ABSTRACT:
An electrolytic pool chlorinator for chlorinating a swimming pool includes a water distribution chamber which automatically distributes fresh pool water to a brine tank, to a cathode chamber, and to a packed column in which liberated chlorine gas is intermixed with pool water before being returned to the pool. The water distribution chamber includes a first compartment for continuously receiving pool water and having a hole therein for distributing water to the brine tank. A second compartment contiguous with the first compartment of the water distribution chamber receives pool water which spills over from the first compartment. A conduit conveys water from the second compartment to the cathode chamber for continuously diluting the concentration of sodium hydroxide therein. The conduit delivers pool water to the cathode chamber at a controlled rate and at a point relatively remote from the cathode to prevent calcium deposit formations upon the cathode. An overflow conduit communicating with the cathode chamber continuously flushes excess concentrations of sodium hydroxide and maintains the proper level of catholyte. A replaceable ion-permeable membrane assembly is secured over the open end of the cathode chamber tube by a circular nut to permit convenient replacement of the membrane. Pool water received by the chlorinator is used to cool the electrical power supply components of the chlorinator, and a safety thermostatic switch deactivates the chlorinator if the flow of pool water is interrupted.
