Properties of Ozone
Ozone is the most powerful oxidizer available that can be safely used in water treatment1. It is used to treat
drinking water, bottled water, swimming pool water, waste water, food and beverage processing water, and in
many other applications. Ozone is effective in performing the following:
• Ozone creates no potentially harmful by-products (such as THMs) – the only by-
product is oxygen.

Safety Information
Safety Warnings
Two aspects of ClearWater Tech ozone generators represent potential dangers – ozone gas and high voltage
electricity.
ClearWater Tech corona discharge ozone generators take line voltage and convert it DC current. A high voltage
transformer then boosts the voltage. While each ozone generator has a cover safety switch and other safety
interlocks, proper care must be used by a qualified electrician when making any internal adjustments or
performing any maintenance procedures.

Theory of Operation/Product Description
• The second type is low pressure swing adsorption (LPSA) dry air technology which operates in the same way
as the PSA oxygen system but only delivers 20% oxygen purity at -60 to -90˚F dew point. The LPSA system is
rated with a continuous duty cycle in conditions up to 90% relative humidity non-condensing.
• The third type is a heat regenerative dry air system. The heat regenerative system operates via a vacuum
which draws in ambient air and dries it to a -10 to -20˚F dew point at 20% oxygen purity. The CD10/AD and
CD12/AD (“AD” represents Air Dryer) incorporate a heat regenerative air dryer system, rated with a duty
cycle of no more than 10 hours of operation in a 24 hour period in conditions up to 75% relative humidity non-
condensing. Due to the operation of the internal air dryer, continuous power must be applied to the CD10/AD
and CD12/AD for proper operation. As the ambient air travels through the dryer chambers the sieve material
inside traps the moisture from the air and allows the oxygen to pass to the ozone reaction chamber. The heat,
generated by the heating rods inside the dryer chamber, then evaporates the moisture that has been trapped in
the sieve and expels off the top of the sieve bed. The two dryer chambers and attached 3-way solenoid valve
operate on a timed cycle. Dryer chamber 1 heats first evaporating moisture for 1-1/2 hours, while the solenoid
is energized allowing the vacuum from the venturi to draw air flow through dryer chamber 2. During this time
the “AIR PREP” LED will flash and “DRYER 1” LED will be illuminated continuously. After the 1-1/2 hours
there is a 1/2 hour cool down period, power to dryer chamber 1 will be discontinued, correspondingly
“DRYER 1” LED will not be illuminated. Note: The “AIR PREP” LED will remain flashing throughout
the cycle. After the cool down period dryer chamber 2 will heat and the solenoid valve will de-energize,
allowing vacuum from the venturi to draw air flow through dryer chamber 1. During this time the “AIR
PREP” LED will flash and “DRYER 2” LED will be illuminated continuously. After 1-1/2 hours there is a 1/2
hour cool down period when power to dryer chamber 2 will be discontinued; correspondingly, “DRYER 2”
LED will not be illuminated. After this 1/2 hour cool down, the air dryer cycle will repeat.
If “Plant Air” feed gas is to be used in place of a ClearWater Tech air preparation system, the same air quality
standards must be met to achieve the ozone output and longevity of the ozone generator. A pounds per square
inch (PSI) regulator must be installed when using plant air feed gas. This regulator must be set to a maximum of 5
PSI.
The type of air preparation will effect ozone production in grams per hour and, more importantly, ozone
concentration - also known as “percent by weight.” Since ozone is produced with oxygen, the greater the percent
of oxygen that enters the ozone generator, producing more grams per hour and concentration of ozone. Since a
PSA oxygen concentrator has an oxygen output that is nearly four and a half times greater than a standard air
dryer, it will yield the highest grams per hour with the highest concentrations. Greater ozone concentration
equates to higher solubility of the ozone gas in solution, which will yield a greater oxidation potential.
Ozone Generator
The feed gas produced by the either the PSA or LPSA air preparation system is supplied to the ClearWater Tech
ozone generator at a maximum pressure of 5 pounds per square inch (PSI). Note: If a heat regenerative air
dryer is used the feed gas will be at drawn through the ozone generator under vacuum. An external air flow
meter and vacuum gauge is recommended to be used to control and monitor the air flow and vacuum through the
ozone generator. At this point, the feed gas is drawn through the ozone generator by the vacuum created at the
ozone injector rather than by the pressure from the air preparation system compressors.
As the feed gas enters the thermally-protected reaction chambers inside the ozone generator, some of the oxygen
molecules are split while passing through the high voltage electrical field (the “corona”), forming single oxygen
atoms (O1). These oxygen atoms then recombine with other oxygen molecules in the air stream, forming ozone.
Depending on the application, the ClearWater Tech ozone generator may be interlocked with an oxidation
reduction potential (ORP) or parts per million (PPM) controller, pressure switch flow switch, timer, or circulation

