3.2 Intended purpose
The EASYCHLORGEN on-site electrolytic chlorination system is
intended for the following purpose: Generation of a <1% sodium
hypochlorite solution using salt, water and electrical energy, with
the resulting media to be used as a disinfection agent for the
chlorination of drinking water, swimming pool and industrial
waters.
The concentration of the sodium hypochlorite solution produced
is 0.6% (+/-0.1%) Cl
2
by weight.

3.4 Sodium chloride chemical specification
The EASYCHLORGEN system is designed to be used with dry
crystalline/granular salt. Salt can be purchased in bulk/ pallet
quantities to obtain best economy. When ordering salt from your
supplier always specify the brand or specific quality you require,
so that, in the unlikely event of any shortage of stock, you will still
receive an equivalent grade of salt. The use of pure vacuum
dried (PVD) salt, or compressed PVD salt chips is not
recommended.
Note:
Within the European Union the supply of salt for use as a
precursor for in-situ generated active chlorine falls under the
Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR). Please consult your salt
supplier to check for compliance with this regulation!
