2. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations.
You have purchased an excellent equipment to treat wa-
ter for human consumption, which increases the hydro-
gen concentration in water and reduces ORP.
What is Hydrogen?
Hydrogen is the chemical element with atomic number
1. It is the lightest of all elements and the most abun-
dant in the universe, though not on the Earth. Hydrogen
is quite common in nature in combination with other
elements such as oxygen, carbon or nitrogen (it is a
component of water, the human body, plant and animal
organisms, etc.).
What is the Redox Potential (ORP) of water?
ORP measures the tendency of water and its compo-
nents in solution to oxidise (positive potential) and/or
reduce (negative potential).
What is the pH of water?
pH indicates the acidity of a substance. It is determined
by the number of free hydrogen ions (H+) in a substance.
The pH of water may vary within 0 and 14. When the pH
of a substance is greater than 7, it is a basic substance.
When the pH of a substance is lower than 7, it is an aci-
dic substance. The greater the deviation of the pH above
or below 7, more basic o acidic will the solution be.
