How does the PR1300 control metalworking coolant?
The PR1300 generates Ozone and injects it into the coolant to kill bacteria and mold to a level below the nuisance level. It manages the bacteria and mold levels but does not give a 100% kill. Ozone is generated electrically and therefore adds no chemicals into the treated coolant. What is OZONE? Ozone is active oxygen, O3. It occurs naturally in the Earth’s atmosphere to protect us from the Sun’s harmful rays. What are some uses for Ozone? Some common uses for Ozone are: Drinking water purification, waste water purification, air freshening, pool & spa water purification, coolant control. How long has Ozone been used to purify water? Ozone has been used to purify water since the late 1800’s. How is Ozone produced? Ozone can be produced in a number of ways; however, the most common method is by Ultraviolet Light. How is Ozone generated by Ultraviolet Light? A special lamp gives off a specific wavelength of ultraviolet light which converts Oxygen (O2) molecules into ACTIVE OXYGEN (Ozone)
