MAGNAGLO WA2B, WA4E Water Conditioner
WA-2B Water Conditioner is a white granular powder used in wet method (aqueous) magnetic particle testing to condition water prior to the addition of dry magnetic particles.
WA-2B water conditioner gives the water bath good surface wetting as well as magnetic particle dispersion capabilities.
WA-2B's unique blend of wetting agents, corrosion inhibitors, and anti-foaming agents eliminates the need of any additional water conditioning agents. WA-2B is an outstanding general-purpose water conditioner for wet method magnetic particle inspection that exhibits superior anti-caking properties during prolonged storage.
WA-4E Water Conditioner is a clear amber liquid used in wet method (aqueous) magnetic particle testing to condition water prior to the addition of dry magnetic particles.
WA-4E water conditioner gives the water bath good test part surface wetting as well as magnetic particle dispersion capabilities.
WA-4E's blend of wetting agents and enhanced corrosion inhibitors eliminates the need of any additional water conditioning agents. WA-4E offers superior short term corrosion inhibition. The liquid nature of the product means that it exhibits rapid dispersion in bath make-in comparison with powdered conditioners.
Composition
WA-2B is composed of non-ionic surface active agents, corrosion inhibitor and antifoaming agent.
WA-4E is composed of liquid non-ionic surface active agents and corrosion inhibitors.

Bath Preparation
The recommended concentration is 10.0 g of WA-2B or WA-4E per litre of water.
WA-2B - Add to water while stirring. Stir until wetting agent is completely dissolved, add magnetic particles and stir until particles are fully dispersed.. Avoid excessive amounts of wetting agent as increased foaming can occur as well as white precipitate of excess wetting agent.
WA-4E - Add to water while stirring. Add magnetic particles and stir until particles are dispersed. Avoid excessive amounts of wetting agent as heavy foaming can occur.
Before use check for correct settlement volume.
