Vapour Degreasing Solvents

How Does Critical Cleaning Work? Improvements in equipment technology, driven by legislation

Vapour degreasing is the simplest but most effective degreasing and cleaning process. It has, until recently, been subject to little change since it was first invented in the early part of the last century. The name for the process is a misnomer as the cleaning is actually achieved by solvent vapour condensing on the cooler target parts the hot liquid solvent dissolving oil and removing dirt.

Vapour degreasing is a mature technology on which legislation is now effecting changes so fundamental that the more accurate name for the process “Condensation Cleaning” should be used to reflect the way in which it works. More importantly the alternatives in equipment design and fundamental differences in the technologies which guarantee its continuing use in the future need to be considered and understood.

Very important information regarding 

• EnSolv – nPB Solvents

  • Ensolv and REACH Regulations 2019

    Dear Customer ,

    With this letter we inform our customers of the future uses of products containing 1-

    bromopropane (n-propyl bromide, NpB )contained in ENSOLV and ECOMAX products.

    The industrial uses of Ensolv and Ecomax products containing NpB as described in our

    Manufacturers Safety Data sheets have been supported for 30 years and will remain

    supported in the EU until the sunset date of 4th July 2020.

    After the 4th July 2020 under European regulations Envirotech Europe are prohibited from

    supplying companies in the EU with Ensolv and Ecomax (NpB) products .

    Current users of these products are advised to manage their supplies of Ensolv and Ecomax

    products . Any material that customers have in stock after the sunset date can still be used

    and will have a shelf life of three years.

    Any customer wishing to increase their stock of these products is advised to contact us to

    ensure that we have sufficient supplies.

    We now have drop in replacements for Ensolv and Ecomax and can when the time arises

    advise customers on how to change to a replacement product.

    Please note that the EU REACH regulations for NpB products such as Ensolv and Ecomax

    only apply to supply into countries within the European Union and do not prohibit the use of

    NpB products in other countries throughout the World. We will continue to supply and

    support these products in non-EU countries.

    Please contact us directly if you have any queries regarding this new EU regulation

High performance cleaning at a lower cost than other fluorinated solvent cleaners

ProSolv®  replacement can be used in most existing vapour degreasing equipment and can be used safely for immersion cleaning using ultrasonics, where it has been optimised with a high specific gravity and very low surface tension.

Unlike other chlorinated solvents ProSolv® can be used for manual cleaning in a suitably ventilated area. Typical applications are where high performance critical cleaning is required at lower cost than other fluorinated solvent cleaners. Vapour degreasing for medical, aerospace, optics, oxygen equipment service, high vacuum components and electronics.

ProSolv® is an excellent choice to replace flammable solvents such as MEK, Acetone, Iso propyl alcohol (IPA) or hydrocarbons where manual wiping or brush cleaning is the preferred cleaning method.

ProSolv® is a stable azeotrope which can be recycled by distillation for reuse through many cycles. It is a very stable mixture  with no need for monitoring or the need for additives or stabilisers.

ProSolv® offers a cost effective Trichloroethylene replacement in formulations for dip, spray or aerosol applications and as a fast drying carrier solvent for oil, silicones and other

For more detailed information please visit the ProSolv® product website.

MetaSolve (vapor degreasing solvent)

For use in a professional environment using a vapor degreasing tank

Vapor degreasing has become a generic term used for any cleaning process that uses a hot solvent as the cleaning medium. However, more accurately, it is the simplest, and traditionally, the most commonly used, solvent cleaning process.

True vapor degreasing uses the vapor generated when a solvent, such as methylene chloride, is heated to its boiling point. When the hot vapor encounters an item at a lower temperature, such as a component to be cleaned, it condenses and runs down the surface, dissolving any contamination it comes into contact with. The latent heat released when the vapor condenses gradually heats up the item until it reaches the same temperature as the vapor, at which point, condensing, and thus cleaning, stops. When the component is removed from the solvent vapor, the heat retained by the item evaporates the thin film of liquid solvent, leaving the part clean and dry.

Vapor degreasing is simple, fast and effective for cleaning items with simple geometry and relatively high thermal mass. It is not so effective on complex items with blind holes, cavities etc., or on items that heat up very quickly e.g. thin aluminium sheet. In these instances, cleaning by immersion into liquid solvent, either at the boiling point or irradiated with ultrasonic energy, is a more effective cleaning process.
