GENERAL SAFETY RULES The equipment mentioned in this manual is specially designed for the sanitizing of water in swimming pools. It is designed to work with clean water at a temperature not exceeding 60°C (140°F). The installation should be carried out in accordance to the safety instructions of swimming pools especially Standard HD 384.7.702 and the specific instructions for each facility.
• Do not inhale ozone gas produced by this device. • Disconnect all power to pool equipment prior to installation, maintenance, or removal of the Hydroxzone ozone Generator. • To avoid risk of electric shock, fire, or injury, service should only be performed by a qualified pool service professional.
1. HydrOXZONe OZONe GeNeraTOr 1.1 INTRODUCTION TO OZONE The Hydroxzone ozone generator system produces ozone when air is drawn across a special high-energy vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) lamp, converting some air to ozone and hydroxyl radicals. A Dynamic Venturi is inserted on the return line, by-passing through a venturi, which creates suction that draws the ozone/hydroxyl radicals into the water flow, mixing the bubbles as the water returns to the pool.

1.2 THE DYNAMIC VENTURI INJECTOR (DVI) ASSEMBLY Hydroxzone ozone generator uses a Dynamic Venturi Injector that enhances the transfer of ozone to the water. The injector is specially designed to minimise the pressure drop across the system. Figure 1.2 How the injector works...
NOTE: The minimum recommended vacuum at the inlet of the Venturi injector is 2 L/min. The vacuum can be measure by using a vacuum meter (Waterco’s P/N 72522813). It may be necessary to install a Ball Valve (not included) in the main line between the Entrance and Exit of the bypass.

Hydroxzone Ozone Generator I pg 05 NOTE: For 50mm pipe, do not use 40 mm adapters and gasket and turn bushings so small end points toward Injector (for Entrance) or PVC Pipe (for Exit). NOTE: If your filtration system uses a Diatemateous Earth (DE) or cartridge filter, install a 20mm (¾”) Ball Valve (not included) in the 20mm (¾”) Hose on the output side of the Venturi...

2.5 INSTALL HYDROXZONE SUPPLY TUBE 2.5.1. The Hydroxzone unit is supplied with sufficient braided supply tube which may be cut to length. Ensure sufficient slack in the supply tube. Do not extend the length of the braided supply tube. 2.5.2. For installations where the Hydroxzone unit is installed 400mm above the highest point of the filter system, cut the polybraided line to a minimum of 600mm from the Hydroxzone unit and install the check valve with the concave shape facing the direction of the Venturi Injector, (Make sure you can blow air through the Check...

Hydroxzone Ozone Generator I pg 07 2.5.4. Connect the polybraided hose to the barb on the side of the Hydroxzone Ozone Generator. (see Figure 2.6). 2.6 Connecting polybraid hose to Hydroxzone 2.5.5. For flooded installations or where the Hydroxzone is installed below 400mm above the highest point of the filter system, two (2) check valves and a drain must be installed as follows: (see Figure 2.7)
2-7 Installation on flooded condition 2.6 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION Hydroxzone ozone generator is designed to operate on either 120 or 240 VAC, 50/60 HZ. Connect theHydroxzone ozone generator either to the circulation pump switch or timer. Hydroxzone ozone generator unit and circulation pump should be started simultaneously. Refer to national electrical codes or local code grounding and installation procedures for swimming pool equipment.
I pg 09 3. HydrOXZONe MaiNTeNaNce The Hydroxzone ozone generator is rated to last 20,000 hours of continuous operation. Start up and shut down cycles should be kept to a minimum to extend the life of the lamp. The U/V lamp within the Hydroxzone will provide up to 80% of the maximum output for the system right up until the lamp stop working.
