Purogene® is the most effective, fast acting, broad-spectrum antimicrobial available.
airline-2Purogene® is a highly refined blend of oxychloro species containing purified sodium chlorite. When activated, chlorine dioxide is produced, greatly enhancing Purogene®’s antimicrobial activity. Purogene® displays broad spectrum antimicrobial activity, proven effective against E. Coli 0157:H7, Salmonella, Listeria, Staphylococcus, Aspergillus, and Pseudomonas, Legionella among others. This product is especially suited for the removal and subsequent control of biofilm.

Purogene® has been shown to be more effective than other common sanitizers including quaternary ammonia, Iodophors, Peracetic acid and sodium hypochlorite (chlorine). Purogene® provides a comprehensive antimicrobial intervention program. Purogene® has major advantages in providing long term residual antimicrobial effect over Ozone and Peroxide based products that are short-lived in systems with organic load.

Directions
WATER TANK DISINFECTION
Drain water storage tank.
Inspect tank for foreign materials and sediment.
Clean out and flush tank with clean potable water.
For each 50 gallons of disinfection solution, mix the following:
– 16 fluid ounces of Purogene®
– 2 ounces of citric acid
– mix and allow 5 minutes for activation to occur
– Dilute activated concentrate with two gallons of clean potable water.
Fill aircraft water tank
Open all water discharge ports for a short time to allow the treatment solution to reach and flow through these ports.
Close ports and allow treatment solution to stand for one hour.
Drain solution from tank. DO NOT FLUSH TANK.
Refill tank with potable water treated with 5ppm Purogene®
