ABSTRACT:
An ion generator for use in a pool filtration system. The generator uses very thin electrodes placed close together. The electrodes are oriented perpendicular to the flow of a chloride salt/water solution. A baffle is provided immediately upstream of the electrodes to create a turbulent flow of jetted water over the electrodes. Periodically, DC polarity to the electrodes is reversed and an AC ripple is caused at the electrodes. The electrodes generate very active chlorine ions in solution which serve as a biocide, without creating harmful chlorine gases.
