Condensate polishers and Coordinated Phosphate treatment

Condensate polishers and Coordinated Phosphate treatment

(OP)
Why is it that boiler water treatment programs that use coordinated phosphate programs do not usually need condensate polishers, while all-volatile treatment programs do?

Thanks!

RE: Condensate polishers and Coordinated Phosphate treatment

Phosphate provides sufficient chemical buffering capacity to cope with small system upsets, e.g., a small condenser leak. Without phosphate, you need a condensate polisher to remove the contaminants.
