Prozone’s V3 Patented Dynamic Injector™ technology is a state-of-the-art water/ozone mixer which provides maximum mass transfer of gaseous ozone or liquid chemicals into water with minimum back pressure. A patented dynamic adjustable orifice can be optimized for extended performance and optimization of gas/liquid mixing. Constructed of an ozone/chemical resistant polymer, it has two ports with an internal 360º orifice mixing chamber which provides complete dynamic mixing. Each 1/4″ port has a built in ozone resistant check valve built into it.
The V3 Injector is offered with the following water interface options:
Pressure across injector (PSI) vs air suction (CFH)
1 PSI | 2 PSI | 3 PSI | 8 PSI | |
---|---|---|---|---|
PZ 684 | 1 CFH | 2 CFH | 3 CFH | 5 CFH |
PZ 784 | 2 CFH | 4 CFH | 6 CFH | 14 CFH |
PZ 884 | 3 CFH | 6 CFH | 9 CFH | 20 CFH |
Injectors appear to be simple devices, but in fact must be carefully constructed to maximize the ozone mass transfer into the water. The fundamental requirements for efficient mass transfer are:
The inlet water to the injector is reduced at a specific rate until a specified minimum diameter (throat) is reached. The water is mixed with the ozone/air mix at the throat through a narrow annular gap orifice, creating very small bubbles with eddy currents. A vacuum is created by immediately expanding the water and air/ozone mix after the throat with a specific expansion rate in the outlet portion of the injector. This decompresses the water and air/ozone mix causing rapid ozone mass transfer into the water. The expansion also smooths the water flow — allowing the bubbles to be sustained in the water by maintaining the proper ratio of water to air/ozone ratio thus maximizing the efficiency of ozone mass transfer.
