Water-in-Fuel Emulsion Breaker
Product Description
Gamabreak rapidly breaks water-in-oil emulsions in all grades of fuel. It assists water removal in the settling tank and fuel centrifuges.
Product Properties
Gamabreak breaks water-in-oil emulsions by lowering the surface tension between the two phases. It is insoluble in water and remains effective even after the water has been removed. Powerful dispersants combat existing sludge formations while homogenizing the fuel to prevent new sludge from being formed. Centrifugal separation of catalyst fines is improved, reducing abrasion damage. The homogenizing action of Gamabreak keeps heavy fuel particles in suspension, therefore fuel filters block less frequently, tanks and lines remain cleaner, and in general, fuel systems maintenance is minimized. Consequently, a greater proportion of supplied fuel is available for combustion.
Direction for Use and Dose Rates
Dose into the bunker tank prior to, or during bunkering. Allow the product to mix well with the fuel. If fuel analysis is available, the dosage should be based on the water content, as per the following table.

Description of first aid measures
|
Contact with skin |
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and drench affected skin with plenty of water.Contaminated clothing should be laundered before reuse.Seek medical attention if irritation persists |
|
Contact with eyes |
If substance has got into eyes, immediately wash out with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Irrigate eyes thoroughly whilst lifting eyelids. When in doubt or symptoms persist, seek medical attention |
| Ingestion | Do not induce vomiting because of risk of aspiration into the lungs. If aspiration is suspected obtain immediate medical attention. If vomiting occurs turn patient on side. Obtain immediate medical attention |
|
Inhalation |
Remove patient to fresh air. Seek medical attention if ill effects occur |
| General | If swallowed, do not induce vomiting: seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label (S62) |