pump. Many safety features are also built in, including main power fuses, thermal protection, cover safety switch,
and back flow prevention.
Ozone Injection/Contacting
The ozone injector serves two purposes. One, it creates the
vacuum required to safely draw the ozone gas from the ozone
generator and two, it provides a means by which the ozone gas
can become dissolved in water. A very dynamic injection
process is required to effectively dissolve ozone in water.
ClearWater Tech injection systems use only Mazzei® injectors
for maximum mass transfer efficiency. The injector produces a
cavitation effect, enabling the ozone gas to join the water stream
in the form of extremely tiny bubbles. These bubbles must be as
small as possible in order to increase the ratio of bubble surface
area to the amount of ozone entering the water.
Depending on the application and the water treatment goals, a ClearWater Tech contacting system may also be
required. Some oxidation reactions take place so quickly that they are limited only by the rate at which the ozone
is dissolved in the water. Other reactions, such as disinfection, may require that proper ozone residual be
maintained for a specific amount of time. A correctly sized contact vessel is used for this purpose.
Ozone Destruct
The ClearWater Tech off-gas destruct systems consist of two components: the ozone destruct unit (a heated
chamber filled with manganese dioxide and copper oxide) and a water trap. Used in conjunction with a
ClearWater Tech off gas vent, the ozone destruct system is an effective way to vent the contact vessel(s) when it
is impractical to send the off gas to atmosphere or reintroduce it to the water.

Installation Procedures – Getting Started
Unpacking
Compare the ozone system equipment received to the packing list provided. Before
beginning any installation procedures, thoroughly inspect all components for
damage. If damage is noticed, promptly notify the freight carrier and request an on-
site inspection. Inspect all packing materials for small parts before discarding.
Inspect all plumbing, fittings and tubing for packing material that may have
become lodged in openings.
Equipment Placement
When placing the ozone system components in the equipment room, make sure to consider safety, maintenance
requirements, local building and fire codes, etc. The components should be easily accessible by the operators,
including equipment access doors and electrical hook-up boxes. All meters, gauges, indicator lights, and switches
should be visible and accessible. Dimensional drawings of the air preparation system and ozone generator are
included in Section A of the Appendix.
The air preparation system and ozone generator should be located as close as possible to the point of ozone
injection (with in 20 feet is recommended). Ozone is an unstable gas and will begin reverting back to oxygen very
quickly. To determine the most favorable ozone injection point, the following items should be considered:
• Located downstream of all other existing water system components.
• Located upstream of the residual sanitizer injection point (if so equipped).
• In a Side stream plumbing configuration (see Figure 2) with recirculation, the pH adjustment chemical
injection point must be located downstream of the residual sanitizer injection point (if so equipped).
• In a Full Flow plumbing configuration (see Figure 3) without recirculation, locate downstream of the pH
adjustment chemical injection point.
• Adequate protection from weather, dust and excessive heat.
Like any electronic component, performance and longevity is enhanced by favorable operating conditions. Also,
since each air preparation system and ozone generator is air-cooled, a relatively dust-free, well-ventilated area is
required. No caustic chemicals should be stored in the area surrounding the equipment. A minimum clearance of
six inches from the vents on either side of the ozone generator is required.
The equipment is heavy and requires proper support. Therefore, a clean, dry, level surface should be provided for
the air preparation system and ozone generator. These components should be securely fastened to the surface
using the mounting holes and/or tabs provided.
The air preparation system and ozone generator are not designed to withstand outdoor elements, including direct
contact with water and/or temperature extremes. Therefore, the equipment must be installed in an environment
consistent with the following operating parameters:
• Ambient temperature range: 20°F to 95°F continuous. If the temperature around the equipment consistently
exceeds 95°F, additional air-cooling must be provided.
• Humidity: 0 - 90% relative humidity, non-condensing environment. Warning: 0 - 75% relative humidity,
non-condensing environment, must be observed for any heat regenerative air dryer.
• Line voltage: +/-10% of rated input
Note: Equipment installed in extreme environmental conditions will void manufacturer's warranty.
Allow room for the peripheral equipment (booster pump, injector manifold, contact vessel, etc.)
-9-
Installation Procedures – Plumbing
The ozone system should be plumbed using either a side stream or full flow
configuration. The side stream loop method takes a portion of the water from the main
flow (see Figure 2) and diverts it into a side stream downstream of the filter (if so
equipped). Ozone is introduced into the side stream water and is allowed contact time
with the water before it is returned to the main flow at a point downstream of all other
equipment (heaters, solar panels, etc., if so equipped) in the circulation system. A
booster pump is usually employed to compensate for the flow restriction caused by the side stream loop and the
injector manifold. If a halogen-type residual sanitizer is utilized, its injection point should be as far downstream as
possible from the point at which the side stream water returns to the main flow. In a full flow configuration, the
same system components are usually involved and appear in the same order with respect to the direction of flow.
However, all the water in the main flow is allowed contact time with the ozone (see Figure 3). A booster pump
may be necessary to maintain proper flow requirements. If employed, the booster pump is located upstream of the
point at which the ozone injector manifold is installed.

