SODIUM DICHLOROISOCYANURATE
Slow release stabilised chlorine
Sodium dichloroisocyanurate (SDIC) is the sodium salt of a chlorinated hydroxytriazine and is used as a source of free available chlorine (in the form of hypochlorous acid, HOCl) for the disinfection of drinking-water. A special high active powder containing 65% chlorine which slowly releases chlorine into swimming pools and spas. Stailised to prevent deteriorating effects of sunlight. Easy to dissolve granules that sanitise and disinfect water removing bacteria and algae. It also removes grease and oils helping to keep pool water clean and healthy.

How to use Sodium DiChloroisocyanurate in pools and spas
Chlorine levels of pools and spas should be maintained from 1-3 mg/L and the pH from 7.2 - 7.6.
To raise the level of free chlorine by 1 part per million or 1mg/L for every 10000 litres of water add 12.5g of Stabilised Chlorine granules. Dissolve the granules in a container and add by dosing into the skimmer or via a pump. Do not use pool until level of chlorine in pool returns to 1-3mg/L.
