One gallon (128 fl oz) treats approximately 300 gallons of make-up water, producing about 1000 ppm nitrite; dosing can be adjusted to reach recommended ranges for adequate to optimal protection. Use alongside regular water testing to maintain the right inhibitor concentration for your system’s materials and operating conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does ProTech 300 protect my boiler from rust and corrosion?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProTech 300 introduces nitrite ions that form a protective layer on metal surfaces, slowing electrochemical reactions that cause rust and corrosion.
