4.2.2 Vacuum chlorine gas dosing system Fig. 10 Principle of a vacuum chlorine gas dosing system Vacuum regulator (B) Pos. Description The vacuum regulator is a pressure reducing valve, which reduces the overpressure from the chlorine tank side to the Chlorine cylinder negative pressure on the vacuum side.
5. Assembly and installation 5.1 Selection of vacuum lines Warning Observe section 1. Safety instructions. The vacuum needed for the transport of chlorine gas is built up by the injector, and maintained by the vacuum lines. Rigid PVC pipes or flexible PE hoses are used as vacuum lines. The following tables show the recommended diameter of vacuum lines, depending on the line length and dosing quantity.
5.2 Connecting the vacuum regulator 5.3 Connecting the liquid trap (option) Warning Make sure that the mains voltage indicated on the name plate corresponds with the local voltage. Before connecting, make sure that the valves of all Wrong voltage can lead to damages of the product. chlorine containers are closed.
