TECHNICAL INFORMATION

S10K

SONIC CHLORINATOR

INTRODUCTIONThe S10k chlorinator is an all vacuum operat-

ed, sonically regulated unit. Direct cylinder

mounting puts the vacuum-regulating valve

right at the source, reducing gas pressure to a

vacuum immediately. It provides for econom-

ic low capacity gas feed applications for

municipal and industrial water and waste-

water treatment and disinfection, swimming

pools and industrial process water. Its ability to

handle all water treatment gases as well as its

flexible mounting configurations for cylinders,

manifolds or ton containers provides versatili-

ty for all installations. Two basic arrangements

are available in capacities of 200 and 500

pounds per day of chlorine gas. With fewer

internal parts, you can be confident that the

S10k will provide reliable, dependable service.

FEATURESPositive Indication of

Operating Status

Easy to read icons provide positive indi-

cation of cylinder status. The operator

can tell at a glance whether the container

is in the standby status (for automatic

switchover) operating, empty or off.

Positive Shutoff

An OFF position on the face of the regu-

lator allows for positive shutoff. Containers

can be changed without admitting air,

dirt or moisture into the control unit and

without shutting off the injector.

Unique Secondary Check

The 500 PPD regulator includes a

unique secondary check designed to

confine gas under pressure should the

primary valve seat not completely due to

contamination. This minimizes the

possibility of venting gas to atmosphere.

Built-in Automatic Switchover

Built-in switchover eliminates the need

for external switching devices. The non-

isolating feature allows cylinders to be

emptied thoroughly, for complete gas

consumption.

Captive Universal Yoke

Mounting

A unique self aligning captive yoke

clamp makes it easy to line up and con-

nect the chlorinator to the gasketed out-

let of a container valve. The rugged

yoke is designed to Chlorine Institute

recommenda-

tion per drawing

189. A similar

captive yoke

design is used for ammonia cylinders. A

ton container kit includes a drip leg, to

trap initial spurts of liquid, a heater for

evaporation and a replaceable filter.

Handles all Water Treatment

Gases

The unit can handle all typical water

treatment gases e.g. chlorine, sulfur

dioxide, carbon dioxide and ammonia.

Detachable Rotameters

Two sizes of rotameters, 3 and 5, are

available in 15 capacities between 1.2

500 PPD chlorine (comparable capaci-

ties for other gases). These

flowmeters can be integral to

the unit, or mounted remote,fo rinstallation flexi-

bility. Rotameters

can be ganged

together for multiple

points of

application.

Easy to Install, Operate andMaintain

The S10k chlorinator is simple in

design, compact and easy to handle.

Injector installation only requires con-

necting to a water supply and running

plastic tubing to a main or open chan-

nel. A knob adjustment on the rotame-

ter changes gas feed rate, which is indi-

cated on a high resolution 3" or 5" scale.

Accuracy

Gas feed is 4% of the indicated flow.

Operating Range

Manual 20:1 for any flowmeter.

Automatic 10:1.

Control Modes

Manual control, start-stop or program,flow proportional, direct residual, com-

pound-loop, multiple rate control and

multiple point operation.

Distance, Supply to the

Control Unit

For flexibility, it is not necessary to install

the vacuum regulating valve close to the

control unit. It can be up to several

hundred feet from the gas control unit,

depending on maximum feed rate, the

diameter of the connecting pipe or tub-

ing and system performance requirements.

Injector Operating Water

Injector operating water must be reason-

ably clean. Injectors are fixed-throat dif-

ferential type. Maximum inlet pressure

is 300 psi to a maximum of 100 F; 150psi to a maximum of 130 F.

Pressure at Application Point

Maximum pressure with hose or poly-

ethylene tubing is 75 psi. High pressure

hose or rigid pipe will allow application

against back pressure of 75 to 160 psi.

A solution pump after the injector will

allow application against higher pressure.

Swimming Pools

For non-residential swimming pool

applications a unique package is available.

AUTOMATIC CONTROL

The S10k can accommodate automatic

feed rate control from simple to com-

plex schemes. The control system con-

sists of an actuator and either SCU(Signal Conditioning Unit) or PCU

(Process Control Unit).

SCU (see TI 40.100UA)

Operating Modes: Flow proportional,

manual

Inputs: 4-20 mA DC (from flow

transmitter)

Outputs: Control out to actuator; also

4-20 mA output for retransmission of

gas feed rate (actuator position)

Control Capability: Dosage and flow

scaling PCU (see TI 40.200UA)

Operating Modes: Direct residual feed

back, compound loop, feed forward,

flow proportional, manual

Ranges: Setpoints up to 50 mg/l and

center-zero capability for dechlorination

Control Logic: Proportional andintegral with lag

Alarms: 4 user-configurable alarms

for 16 different conditions

OPTIONS

Related options include: cylinder valves

and connections; header valves with

manifolding and connections; vent; injec-

tor water and injector outlet lines and

clamps; main connections; solenoid

valves; water line pressure gauge; high

vacuum pressure switch and alarm; gas

mask; chlorine detectors; on line

analysers; two cylinder scales; residual test

kits; injector vacuum gauges; spare parts.

Chlorine Gas Warning

All unattended chlorine gas containers

and chlorination equipment should bemonitored for leaks. Sensitive chlorine

detectors, which respond quickly to

chlorine in the atmosphere, should be

installed at each site.

See Technical Data Sheet TI 50.130UA

for further details.

Carbon Dioxide Warning

Because of the high pressure in carbon

dioxide containers, the vacuum regulat-

ing valve cannot be mounted directly on

the container. A pressure reducing valve

and pressure relief valve must be

installed between the container and the

vacuum regulating valve.
