How Chlor-O-SafeTM works

Brine from a salt saturator is diluted and fed into an electrochemical cell where the solution is electrolyzed to sodium hypochlorite and transferred to a storage tank. The hydrogen produced is separated in a degasser and vented. Softened water is automatically supplied to the saturator, maintaining a stable brine concentration. The generation of hypochlorite is controlled by level switches to ensure a sufficient amount of fresh product for varying dosing requirement. Chlor-O-SafeTM is fully automatic and controlled from a panel where all necessary safety devices are incorporated.

All that is needed for sterilization with the Clor-O-SafeTM unit is salt, water and electricity. As hypochlorite is produced at less than 1 % concentration, the hazards and precautions normally associated with storage of chemicals are avoided.
