ECORR Systems provides Cortec® VpCI® water treatment products for boilers, steam and condensate systems, cooling towers, closed loops, hydrostatic testing, process water, equipment preservation, and industrial water systems.
As an Authorized Cortec® Distributor, ECORR Systems offers corrosion inhibitors, antiscalants, dispersants, oxygen scavengers, boiler additives, cooling-water treatments, hydrotest additives, and wet or dry layup products for ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Water systems may contain dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, chlorides, minerals, microorganisms, and other contaminants that contribute to corrosion, scale, deposits, and reduced heat-transfer efficiency.
Cortec® water treatment products use contact and, in selected formulations, Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor technology to help protect metal below the waterline, above the waterline, and near the liquid-vapor interface.
Boiler and condensate products help control corrosion associated with dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, acidic condensate, and changing operating conditions. Product selection depends on boiler pressure, temperature, feedwater quality, system design, metallurgy, and existing treatment chemistry.
Cooling-water products help manage corrosion, mineral scale, suspended deposits, and system cleanliness in open or closed cooling systems. Treatment programs should be matched to the makeup water, cycles of concentration, system metallurgy, and operating temperature.
Closed-loop treatments protect compatible steel, copper, brass, aluminum, galvanized steel, and other metals in heating, cooling, and glycol systems. Correct concentration and periodic monitoring are necessary to maintain protection.
Antiscalants help prevent dissolved minerals from forming deposits on heat-transfer surfaces, piping, pumps, and other water-contacted components.
Dispersants help keep suspended material and organic deposits from attaching to system surfaces. Certain dispersants may be used with compatible biocide programs but are not themselves biocides.
Hydrotest additives help protect internal metal surfaces during pressure testing and may reduce flash corrosion after equipment is drained.
Layup products protect boilers, heat exchangers, cooling systems, tanks, piping, and process equipment while they are offline. Treatment may involve maintaining a treated liquid or applying a dry Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor inside an enclosed system.
Specialty products are available for low-pH water, saltwater, brine, ballast tanks, fire-water systems, and other applications with unusual chemistry or operating conditions.

Boiler systems may experience corrosion in the feedwater, steam, condensate, and idle sections of the system. Dissolved oxygen can attack boiler metal, while carbon dioxide may form acidic condensate that damages return lines.
A complete boiler treatment program may include:
Boiler treatment should be designed and monitored by qualified personnel familiar with the boiler pressure, metallurgy, operating requirements, water chemistry, and applicable regulations.
Cooling towers continuously introduce air and concentrate dissolved minerals through evaporation. These conditions can increase corrosion, scaling, fouling, and biological growth.
A cooling-water program may require:
Corrosion inhibitors and dispersants should not be assumed to replace a properly designed biological-control program.
Closed loops lose less water than open systems but can still experience corrosion from oxygen intrusion, poor initial water quality, glycol degradation, mixed metals, leaks, and insufficient inhibitor concentration.
Treatment should account for:
Scale forms when dissolved minerals precipitate and attach to system surfaces. Even a thin mineral layer can interfere with heat transfer, restrict flow, increase energy use, and create areas where localized corrosion develops.
Antiscalant selection depends on the specific minerals present, saturation levels, pH, temperature, cycles of concentration, residence time, and compatibility with the rest of the treatment program.
Hydrostatic testing introduces water into new or existing tanks, vessels, pipelines, heat exchangers, and other equipment. Corrosion may occur during testing or after draining when water remains in low points, crevices, and dead legs.
A hydrotest preservation plan should consider:
During wet layup, the system remains filled with appropriately treated water. Inhibitor concentration, water chemistry, circulation, oxygen entry, and microbial activity may require periodic monitoring.
During dry layup, equipment is drained and dried before a powder, emitter, fogging treatment, or other Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor is introduced. The equipment should then be closed or sealed to retain the protective vapor concentration.
The best method depends on the system design, shutdown duration, ability to drain and dry the equipment, climate, accessibility, startup schedule, and required inspection frequency.
Effective treatment starts with understanding the system and its water chemistry. Important factors include:
Depending on the product and system, water-treatment chemicals may be introduced through:
Feed location, dosage, dilution, mixing, and injection rate should follow the current technical data sheet and the approved treatment program.
Water treatment requires ongoing monitoring rather than a one-time chemical addition. A program may include:
Review the current technical data sheet and safety data sheet before handling or feeding any water-treatment chemical. Follow all requirements for storage, dilution, personal protective equipment, ventilation, spill response, chemical-feed equipment, and disposal.
Water treatment should be approved by qualified facility, engineering, or water-treatment personnel. Systems involving potable water, food processing, healthcare, power generation, high-pressure boilers, regulated discharge, or critical equipment may have additional requirements.

ECORR Systems is an Authorized Cortec® Distributor helping industrial facilities, water-treatment professionals, maintenance teams, equipment manufacturers, contractors, and plant operators select corrosion-control products for water systems.
ECORR Systems can help evaluate the system design, water chemistry, metallurgy, operating temperature, existing treatment program, shutdown duration, and preservation requirements to identify an appropriate Cortec® water treatment product.
Cortec® products are available for boilers, condensate lines, cooling towers, closed loops, hydrostatic testing, fire-water systems, process water, saltwater, brine, and equipment layup.
No. Boiler, cooling-tower, closed-loop, hydrotest, and layup applications have different chemistry and performance requirements. Product selection should be application-specific.
A corrosion inhibitor protects metal against chemical or electrochemical attack. An antiscalant helps prevent dissolved minerals from forming deposits. Many systems require both types of treatment.
Not unless the specific product is registered and labeled as a biocide. Corrosion inhibitors, antiscalants, and dispersants should not be assumed to provide complete biological control.
Yes. Cortec® offers products for wet and dry boiler layup. Selection depends on shutdown duration, boiler design, ability to drain and dry the system, and startup requirements.
Selected products release Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors that can protect accessible metal surfaces above the waterline in an enclosed system. This capability is product-specific.
Dosage depends on the product, system volume, water analysis, operating conditions, metal types, contamination, and protection objective. Follow the technical data sheet and approved treatment program.
Disposal depends on the product, concentration, contaminants collected during testing, and local discharge requirements. Wastewater approval should be addressed before treatment begins.
Yes. ECORR Systems can review the system, water chemistry, metals, operating conditions, treatment goals, and layup requirements to help identify an appropriate Cortec® solution.
