1C. Accessories
Absolute Ozone® ozone generators could be used with several accessories and safety devices to ensure a long service life
of the ozone generator.
6
SECTION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1C.i Ozone Generation
•
Air Compressor: The air compressor pumps ambient pressurized air into the oxygen generator/concentrator
•
Oxygen Generator/Concentrator: separates Oxygen from
Nitrogen and supplies it directly into the ozone generating
cell inside the ozone generator
1C.ii Required Equipment and Accessories
•
Oxygen Generator/Concentrator: The oxygen generator
uses a PSA (pressure swing absorption) molecular sieve bed
to remove dirt, moisture, nitrogen, and other trace gases,
producing oxygen at greater than 90% purity and less than
-60˚C dew point. The air compressor pumps ambient air into
the oxygen generator input. Then, the oxygen generator
outputs oxygen (O2) feed gas into the ozone generator cell
and enables the ozone generator to produce ozone effectively at 6 to 23%wt. ozone concentration, depending on
oxygen flow, and generator type. In our experience, oxygen
generators manufactured by AirSep work very well with AbsoluteOzone® ozone generators.
•
Oxygen Filter: To protect the Absolute Ozone® generator
from sieve particles in case of oxygen generator failure or
malfunction, we recommend installing an oxygen filter after
the oxygen generator and before the ozone generator
7
SECTION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1C.ii Required Equipment and Accessories
•
Ozone Flow Control Valve (Flow Meter): This should be
installed downstream from (after) the ozone generator to
maintain working pressure across the ozone cell as specified
for the optimal performance.
•
ALD 2000 Flood Prevention Device: We recommend installing an ALD 2000 with every ozone system treating water to
prevent water from backing up into the ozone generator
and damaging it. Non-return (check valves) do not provide
100% water flooding protection to the ozone generator WE RECOMMEND installing the ozone generator WITH
the ALD 2000 or similar device when treating liquids.
8
SECTION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1C.ii Required Equipment and Accessories
Ozone Injector for Water Treatment Applications (Venturi):
Inlet water flows through the pump and the ozone injector, creating a vacuum that pulls ozone gas from the ozone generator and injects the ozone gas into the water flow. The injector
should be sized to dissolve a minimum of 90% of the ozone gas
into the water flow continuously.
Ozone De-gas Tank: Ozone enriched water from the ozone injector flows into the degas chamber/tank where a slow down of
water flow by 2 min allows any undissolved ozone and oxygen
gas to rise to the top and be vented through a bleed-off valve
ALD2000R to outside or through an ozone destructor.
Ozone Destructor: Undissolved ozone gas passes through the
regular or heated catalytic ozone destructor that is made up
of non-consumable manganese dioxide (heat-protected from
moisture fouling in heated destructor). The manganese dioxide offers redundant ozone destruct capabilities if selected and
sized correctly.
9
SECTION 2 INSTALLATION
2A. Location
Ozone Generator installation should allow for good access to
proper electrical power and required gas connections and allow
good cooling air circulation for the Ozone Generator(s).
DO NOT OBSTRUCT COOLING AIR VENTS ON THE OZONE
GENERATOR.
The Absolute Ozone® generators must be installed in a
dry cool space protected from weather elements. Ambient
working temperature from -10C to +30C.
The ATLAS/MAGNUM® Ozone Generators have a universal
mounting design to be installed on a vertical wall, on a horizontal or tilted bench, mobile cart or skied. TITAN® enclosure is designed for a 19” electronic mount rack.

2B. Electrical
Main Power Supply Circuit: Generators are supplied with a
3-5 feet power cord. Connect the power cord to a standard
grounded power source, according to a local electrical code
only.
2C. Plumbing
When injecting Ozone into water, all measures should be
taken to protect the Generator Cell from water exposure/
flooding, which may cause internal cell damage. An ALD2000
or similar automatic liquid drain system is recommended to
be installed on the ozone line to Venturi, to prevent water
flooding.
11
SECTION 2 INSTALLATION
2D. Gas Connections
The Ozone Generator should be connected by tubing made
from material appropriate for ozone and oxygen applications.
Connect the Ozone Generator according to indications on
input and output bulkheads. All efforts should be made to protect the generator from exposure to incorrect operating gas
pressure or excessive pressure fluctuations, which may lead to
damage to electronic circuitry and the ozone cell. For applications where pressure fluctuations are possible, we strongly
recommend the installation of a buffer tank with an appropriate hi-low pressure switch. It is VERY IMPORTANT to protect
the Ozone Generator from any possible contamination from
the oxygen concentrator or ozone injection side by installing
appropriate filters, anti-flood, and other contamination-restricting devices upstream/downstream from the generator.
Compressed air supplied to the oxygen concentrator should
be free of oil vapors.