Step 1: Arrange the ozone system equipment (booster pump, injector and contact vessel) according to
mechanical print or as dictated by equipment layout and serviceability considerations. Do not secure
booster pump(s) and contact vessel to housekeeping pads at this point. Dry fit plumbing as appropriate
to insure proper fit and location before making permanent connections.
Step 2: Install a tee or plumbing saddle into the main water line after the filter (if so equipped) and before the
flow diversion mechanism. The purpose of the mechanism is to restrict water flow so water is diverted
into the side stream (see Figure 2). If such a mechanism is not present in the system (such as a heater
bypass valve, etc.), it will require installation of a valve (butterfly, gate or ball) or a flow controller.
Step 3: Plumb a line from the tee or plumbing saddle to the booster pump. For serviceability of the equipment in
the side stream loop, be sure to install an isolation valve between the tee or saddle and the booster pump.
Step 4: Plumb from the booster pump to the injector manifold. Make sure to note the correct direction of flow,
indicated by a blue arrow on the inlet side of the manifold body. The check valve assembly is strapped to
the manifold using wire ties. Remove the assembly; using Teflon® tape, install it onto the top opening of
the injector.
-10-
Installation Procedures - Plumbing
Step 5: Plumb from the injector manifold to the inlet side of the contact vessel. To reduce possible backpressure
to the injector, minimize the number of elbows between the injector manifold and contact vessel. The
contact vessel is a specified size, determined by water flow requirements. ClearWater Tech contact
columns and the 30, 40, 80, and 120-gallon contact tanks have inlet and outlet fittings on the bottom of
the vessel(s) and are designated with arrows showing the direction of flow. Note: The inlet and outlet
arrows on the contact tanks are under the base of the tank. The inlet on the 264, 463 and 850-gallon
tanks is located at the top with the outlet at the bottom.
Step 6: Using a tee or plumbing saddle, plumb from the outlet of the contact vessel back into the main water
line. For serviceability of the equipment in the side stream loop, be sure to install an isolation valve
between the outlet fitting on the contact vessel and before returning to the main water line.
Step 7: Secure the booster pump and contact vessel to solid mounting surfaces using appropriate hardware and
according to local codes. If installing a ClearWater Tech contact column, use a ClearWater Tech contact
column mounting kit and install according to the instructions below. If installing a contact tank, secure to
a solid horizontal surface using mounting flange or feet
Step 8: Install the contact vessel venting system into the top of the vessel. If using the ClearWater Tech contact
column, the vent kit supplied includes fittings, a control valve and Teflon® tubing. The contact tank
venting system includes an air relief valve, fittings and a length of Teflon® tubing. Depending on
conditions, the vented gas may be directed to an ozone destruct system, to atmosphere or to the low-
pressure side of the water system. Note: Do not direct the tubing to the suction side of any pump in
the system.

