WHAT THE CHLORINE GENERATOR DOES
The WaterStep M-100 Chlorine Generator was developed in response to a need that
affects nearly 1 billion people around the globe . . . unsafe drinking water. In fact,
waterborne disease claims more lives each day than armed conflict, HIV/AIDS, and
cancer combined.
For more than 140 years, chlorine has been added to water to kill disease-causing
bacteria and pathogens. The WaterStep M-100 Chlorine Generator is designed as a
portable, affordable way to chlorinate water for the purpose of eliminating waterborne
pathogens.
Through the process of electrolysis, the M-100 Chlorine Generator creates chlorine gas
from salt water. The chlorine gas, which evenly disburses throughout the water, kills
the waterborne bacteria in 2 hours.
As contaminated water circulates through the system, chlorine gas is injected into the
water. When the water has reached the recommended chlorine level - 5 PPM (parts per
million) - and still has 2 PPM chlorine level after setting for two or more hours, the
waterborne pathogens are killed.
This chlorine generator does not remove salt from seawater or remove heavy metals
or chemicals from the water.
