The Keg O'zone

Here is where the corona discharge tube is put to use in a pumped reflow system.

Aqueous Ozone

A completed modular corona discharge tube ozonator with power supply

Purple Corona Creates Ozone

Corona Discharge Module


Module Assembly Instructions:

Wrap alumina ceramic tube with tight coils of 30 AWG copper wire. Place a second wire inside the bore of the alumina ceramic tube with a short length sticking out of the end. Place short lengths of silicone tubing on the outside of the borosilicate glass tube. insert the alumina tube and copper wire assembly into the borosilicate glass tube and draw the copper wires through the silicone tubing. Solder silicone sleeved 28 AWG wire leads onto the two copper wires. Combine corona discharge modules in parallel with 1/4" drip irrigation tees and elbows. Connect to high voltage power supply like a neon lamp driver for multiple modules or a germicidal lamp inverter for single modules.

Early prototype attached to power supply and black venturi mixer. Follow link for a 'how to'.