operation of the on-board air dryer.
Step 1: Conforming to all local, state and national electrical codes, ground the ozone generator to a true earth
ground. Use solid copper bonding wire (usually #6 AWG) from the copper-bonding lug located on the
bottom of the ozone generator to the grounding point.
Step 2: Main Power: Plug in the IEC end of the power cord CD10 and CD12 Series Power Consumption
to the power entry module located at the bottom of Input Voltage 90-250VAC 47-63Hz
the ozone generator. The other end can be plugged CD10 1.1 - 0.7 amps
into any main power source with input voltage from CD10/AD 2.2 - 1.1 amps
90 to 250 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz, single phase. Note:
CD12 1.7 – 1.0 amps
The CD10/AD and CD12/AD must be energized by
CD12/AD 3.2 - 1.6 amps
a constant unswitched power source.
Step 3: External Loop (EXT LOOP): The external loop, noted on the front cover LED display as “EXT
LOOP”, is a true dry contact interface. Note: The term ‘dry contact’ means that this loop does not
supply output nor except input voltages. Warning: Supplying voltage to the external loop will
cause damage to the ozone generator and void warranty. Under normal operation the external loop
will effectively interrupt the ozone output, when the loop has lost continuity, this will also illuminate the
“EXT LOOP” LED and turn off the “Ozone Output” LED’s on the front cover. Note: When the
external loop has lost continuity main power to the ozone generator will remain “ON” giving
power to the cooling fan and the internal air dryer of the CD10/AD and CD12/AD. When continuity
is present through the external loop ozone, output will continue. This continuity will effectively turn
“OFF” the “EXT LOOP” LED and will again illuminate the “Ozone Output” LED’s.
The external loop, a removable two-position plug with a white 18AWG wire located at the bottom panel
of the ozone generator (see Appendix, Section A), can be interfaced to any control device, i.e. pressure
switch, vacuum switch, flow switch, float switch, ORP controller, PPM controller, or timer. To interface
a control device to the external loop, cut the white 18AWG wire in half. Connect the control device to
each leg of the external loop. Note: External Loop control devices supplied by ClearWater Tech
may come equipped with a two-position male connector ready to be plugged into the female two-
position connector mounted to the chassis of the ozone generator. If the control device used supplies
-14-
Installation Procedures - Electrical
an output voltage a single pole single throw (SPST) normally open relay may be used to create a dry
contact interface (see Figure 6). Note: Attached to the white 18 AWG external loop is a warning,
“THIS CONNECTION IS A DRY CONTACT ONLY, DO NOT APPLY VOLTAGE”.
Step 4: Ozone Output Control: The CD10 and CD12 Series ozone generators are equipped with two options
for controlling the ozone output. The first is a manual 0-100% ozone output control and the second
option is a remote 4-20mA control signal. The manual ozone output control knob and remote 4-20mA
control leads (orange and purple), are located at the bottom of the ozone generator (see Appendix,
Section A).
1. Manual Ozone Output Control: Turning the control knob counterclockwise will decrease the ozone
output to down 0%, while turning the knob clockwise will increase the ozone output up to 100%. The
percent of ozone output is indicated by the “Ozone Output” LEDs on the front of the ozone generator,
with each LED representing 10% output (see Figure 11).
2. Remote 4-20mA Control: A 4-20mA control signal to the ozone generator may be used to control
the ozone generator output. The ozone generator will automatically sense the 4-20mA input signal and
override the setting of the manual ozone output control. Based on the 4-20mA signal, ozone output
will increase or decrease: 4mA = 0% ozone output, 20mA = 100% ozone output. The percent of ozone
output is indicated by the “Ozone Output” LEDs on the front of the ozone generator, with each LED
representing 10% output (see Figure 11). Note: If the remote 4-20mA signal fails or is missing, the
system will default to the manual ozone output setting. Check and adjust the manual ozone
output control knob to avoid over-ozonation.
Step 1: Mount the 4-20mA controller to a suitable vertical surface according to the installation
manual supplied with the controller.
Step 2: Wire the #22 AWG orange “positive” (+) lead from the ozone generator to the 4-20mA
controller according to the manual supplied with the controller.
Step 3: Wire the #22 AWG purple “negative” (-) lead from the ozone generator to the 4-20mA
controller according to the manual supplied with the controller.
Step 4: Complete the required programming and calibration steps as outlined in the installation
manual supplied with the 4-20mA controller.
Step 5: Air Preparation System Power - CD10 and CD12 only: 120VAC systems only: if a PSA oxygen
concentrator LPSA dry air system is used, plug power cord into main power. 240VAC systems only: if a
PSA oxygen concentrator or LPSA dry air system is used, the power cord must be hard wired to the
main power source (Black-L1, White-L2 and Green-Ground). Notes: The prescribed air flow must be
set to “atmospheric pressure” on either the PSA oxygen concentrator or LPSA dry air system
prior to use. Follow Step 4 of the “Start-up & Calibration” section. Warnings: Failure to calibrate
may lead to premature failure of the air preparation systems. Vacuum must be interrupted if the
air prep system is not “ON.” Failure to do so will damage the air prep system.
Air Preparation System - CD10/AD and CD12/AD only: The air dryer of the CD10/AD and
CD12/AD is powered by the main power of the unit.

Installation Procedures – Pneumatic
This section outlines the steps required to complete the ozone system pneumatic hook-ups. The system
components include the air preparation system, ozone generator, vacuum break, and ozone injector manifold (see
Figure 7). The air preparation system provides the ozone generator with a source of oil-free oxygen-enriched air
(90% +/- 3% oxygen purity at -100˚F dew point) or dry air (20% oxygen purity). The air is drawn from the ozone
generator (where ozone is produced from the oxygen in the air stream) and through the vacuum break by the
suction created at the ozone injector manifold.

