New Type Chlorinator for Small Water Supplies
A small capacity simplified chlorinator designed for the use of small water works and sewage plants and for swimming pools has been developed by the Paradon Engineering Company. Long Island City, N. Y.
This chlorinator, illustrated herewith, consists of a white vitrified enamelled pedestal having a compartment which holds a small cylinder of chlorine generally of about 12 pounds capacity. A silver control valve is provided for regulating the flow of chlorine from this cylinder. A volumetric type measuring meter indicates the amount of chlorine flowing, which meter is enclosed in a glass cylinder. An injector operator by an auxiliary water supply draws the chlorine from the glass cylinder and carries it to the point of application which may be either in a pipe line or an open body of water. Part of the water flowing through the injector is bypassed and forms a water jacket around the outside of the chlorine cylinder. This water jacket keeps the chlorine cylinder at a constant temperature. Causing the flow of chlorine remains constant for any one setting of the silver control valve. A gauge is provided to show the chlorine pressure and another to show the water pressure. The injector is provided with a strainer. The suction created by the injector is utilized to raise the height of water inside the glass cylinder to facilitate measuring the discharges of the volumetric measuring meter.