2E. Remote Control
Absolute Ozone® ozone generators are equipped with standard
“On/Off” remote control terminals that can be controlled remotely by the operator, ambient ozone monitor, or PLC.
12
SECTION 2 INSTALLATION
2E. Remote Control
4-20mA On/Off Power Remote Control
•
Remote control of ozone production level can be
achieved by 4-20mA at 10 V signal. The function of this
power control is not linear.
•
Remote On/Off. Remote Switch must be normally open
for the generator to be “On” and closed to stop the
Ozone production.
•
That switch has to be connected to dry contacts only
(not connected to ground or connected to any voltage
source AC or DC)
•
Remote Ozone Generator status indicator.
a) During Normal Ozone generator operation. Pins 5 and
6 are normally open, pins 6 and 7 are normally closed.
b) If Remote Control Switch is Off or safety shutoff is activated the circuit between pins 5 & 6 will be closed and 6
& 7 open.
13
SECTION 3 OPERATION
3A. LCD Control Panel Overview
Here is a general description of the controller and the features it offers:
All Absolute Ozone® generators come with 4-20mA 10 V
remote power level control as a standard feature that allows adjusting power going to the ozone cell remotely to
a required level that is later automatically maintained by
a control system, regardless of minor voltage or pressure
deviations.
Internal iOzone intelligent diagnostic/controller system
protects Absolute Ozone® generators from the following
potential problems:
•
Incorrect wiring or voltage applied to the remote control
terminals.
•
Incorrect power applied in the specified range (too low,
too high)
•
Incorrect operating pressure.
•
Ozone cell contamination by water or similar.
•
Bad feed gas quality (too much humidity, or contamination)
•
Overheating or failure of the cooling system, etc.
Power saving Mode: After a few minutes of inactivity, the
LCD screen switches to a power-saving mode and shuts off
to conserve energy. (This does not affect the generator’s performance). If you want to leave the power-saving mode, you
can touch the screen at any point to turn ON the LCD.
14
SECTION 3 OPERATION
Photos of typical LCD control touch screen.
The LCD screen shows the following parameters:
• Selected or Expected power setting %, so you will be
able to see on the screen power selected by the remote
control or slider.
• Actual power % & Watt going to an ozone cell.
• The cell voltage V.
• Current Amp going to the ozone cell
• Gas pressure inside the ozone cell.
• Temperature inside the ozone cell.
• The LCD screen will allow by touch to switch the generator on and off and to adjust the desired power by
moving the slider on the screen with your finger.
• Indication of power setting signal (LCD/RC - remote
control).
15
SECTION 3 OPERATION
•
•
•
In the event that incorrect operating parameters are
applied to the ozone generator the unit is switched off
by the Ozone intelligent diagnostic control system, and
the LCD screen will indicate which of the parameters
caused the generator shutdown.
In a safety shutdown mode the generator will be constantly monitoring operating parameters and the moment they are corrected the generator will restart automatically, without any assistance.
I.e. if there is a power spike or if there is a pressure drop
caused by temporary power failure and interruption of
oxygen supply, the moment the pressure or supplied
voltage is restored to normal, the generator will restart
and will produce ozone again.
3B. System Startup
1. Make sure the Ozone Generator enclosure is securely attached to an appropriate frame or wall Ozone Generators
Stack.
2. Make sure all connections to the generator, power, and
gas are made according to local codes and regulations.
3. Purge the generator with 90% or higher concentration oxygen and assure a free flow of oxygen through the system
and removal of contaminants. Conduct system leak test
applying working pressure +/-10% using oxygen only. Adjust gas pressure across the cell according to specifications
using a downstream Control Valve (on the flow meter) and
pressure gauge (supplied by the installer).
4. Plug the system into a specified receptacle.
5. Flip the Power Switch into the “ON” position.
6. Slide the red dot on the power control slider upwards to
adjust to desired power from 0-100% according to supplied “Ozone Generator Performance Test” chart. Now
the generator is at optimum production mode and ozone
should be flowing through the system.
16
SECTION 3 OPERATION
3C. System Shutdown
1. Slide the red dot on the power control slider downwards to
adjust power from 0%. (No ozone is produced at this time.)
2. Switch the power switch to the OFF position.
3. Unplug the system from the power source if required.
4. Close down the downstream Control Valve (located on the
flow meter -supplied by installer) to protect the unit from
accidental flooding.
5. Turn the oxygen source off.
3D. Standard Operating Procedures
NOTE: To assure a long trouble-free service life for the ozone
Generator, provide the following operating conditions:
•
Make sure that the oxygen concentrator is maintained properly and is producing oxygen at greater than 90% purity and
less than -60°Cdew point. Check sieve conditions and replace it as often as recommended by the manufacturer
•
Install an oxygen filter and oxygen dryer between the oxygen concentrator and the Ozone Generator, check the condition and replace the cartridge to protect Ozone Generator
from sieve particles in case of oxygen generator failure and
moisture.