Hook-Ups: Ozone generator-to-vacuum break & vacuum break-to-injector manifold
The ClearWater Tech vacuum break provides a positive atmospheric “break” between the ozone injector manifold
and the ozone generator, preventing water from flowing back into the ozone generator should the venturi check
valve fail. Under normal operating conditions, the vacuum break's flapper valve (see Figure 9) is closed, allowing
the vacuum created by the venturi to draw the output gas from the ozone generator. If the check valve at the
venturi begins to leak or fails completely, vacuum is interrupted and water will flow toward the ozone generator.
With the vacuum break properly installed between the venturi and the ozone generator, the water will flow down
the riser tube (away from the ozone generator) and out to drain, protecting the ozone generator from potential
water damage.
Step 1: Select a suitable vertical surface that is accessible and in close proximity to both the ozone generator and
the ozone injector manifold.
Step 2: Install the two Clic® mounting clamps provided onto the vertical surface so that the vacuum break is in a
vertical position and the drain holes are below the level of the ozone generators ozone outlet fitting. One
clamp should be located so it fits around the Riser Tube Elbow, and the other so it fits around the bottom
of the Lower Tee, (see Figure 9).
Step 3: Remove the Fill Port Cap located on top of the Riser Tube and fill the Riser Tube with clean water (no
particulate matter) to "Fill Level" line (see Figure 9).
Step 4: Re-install the Fill Port Cap, using pliers or a wrench to tighten. Note: Do not over- tighten as damage to
PVC fittings may occur.
Step 5: Install the check valve with compression fitting (located in the parts kit or attached to the ozone generator
with a wire tie) into the stainless steel ozone outlet located at the bottom of the ozone generator.
Step 6: Connect one end of a suitable length of Teflon® ozone delivery line to the fittings installed into the ozone
outlets (see Step 5 above). Attach the other end of the Teflon® delivery line to the fitting threaded into
the Upper Tee. As an additional backflow prevention measure, loop this length of tubing as high as is
practical between the two connection points.
Step 7: Connect one end of a second length of Teflon® delivery line to the fitting threaded into the Lower Tee.
Attach the other end of the delivery line to the fitting located on top of the check valve assembly, which
was installed at the injector manifold.
Step 8: Adjustments to the valve on the ozone injector manifold will be necessary. These steps are covered in
Chapter 7, “Start-up and Calibration Procedures.”

Start-Up and Calibration
The previous sections of this manual have involved comparatively static procedures:
making electrical and pneumatic connections, fitting pipe, etc. This section involves
the dynamic process of starting up and balancing the components of the ozone system,
including initiating water flow, making air and water flow adjustments, etc.
Maximum performance and reliability is achieved when the prescribed air flow is maintained at the ozone
generator while the system is operating under a slight vacuum (measured in inches of mercury, or “in.Hg”). Air
from the air preparation system is flowing toward the ozone generator under pressure, and from the ozone
generator under vacuum (created by the ozone injector manifold). The change from pressure to vacuum occurs at
the SCFH/vacuum gauge assembly mounted to the CD10 or CD12. Note: If an external heat regenerative dry
air system, CD10/AD, or the CD12/AD is used, the air flow will be completely dependant upon the vacuum
draw of the ozone injector manifold. If the vacuum level is too high but air flow levels are correct, opening the
ball valve on the injector manifold(s) slightly will decrease the vacuum by increasing the amount of water flowing
through the bypass of the ozone injector manifold. Similarly, if the vacuum level is too low, closing the ball valve
on the injector manifold(s) slightly will increase the vacuum.
-22-
Start-Up and Calibration
Step 5: Using the ClearWater Tech SCFH/vacuum gauge assembly, check
the VAC/PSI gauge for vacuum. If the needle is in the red zone on
the pressure (PSI) side of the gauge, gradually close the ball valve
on the injector manifold until the needle moves into the green zone.
If the needle is in the red zone on the vacuum (in.Hg) side of the
gauge, gradually open the ball valve on the injector manifold until
the needle moves into the green zone. While vacuum is in the green
zone you must be able to achieve proper Standard Cubic Feet per
Hour (SCFH) of air flow (see the “Pneumatic Operating
Parameters, Ozone generator air flow,” Figure 12).
Step 6: Using the ball valve on the ozone injector manifold and the air flow adjustment valve on the ozone
generator, make final adjustments to vacuum and air flow levels.
Step 7: Perform a final check of all air connections from the air preparation system to the ozone injector
manifold. Repair leaks as required. Check all system water connections, including the ozone injector
manifold, vacuum break and contact vessel. Repair leaks as required. Note: The check valve at the
ozone generator and ozone injector manifold may make a humming noise. This is normal.
Step 8: Observe all indicating LEDs on the front cover of the ozone generator (see Figure 11) for proper
operation and adjust the manual ozone output knob to desired level setting.

