CORONA DISCHARGE (CD) OZONE SYSTEMS
Ozone is manufactured in the CD ozone generator by drawing in air, which is composed of 20%
oxygen (O
2
), and exposing it to multiple high voltage electric0). The ozone is drawn into the
water by a venturi injector/mixer, killing any bacteria, viruses or mold spores it contacts. Ozone
is generated on-site, eliminating the need to store toxic and corrosive chemicals. The corona
discharge method is the most efficient way to produce large amounts of ozone.
A2Z Ozone Systems, Inc. manufactures high output corona discharge systems capable of
producing enough ozone to substantially reduce the consumption of other chemical
disinfectants. This reduction will make the water crystal clear and rainwater soft while allowing
for cost savings on chemicals and maintenance. Also, important health advantages will be
realized, including no hair discoloration, excessive skin dryness, faded swimming apparel, or
irritation to the eyes, nasal passages and throat. Ozone reacts to waterborne contaminants
significantly faster than other disinfectants and the primary by-product is pure oxygen.
A2Z Ozone Systems, Inc. ozone systems are built with the finest components available. All are
air-cooled and use a venturi injector system to create the best possible contact and mixing of
ozone while maintaining a high level of safety.
In contrast to ultraviolet ozone generators, corona discharge systems produce a much higher
concentration of ozone and in much larger quantities. In addition, the annual expense of
replacing lamps and checking ballasts is unnecessary with corona discharge systems. Corona
discharge ozone generation is the most economical and effective method to use on large,
commercial water applications.
FAQ's: OZONE SWIMMING POOLS / SPA BATHS
1) What is ozone?
Ozone is a highly reactive and unstable form of oxygen. Ozone is made up of three oxygen
atoms together, written as O
3
. It is called activated tri-atomic oxygen. It is a gas and is denser
than air. Ozone is the second most powerful sterilizer in the world and its function is to destroy
bacteria, viruses and odors. Ozone is nature's way of purifying the air we breathe. It is the
distinctive “electric” odor smelled during and after thunderstorms. Ozone derives from the
Greek word ozein, which means to smell. If natural ozone ceased to exist, life on this planet
would also cease to exist.
2) Is ozone a new technology?
Ozone has been around as long as oxygen, sunshine and lightning. It was discovered and
isolated in 1840 by Christian. F. Schoenbein who noticed a unique odor during electrical sparking
and electrolysis experiments. He realized that the odor was the same one he observed after a
lightning flash. In 1886 de Meritens of France conducted the first experiments using this unique
gas as a disinfectant. He proved that even minute amounts of ozonized air would sterilize
