- 1000 mg ÷ 1000 = 1 gram of sodium thiosulfate needed.
Important Notes:
- Chloramine Treatment: When neutralizing chloramine, ammonia is released as a byproduct. Always monitor ammonia levels after treatment and apply ammonia management techniques if necessary.
- Always Test & Verify: Use chlorine test strips to measure chlorine levels before dosing and after treatment to ensure complete dechlorination.
With our premium Sodium Thiosulfate, you can ensure safe, chlorine-free water for your aquatic systems. Whether for routine maintenance or emergency use, this product offers reliable, precise chlorine neutralization. 🐠💧