Start-Up and Calibration
Vacuum Break
Check the water level in the vacuum break, making sure it is above the flapper valve (see Figure 9). If water is not
pressing downward on the flapper valve it will open, causing a loss of vacuum. The water level in the vacuum
break should remain static with no air bubble movement. A loss of vacuum means ozone cannot be drawn
through the vacuum break, which in turn can cause an ozone leak (see Troubleshooting Guide).
-25-
Maintenance
Maintenance of the ozone system is critical to its longevity and operating efficiency. While all
system components are built to provide years of reliable service with minimum maintenance,
following the procedures outlined below is strongly recommended.
All maintenance procedures have been segmented by interval: daily, monthly, semi-annual
and annual. Daily procedures involve quick visual checks for changes in normal operating
conditions. Monthly, semi-annual and annual procedures include cleaning and/or replacement of certain critical
parts.
NOTES:
• The ozone generator warranty states that it • CAUTION: Observe all common safety
“does not extend to any product or part which practices and review the “Safety Warnings

have any questions about any maintenance
procedure before you begin that procedure.
Daily Procedures
Air Preparation System
• Power Switch: Check the power switch on the air preparation system (if so equipped), or inline particulate filter
inside the ozone generator (see Appendix A). Note: The air prep system must always have main power
when vacuum is being drawn through the ozone system.
• Indicator Cartridge: Inspect the air preparation system indicator cartridge (if so equipped). A change in the blue
crystals to light pink or white in color indicates the presence of moisture in the feed gas coming from the air
preparation system. If such a change is observed, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.
• Air Flow: Check the air flow gauge on the air preparation system (see Figure 8). Make sure the air flow is
within the SCFH range shown on the “Air prep system air flow” line of the “Pneumatic Operating Parameters”
chart (Figure 12). Adjust if necessary by following Step 4 of the “Start-Up & Calibration” section.
Ozone Generator
• Indicator Lights: Check the indicator lights on the ozone generator. (see Figure 11 for Ozone Generator LED
Display function)
• Air Flow: Check the SCFH/vacuum gauge assembly attached to the ozone generator. Make sure air flow is
within the SCFH range shown on the “Ozone generator air flow” line of the “Pneumatic Operating Parameters”
(see Figure 12). Adjust if necessary by following Step 5-6 of the “Start-Up & Calibration” section.
• Vacuum: Check the SCFH/vacuum gauge assembly attached to the ozone generator. Make sure pressure is
within then range shown on the “Pressure” line of the “Pneumatic Operating Parameters” chart (see Figure 12).
Adjust if necessary by following Step 5-6 of the “Start-Up & Calibration” section.
-26-
Maintenance
Vacuum Break
• Water Level: Check the water level in the vacuum break. Make sure it is up to the fill line. Fill as required by
removing the threaded fitting on top of the riser tube until water is up to the fill level in the riser tube (see
Figure 9).
Injection Manifold
• Check valve: Inspect the Teflon ozone delivery line that runs between the vacuum break and the check valve
assembly on the suction port of the ozone injector manifold. If water is observed in the delivery line near the
check valve assembly, the check valve has failed. See Troubleshooting Guide.
Ozone Destruct System
• Water Trap: Check water trap for excessive water. It should be no more than half full. If excessive water is
observed, see Troubleshooting Guide.
• Ozone Destruct Unit: Check to make sure the power indicator light located on the right side of the unit is
illuminated. Note: Unit must be plugged into an unswitched outlet. Cover of unit will be warm to the
touch.
Monthly Procedures

