Ozone is only dangerous if used irresponsibly, therefore it is important to follow the guidelines detailed in this manual. Due to the high levels of Ozone produced by the unit it is strongly recommended that no person or animal be in the room when the unit is running.
3.0 UNIT DESCRIPTION The AM5000 series of generator is designed to convert Oxygen found in the normal air into Ozone. It does this using the Corona Discharge (CD) principle, where air is blown over a ceramic plate with a stainless steel electrode, known as an open cell.
The output setting of the unit will depend upon the model of generator used, the volume of the room to be treated and the level of Ozone required. The Ozone level achieved in a room will depend on the room size, temperature, humidity, the number of air changes, the length of time the Ozone generator is run and the output setting.
