Salt-Away SAM 6 oz Mixing Unit with 3-Position Valve for Salt-Away Concentrate Dispensing

The Salt-Away SAM is the 6 oz Mixing Unit used to dispense Salt-Away concentrated salt remover formula. It is the required delivery system for many Salt-Away applications, including outboard, I/O, and PWC jet engine flushes, most inboard flushes, and pressure washer setups. For pressure washer use, the unit connects inline between the water hose and the hose inlet connection on the pressure washer.

The receptacle holds 6 fl oz (177 ml) of concentrate and is built with a 3-position valve offering Off, Rinse, and Salt-Away settings, letting the operator switch between plain water rinsing and concentrate dispensing without disconnecting the hose. The mixing unit is warranted to withstand water pressure up to 60 psi. An O-ring inside the receptacle prevents leakage and must be kept in place at all times. For easy connection to standard hose fittings, the out-flow end is constructed with male threads while the in-flow end is constructed with female threads. Salt-Away is manufactured to be dispensed from the Mixing Unit at a ratio of 1 part Salt-Away to 500 parts water. The unit is molded from plastic. Salt-Away concentrate is a water-based product that will freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit and below; if the product freezes, allow it to thaw naturally rather than force-thawing it.
