Ruthenium coated titanium electrodes plate for salt chlorinator for swimming pool

The chlorinator electrolysis cell is the one part of the whole system that actually creates chlorine in the pool. Sodium chloride or common salt dissolved into the water passes through the cell. A small amount of electric current is made to flow into a parallel set of titanium plates inside the cell. These plates, covered with a metal called iridium, separate the sodium chloride molecules through electrolysis and produce hypochlorous acid, which is the same thing produced in a non-saltwater pool when chlorine (in the form of tablets, granular, or liquid) is added to water, keeping the pool sanitized. Eventually two things will happen to the plates in the cell. The first is that the iridium coating will wear away over time and cause the cell to fail. The second issue is that these plates will accumulate scale deposits which lessen potential chlorine production.

If maintained and kept free of excess scale, you can expect 5-8 years on average before needing to replace the cell. Here are some tips that will minimize the wear and tear on the cell, and help prolong its life:

§ Keep calcium hardness levels within range (100-200 ppm for vinyl pools and 200-400 ppm for gunite).

         High calcium hardness levels will accumulate as scale deposits on the plates of the cell, limiting                            performance.

§ Keep salt levels consistently in the 2600-3400 ppm range – 3200 ppm is ideal. Low salt levels force the cell to work harder. High levels will shut down chlorine production completely.

§ Clean the cell regularly only as needed. Once a season is recommended.

§ Power down all pool equipment during lightning storms. This will prevent damage to these components from surges in power.

§ Avoid running high chlorine levels. Continuously running higher levels of chlorine than needed taxes the cell and will shorten the overall lifespan of the cell.

§ Shock your pool manually with liquid or granular chlorine rather than using the “super-chlorinate” function of the generator. This function, although effective and easy to use, does increase the current flowing through the cell for sustained periods of time, and stresses the cell slowly shortening its life.

Quality Advantages:

1. Main quality indicators:titanium substrate, precious metal ratio, accelerated life, coating binding force to the titanium substrate(coating adhesion)

2. Advanced technology & equipment, abundant experiences and skilled workers, during the production of Titanium Anode, each process must be strictly supervised and tested.

3. Own R&D, Production and Sales department, Elade always struggling to supply the product with the most excellent quality and the most favorable price and supply the most efficient service.

1. Can you give a quotation as per the product picture on your website? 

Answer: Our anodes are non-standard products, most of them are in accordance with the requirements of the customer's specific requires. The application industries and countries are different, so please let your engineers or your customer's engineers to provide a specific size, anode working environment, usage, current density and life expectancy, so we can offer you specific price.

2. What is your internal inspection procedure, how do you inspect your products?

Answer: Re the internal inspection procedures, There are 6 steps: Material, mechanical processing, surface treatment, coating, cable connection and packing.

Every step has responsible leader, the inspector checks carefully every step with professional records, operation files, check subjects and performing programs. Once problems are checked out, steps will be taken to make up.

3. Do you have any certificate for your testes from any third party (like SGS, etc)? Or has any third party inspection company has ever tested your anodes and reported? 

Answer: yes, we do have some test certificates from famous third party, like St Louis testing laboratory and china classification society etc.

4. The wooden case is too heavy; can I have other packing method such as carton box to save the freight cost?

Answer: Wooden cases are do heavy, but as per our years of export experience, carton box can make damage for the anode. Though wooden cases are heavy, but it will not damage the anode.