CAUTION: Follow system shutdown procedures (outlined above) before performing any of the following
steps.
Air Preparation System
• Air Inlet Filter, PSA Oxygen Concentrator or LPSA Dry Air - Replace the air compressor inlet filter on the air
preparation system module (see Figure 8). Note: Manufacturers' recommended replacement interval is
4,000 hours of operation. Operating conditions in the equipment area will dictate the required frequency
of this procedure.
Annual Procedures
CAUTION: Follow system shutdown procedures before performing any of the following steps.
Air Preparation System
• Compressors, PSA Oxygen Concentrator or LPSA Dry Air: Following the procedures outlined in the
compressor rebuild kit, rebuild the two compressor heads on each air preparation system module. Note:
Manufacturers' recommended interval is 5,000 to 12,000 hours of operation. Compressor performance
and/or operating conditions in the equipment area will dictate the required frequency of this procedure.
• Air Dryer: CD10/AD and CD12/AD only: Replace sieve material according to the steps outlined below (see
Figure 14). Note: You will need to remove the unit from the wall in order to pour out the media. Allow
the air dryer chambers to cool completely and read all steps before continuing.
Step 1: Straighten out the ends of the dryer chambers using pliers.
Step 2: Using a snap ring tool, remove the top snap rings.
Step 3: Remove the top screens; the o-ring pick is handy for this. The bottom snap ring may be left
remaining within the air dryer chambers.
Step 4: Turn the ozone generator over to pour the old sieve material from the dryer chambers and dispose.
Note: When removing the sieve material, be sure not to discard the bottom screens.
Step 5: Re-seat/Re-install the bottom screens. Note: The heater rod must be put through the center of the
bottom screens.
Step 6: Fill chamber with new sieve material to 3/4” to 1” below the top of the dryer chambers. You will
have more media than needed.
Step 7: Re-install the top screens.
Step 8: Using a snap ring tool, place the top snap rings snug against the top screen.
Step 9: Bend the ends of the dryer chambers in-ward for added retention of the sieve material (optional).
Step 10: The ozone generator must be turned on for 24 hours prior to system start-up to eliminate any moisture
trapped in the new sieve material.

Maintenance
Indicating Media Replacement (CD10/AD only)
Step 1: Using wrench, loosen and disconnect the compression fitting located at the top of the indicating media
chamber.
Step 2: With a flat-head screwdriver, unlock the two gray clamps securing the indicating media chamber.
Step 3: Pull the chamber free of the clamps, the chamber will only be held within the unit by the bottom cap.
Rotate the chamber downwards to position the bottom cap to be at the top of the chamber.
Step 4: Secure the bottom cap with channel lock pliers and turn the chamber counter-clockwise to unscrew it.
Be mindful to not spill the indicating media.
Step 5: Remove the indicating chamber from the unit, remove the interior screen and dispose of the media.
Step 6: Remove the Teflon tape from the bottom cap’s threads and re-tape the threads with 2-3 wraps.
Step 7: Refill the indicating chamber with new blue and white indicating crystals. You will have more media
than needed.
Step 8: Replace the interior screen and reinstall the chamber following steps 1 through 4 in reverse order.
Ozone Generators
• Cooling Filters: Clean or replace the cooling fan filter elements as required.
• Inline Particulate Filter: Replace the inline particulate filter.
• Reaction Chambers: Remove and disassemble the reaction chamber according to the steps outlined below (see
Figure 15). Check the chamber interior and dielectric tube for oil, dirt or moisture.
Reaction Chamber Removal and Disassembly
Note: Read through all the steps before disassembling the reaction chamber.
Step 1: Make sure all power to the ozone generator has been disconnected according to the “System Shutdown
Procedures” outlined above.
Step 2: Disconnect the high voltage lead from the reaction chamber(s).
Step 3: Disconnect the tubing connections on both ends of the reaction chamber(s).
Step 4: Remove the 4 nuts securing each chamber and remove the reaction chamber from ozone generator.
Step 5: Make note or mark the position of the end caps and their elbow fittings on the reaction chambers, during
re-assembly the end caps will need to return to original positions. Note: The orientation of the end
caps and the chamber itself is different between the two CD12 chambers.
Step 6: Remove retaining screws and washers from the two end caps (3 each).
Step 7: Using a gentle back-and-forth twisting motion, remove the non-high voltage end cap (the one without
the high voltage attachment screw) from the heat sink/cathode assembly. A flat-head screwdriver may be
used to gently pry the end cap off, as long as equal pressure is applied to each side of the end cap.
Step 8: Remove the high voltage end cap and dielectric from the heat sink/cathode assembly.
Step 9: The high voltage end cap can be removed by holding the glass and turning the end cap counter-
clockwise approximately 6 turns. Pull the end cap off the glass. Push the contact brush out of the
dielectric glass. A screwdriver can be used to push the brush, and pliers to pull it out once the opposing
end is exposed.
Step 10: Inspect the dielectric, end caps and cathode for breakage, corrosion or debris; then follow the assembly
and re-installation steps below.
-29-
Maintenance
Reaction Chamber Assembly and Re-installation:
Step 1: Remove o-rings from end caps, clean the dielectric glass, end caps and interior of the stainless steel
cathode cylinder. Use denatured alcohol, shop towels to clean and be sure to remove all old o-ring
debris. A 1” ball hone can be used to clean the major debris out of the cathode if there is heavy buildup.
