GENERAL MAINTENANCE & SERVICE
• Ozone works up to 3,000 times faster than chlorine
to kill bacteria and destroy harmful microorganisms.
• Ozone is a more powerful oxidizing agent than
chlorine and bromine, having a better ability to
remove water contamination.
• Ozone will not form harmful by-products, like
THM’s (a problem in drinking water), or chlora-
mines, (by-products of chlorine that are respon-
sible for odors, skin irritations and burning eyes.)
• Ozone will not alter the water’s pH, reducing pH
fl uctuations.
• Ozone coagulates small particles in water so
clarity is dramatically improved.
• Ozone acts as a deodorizer removing unpleasant
odors from water.
How the CLP Ozone System Works
Because ozone is unstable, it cannot be packaged and
used at a later date. For this reason, ozone is always
produced where it is utilized.
Point-of-use ozone generation is simple. This powerful
disinfectant is produced from ambient air surrounding the
generator using special ultraviolet lamps located inside
the system’s cabinet. To generate the ozone, air move-
ment is created through the use of an air compressor or
water venturi. As air passes over these unique lamps,
the oxygen contained in the air is converted. The result-
ing ozone gas is subsequently introduced to the water
in the inlet pipeline, where oxidation and disinfection
immediately takes place.
Ozone Generator Maintenance
WARNING: Never look at an un-
shielded ozone lamp while operat-
ing the unit. This lamp will cause
severe eye and skin damage.
There is a green indicator light
which will dim when the unit is
operating properly and will turn
bright green if there is a malfunc-
tion. See product description for
location of the indicator light.
Lamp:
The light has a 9,000 hour life expectancy.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
AND SERVICE
Periodic Maintenance:
• Oil Skimmer Collection Drum
• Monitor the level of oil in the collection drum.
Empty it as required.
• Check the electrical cords to ensure they are safe,
no damage or cracking.
• Check inlet / outlet pipes for leaks or damage.
Winterizing
If a heated area is not provided in areas where freezing
temperatures can be expected, the entire machine must
be drained.
Testing Carbon
Remove the valve from the Carbasorb Filter and extract a
carbon sample. Place carbon sample in the 4 oz. plastic
bottle. (Fill the bottle 1/4 full of carbon, about 2 inches).
Fill the 2 oz. bottle with water and add 1 drop chlorine.
Dip the chlorine test paper into the solution to ensure
you have at least 100 parts per million of chlorine in the
mixture. Add this solution to the carbon in the 4 oz. bottle.
Cap and shake it periodically over a period of three min-
utes. After three minutes, dip a new piece of chlorine test
paper into the solution. Compare the color with the color
chart that comes with the test paper. If the color matches
the color on test paper, order new carbon.
There may
be some dark discoloration from the carbon. Do not
confuse this with the color caused by the chlorine.
OZONE GENERATOR
Ozone...Nature’s Purifi cation Agent
Ozone is produced in nature or artifi cially by man. In
the earth’s atmosphere, ozone is formed when oxygen
is exposed to ultraviolet light or an electrical charge as
during thunderstorms. Ozone’s primary function in nature
is to purify the air we breathe and screen us from harmful
rays of the sun. In a similar fashion, the CLP system uses
ozone to disinfect water because

of characteristics that make it ideal for water treatment.
