Chlorine Gas Filter

General
To ensure 100% function of chlorinators they have to be protected against dirt. Chlorine gas filters are
used to catch out particles out of the chlorine gas flow.

The filter element is a hollow cylinder made of ceramic. The chlorine flow is from outside of the
cylinder to indide.

A second function is the separation of liquid drops of chlorine. They will be evaporated with help of
temperature from the atmosphere.

Maintenance
If there are no rules/specifications (e.g. GUV 8.15) or special annotations prescribing shorter
maintenance intervals, all JESCO chlorinators have to be maintained and tested by an authorized
specialist firm at least once a year.

Preferably this should happen at the beginning of a high-rate period, prior to a downtime or a restart.
When the filter element gets dirty, the pressure loss will get higher. To ensure a sufficent chlorine flow
the filter element should be replaced every year in normal cases. If the chorine is very dirty, it should
be replaced more frequent.

At replacement of filterelements the O-rings should be exanged, too.
