Never use this product for potable water treatment or human consumption unless explicitly stated in a separate, validated application sheet.
Swallowing the concentrate can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and burns to the mouth or throat.
Always obtain the current manufacturer-issued document for NALCO 3DT 449.
Industrial spills must be contained immediately to prevent the chemical from entering storm drains or natural waterways.
Unlike more corrosive industrial water treatments, Nalco 3DT449 is uniquely formulated for lower toxicity and increased worker safety. : Not a hazardous substance or mixture. Signal Word : None. Hazard Statements : None.
For plant managers, the ritual is clear:
is a high-performance, non-hazardous liquid reagent used as a corrosion and scale inhibitor in industrial cooling water systems . Manufactured by Nalco Water, an Ecolab company, this advanced formulation prevents calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate precipitation while maintaining exceptional stability in high-temperature environments. To ensure compliance with workplace safety standards, facilities must maintain and understand the product's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) , now universally updated under the Globally Harmonized System as a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) .
While the MSDS does not include a dedicated transport section, the product's low hazard classification suggests it is for transport. However, shippers should always verify current regulations and consult the most recent SDS for transport-specific codes.
It is a violation of federal law to use the product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Below is a detailed overview of the information typically found in its Safety Data Sheet (SDS), formerly known as a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Product Identification and Use Nalco 3DT449 (3D TRASAR™ 3DT449).
Actual formulation varies. Always consult the specific lot-specific MSDS available via EcoLab’s online portal.
Based on related 3D TRASAR products, this chemical is classified as corrosive. files.dep.state.pa.us Signal Word: Causes severe skin burns and serious eye damage. Safety Measures:
: Actively manages biological and particulate matter buildup to ensure consistent water flow.
Keep away from incompatible materials, such as strong oxidizing agents or strong acids/bases, which could compromise the product's stability.
Industrial cooling water systems require robust chemical treatment to prevent corrosion, scale formation, and biological growth. NALCO™ 3D TRASAR™ 3DT449 is a specialized chemical formulation designed for these demanding environments. Understanding the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)—now more commonly referred to as the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) under the Globally Harmonized System (GHS)—is essential for ensuring workplace safety, regulatory compliance, and environmental protection.
Spills should be contained with absorbent material (like sand or earth) and collected in designated containers for disposal.
The MSDS outlines appropriate first aid procedures for different exposure routes. No serious health effects are expected under normal use conditions.
Depending on its exact pH and concentration, the product often carries the Signal Word: or DANGER , accompanied by the exclamation mark pictogram indicating skin and eye irritation risks. 3. Composition and Key Ingredients