•
Make sure to maintain working pressure across ozone cells
as specified for the generator protection and most efficient
production.
•
When injecting ozone into water make sure to protect the
generator from flooding by installing a device capable of
preventing water backup. Check valves usually start leaking
after a few days of operation in ozone and cause serious
damage to the ozone cell. We recommend using devices,
which could automatically drain water out of the ozone line
and stop it from entering the ozone cell.
17
SECTION 4 MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
4A Preventative Maintenance
Generally, Absolute Ozone® is maintenance-free although it is
useful to check the Ozone Generator for proper operation:
1. Make sure there are no warnings on the LCD screen.
2. Inspect visually all gas, power and signal cables, and connectors
3. Make sure that all air vents are not obstructed.
Monthly:
1. Make sure that all system equipment (oxygen concentrator, air compressor, etc.) is maintained according to the
manufacturer
2. Remove and replace or clean filter cartridges and other
devices if installed and required.
3. Perform general cleaning of cabinet exterior after disconnecting the equipment from the electrical source.
4. Using clean/dry compressed air, or a vacuum cleaner
blow out the interior or vacuum the cabinet, taking special care around electronic components and wiring.

20
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5A.i Relative Strength of Ozone
The following compares the strengths of several common oxidizing reagents (EOP vs. Cl2)
• Elemental Fluorine (2.25)
• Hydroxyl Radical (2.05)
• Ozone (1.52)
• Hydrogen Peroxide (1.30)
• Hypochlorite (1.10)
• Chlorine (1.00)
• Chlorine Dioxide (0.93)
• Bromine (0.57)
5A.ii Micro-Flocculation and Oxidation
Ozone oxidizes the following metals (known as micro-flocculation), enabling their removal via filtration:
• Iron
• Copper
• Manganese
• Zinc
• Arsenic
Ozone neutralizes “nuisance” compounds - most commonly,
hydrogen sulfide.
21
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5B. i General Safety Information - Ozone Properties
•
Colorless to blue gas (greater than -169 F).
•
The characteristic odor is often associated with electrical sparks or
lightning in concentrations of less than 0.02 ppm.
•
Highly chemically reactive.
•
Non-flammable, non-carcinogenic.
•
Hazardous polymerization can occur in some rare materials.
•
Spontaneously decomposes to oxygen gas.
5B. ii General Safety Information - Ozone Uses
•
Air and water disinfection
•
Surface sanitation
•
Water treatment plants
•
Bottled water, irrigation, community water supplies, swimming pools/
spas, etc.
•
Aquariums/life support
•
Agricultural wash water
•
Wastewater treatment
•
Mold and bacteria control in cold storage
22
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5C.i Health Hazards – Detection Levels
Gaseous ozone can be detected in the air by its distinctive odor
at concentrations of about 0.02 ppm. Although each nose varies, olfactory fatigue occurs quickly.
Initial small exposure may reduce cell sensitivity and/or increase
mucous thickness producing resistance to low gaseous ozone
levels.
DO NOT RELY ON ODOR AS A WARNING OF HIGH OZONE
CONCENTRATIONS. The Permissible Exposure Level (PEL) or time-weighted concentration for gaseous ozone to which workers may be exposed
is 0.1 ppm averaged over 8 hours, 5 days a week (OSHA). The
short-term exposure limit is 0.3 ppm averaged over 15 minutes.
The concentration of 5.0 ppm ozone in the air is generally accepted as Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH).
5C.ii Health Hazards – Effect on Humans
Gaseous ozone acts as a primary irritant, affecting mainly the
eyes, upper respiratory tract, and lungs. Inhalation produces
various degrees of respiratory effects from irritation to pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs). Short exposure to 1-2 ppm concentrations causes headaches as well as irritation to the respiratory system but symptoms subside when exposure ends. High
concentrations of ozone produce severe irritation to the eyes
and respiratory system. Exposure above the ACGIH/OSHA limits may produce nausea, chest pain, coughing, fatigue, reduced
visual acuity, and pulmonary edema. Symptoms of edema from
excessive exposure can be delayed one or more hours. There is
no threshold limit and so no exposure (regardless of how small)
is theoretically without effect from ozone’s strong oxidative
ability.
23
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5C.iii Electrical Hazards
Turn OFF all power switches and disconnect the power cord
from the power source receptacle before performing service
work. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.
Operate the generator with safe access to electrical power.
Connect the generator to a G.F.C.I. type receptacle or as required by local electrical codes & regulations. Do not bury the
electrical cord. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace
the damaged cord immediately.
