Electrolytic cell for the generation of hypo halogenites for water treatment

摘要

Electrolytic hypohalogenite generator for water treatment comprising a closed chamber made of a base (1) above which an electrode chamber (2) is placed. The base (1) has the means required to install it in the hydraulic system where the electrolyte inlet (13) and outlet (14) are located, as well as an electrode chamber (2) located above the inlet and the outlet, in internal communication with them, giving the electrolyte an inverted "U"-shape course between the inlet (13) and the outlet (14). The electrolyte chamber (2) an internal set of electrodes (4) over which the electrolysis occurs and whose terminals (5, 6) communicate outside through a hole (68) in the electrode chamber, with external electrically conducting contacts for the electrical connection of the electrode (4) terminals (5, 6) and for grounding (57) at the power supply. The base (1) has an internal transversely placed vertical barrier (15) made of two transversal walls separated by a top gutter (16) with a centralized vertical passing slit (17) running from the top to its mid-height, so that the base (1) is divided into two symmetrically equal sub-chambers, an inlet chamber adjacent to the inlet hole (13) and an outlet chamber adjacent to the outlet hole (14). The chamber is (2) bell-shaped, and is occupied by a beam (4) formed by two sets of electrodes (36, 37). The first set (36) is electrically connected to a terminal (5) and the second set is also electrically connected to a terminal (6). Each of these sets of electrodes (36, 37) extend vertically from a first wall (31) of the electrode chamber to the opposite wall (31). The sets of electrodes (36, 37) are kept in place by at least one toothed rod (40) which supports the electrodes above the vertical barrier (15) of the base (1). IMAGE