Step 2: Prepare the end caps for re-assembly by replacing the o-rings. Thread the hex brush adapter nut, with
contact brush attached, onto the end of the high voltage end cap (cap with the high voltage attachment
screw) center screw. Re-tape the threads of the elbow fittings if needed.
Step 3: Using a gentle twisting motion, press the non-high voltage end cap onto the heat sink/cathode assembly
until flush with the heat sink cooling fins. Turn the end cap to the correct orientation.
Step 4: Slide the three end cap retaining screws with washers through the holes in the non-high voltage end cap,
aligning them with the heat sink screw bosses. Thread screws into screw bosses until heads are snug
against the end cap.
Step 5: Next we focus on assembling the rest of the subcomponents, before installing them into the reaction
chamber. Slowly insert the brush (installed onto the high voltage end cap) into the dielectric glass. Note:
Go slowly in order to prevent or minimize bending the center wire of the brush during this
procedure. It is normal for the bristles to bend flat against the dielectric glass. Fully seat the dielectric
glass into the high voltage end cap. Clean the glass with denatured alcohol once more, and do not
retouch the glass without re-cleaning.
Step 6: Hold the reaction chamber upright on a flat surface, empty high voltage side up. Grasp the high voltage
end cap and lower the glass into the reaction chamber. Press directly downwards on the high voltage end
cap to fully seat the dielectric assembly; the end caps should be flush with the heat sink cooling fins.
Turn the end cap to the correct orientation.
Step 8: Slide the three end cap retaining screws with washers through the holes in the end cap, aligning them
with the heat sink screw bosses. Thread screws into screw bosses until heads are snug against the end
cap.
Step 9: Re-install the complete reaction chamber assembly into the ozone generator by securing the reaction
chamber to its mounts, securing delivery line and connecting the high voltage insulated wire.
Vacuum Break
• Cleaning: Disconnect ozone delivery lines. Remove the vacuum break from mounting clamps. Disconnect the
overflow tube from flapper valve, open flapper and clean the seat with a soft cloth. Remove riser tube threaded
fitting and flush riser tube with water. Re-assemble and re-install vacuum break, making sure to add water to
correct level (see Figure 9).
Injector Manifold
• Check Valve: Replace the check valve located at the ozone injection manifold. Note: Because the system is in
the shutdown mode, no vacuum is present at the injector. Therefore, it is normal for some water to be
flowing from the injector during this procedure.
-30-
Maintenance
Contact Vessel
• Cleaning, Contact Column only: Inspect the diffuser slots at the top of the contact column riser tube. If they are
clear, no further maintenance is required. If the slots are fouled, disassemble the column and clean as required,
following the steps outlined below (see Figure 5).
Step 1: Make sure the isolation valves before and after the contact column(s) are closed.
Step 2: Disconnect the vent line from the top of the contact column(s).
Step 3: Remove the bolts in the 6” base flange.
Step 4: Remove the column, lifting it over the interior riser tube.
Step 5: Remove and clean the diffuser.
Step 6: Inspect the flange gasket and replace if necessary.
Step 7: Reassemble the contact column and attach vent lines.
Ozone Destruct System
• Off-Gas Vent: Disconnect tubing from top of off-gas vent and remove vent from contact vessel. Disassemble
vent and clean inside thoroughly. The float assembly maybe disassembled cleaned, making sure all ports and
orifices are clean and free of debris. Clean O-rings or replace as required. Re-assemble and mount vent onto
the contact vessel
• Ozone Destruct Unit: Under normal operating conditions, this unit may require no annual maintenance.
However, if a strong odor of ozone can be detected in the air immediately surrounding the unit, the catalyst
may require replacement. Follow the directions included with the ozone destruct rebuild kit.

Any product and/or part not performing satisfactorily may be returned to CWT for evaluation. A Return Goods Authorization (RGA)
number must first be obtained by either calling or writing your local authorized dealer, distributor or CWT direct, prior to shipping the
product. The problem experienced with the product and/or part must be clearly described. The RGA number must appear prominently
on the exterior of the shipped box(es). The product and/or part must be packaged either in its original packing material or in
comparable and suitable packing material, if the original is not available. You are responsible for paying shipping charges to CWT and
for any damages to the product and/or part that may occur during shipment. It is recommended that you insure the shipment for the
amount you originally paid for the product and/or part.
If, after the product and/or part is returned prepaid and evaluated by CWT, it proves to be defective while under warranty, CWT will,
at its election, either repair or replace the defective product and/or part and will return ship at lowest cost transportation prepaid to you
except for shipments going outside the 50 states of the United States of America. If upon inspection, it is determined that there is no
defect or that the damage to the product and/or part resulted from causes not within the scope of this limited warranty, then you must
bear the cost of repair or replacement of damaged product and/or part and all return freight charges. Any unauthorized attempt by the
end user to repair CWT manufactured products without prior permission shall void any and all warranties. For service, contact your

resulting from such a defect. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so that
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