5C.iv Fire Hazards
Ozone is non-flammable. The decomposition of ozone into
oxygen gas (O2) can increase the strength of fire. Ozone is
unstable at room temperature and spontaneously decomposes to oxygen gas. Avoid ignition sources such as heat, sparks,
and open flame. Keep away from strong combustible materials
such as grease, oils, and fats.
5C. v Chemical Accion
Ozone is chemically incompatible with all oxidizable materials,
both organic and inorganic.
24
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5D.i Ozone Monitors
Ambient ozone monitoring/control equipment (available from Absolute
Ozone®) should be installed in the areas where ozone is being generated or applied. In a case when ambient ozone concentration reaches
or becomes higher than 0.05 ppm, the ozone monitor/controller should
switch the power of the ozone generator off and produce a warning
audio/visible signal to allow people to clear the room and to avoid high
concentration ozone exposure.
5D.ii Ventilation
It is mandatory that general and local exhaust ventilation be provided
to dilute and disperse small amounts of ozone into the outside atmosphere. Federal, state, and local regulations must be followed.
5D.iii Emergency Procedure
Due to the short life of ozone, evacuation and ventilation are all that
is generally required in the event of a high ambient ozone alarm. All
ozone generating and delivery equipment should be shut down (manually or automatically by alarm) and a high-speed fan activated
to dilute and disperse ozone into the atmosphere. Personnel should
leave the affected area until levels are returned to below 0.1 ppm.
5D.iv Respiratory Protection
A disposable respirator (3M #N95 8214/8514 - Minneapolis, MN,
www.3m.com) is recommended for relief against ozone levels up to 10
times the OSHA PEL or applicable government occupational exposure
limits, whichever is lower.
25
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5D.v Education and Training
The education and training of workers are the responsibility of
the end user. An effective training program must be practical,
based on written work procedures, and specific to both the job
site and the tasks to be performed. Training shall also include
the responsibilities and responses of workers in an emergency.
The employer shall ensure through the education and training
program that all workers can work without risk to themselves or
others around them. All workers must clearly understand their
responsibilities concerning not only specific work procedures
but also the need to report all hazards, accidents, or incidents
and injuries. Management and employees shall review all routine work and emergency procedures jointly at least once annually.

SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5E.i Safety Precautions and Equipment
Repair and maintenance of the ozone system shall be done
under the direction of qualified personnel. Qualification shall
consist of instruction from the equipment supplier on the safeguards and procedures necessary for the safe performance of
the work. Repair of the Ozone Generator could be performed
only under the supervision of Absolute Ozone® engineers unless authorized and instructed otherwise by Absolute Ozone
personnel. All equipment in an ozone plant (ozone generator,
piping, pumps, tanks, etc.) coming in contact with gases containing ozone must be maintained free of oil and grease. Monitoring equipment and alarm system shall be tested and serviced
according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The planned maintenance of all safety equipment is essential to worker safety.
5E. ii Maintenance Requirements
It is the joint responsibility of the manufacturer, supplier, and
installer of the Ozone generating and handling equipment to
determine whether or not the system is working properly. The
operation and maintenance manual provided with the equipment outlines the operating procedures and maintenance requirements.
5F Monitoring Equipment and location
Ambient ozone detection monitors shall be located to monitor
ozone room air and production/plant room air for indoor applications.
Proper Ozone Monitoring equipment should be used to protect
personnel from dangerous levels of ozone exposure.
Absolute Ozone® could provide suitable ozone monitoring at
customer request.
27
SECTION 5 OVERVIEW AND SAFETY PROCEDURES
5G. First Aid
5G. i General Information
1. DO NOT PANIC. If exposure to gaseous ozone causes headaches or shortness of breath, immediately remove the worker to a fresh-air environment.
2. Ensure there is no more danger to yourself or the worker.
3. Workers who have been exposed to low concentrations of
ozone should be given oxygen to breathe while under the
observation of trained personnel.
4. If exposure is severe, send for medical assistance immediately.
5G. ii Inhalation
1. Assess the worker’s breathing.
2. All unconscious workers must be placed in the drainage position (on their sides); so that fluids can drain from the airways once breathing has been restored.
3. Check pulse.

IMPORTANT:
If authorized by Absolute Ozone to
remove MAGNUM enclosure cover,
please ensure the screws are fastened in the same pattern in the same
position as originally assembled/
found. Moreover, ONLY USE the same
short screw as supplied on the middle
threaded hole on the right side of the
MAGNUM ozone generator. Using an
incorrect screw or a longer length (than
supplied) screw, you risk puncturing the
internal ozone gas which runs directly
behind the threaded hole which could
potentially cause a leak and would not
be covered under warranty.
