Components of the System
The AE System (Figure 1) is an on-site mixed oxidant generator. The rated capacity of the AE Systems
are as follows: AE-4 is 4 pounds (1.8 kg) FAC per day, AE-6 is 6 pounds (2.7 kg) FAC per day and AE-8
is 8 (3.6 kg) pounds FAC per day. The systems are designed for easy salt loading and can operate for
hundreds of hours on a single loading of salt. The unit operates automatically and is self-diagnosing.
Space Requirements
A minimum floor space of 9 feet (2.75 meters) by 3 feet (1 meter) is required for the brine
generator, on-site generator, and oxidant tank. The system should be installed on a clean and level
surface.
Security
MIOX Corporation equipment must be installed in a building or protected structure that provide shelter
from the weather and extreme temperature variances, and which can be locked or otherwise secured.
Physical security is required to ensure that unauthorized persons cannot access the unit.
Salt and Water Quality Requirements
See Appendix A for water quality requirements. See Appendix B for salt quality requirements
AE Series OSG System Components
Electrolytic Cell
A proprietary membraneless electrolytic cell that produces a mixture of oxidants and is manufactured by
MIOX.
Water Softener
All MIOX Corporation equipment requires soft water. Hard water will cause severe damage to the cell.
Water hardness must be maintained at less than one grain/gallon (17.1 mg/L of CaCo3).
The softener resin is recharged with brine from the brine generator. The correct sized recharge meter
disc is determined by water hardness.
