Apparatus for electrocoagulation treatment of a liquid

A flow-through assembly for electrocoagulation treatment of a liquid, the assembly comprising:

• a) a cartridge comprising sacrificial electrodes,
• b) a chamber comprising:
• an enclosure arranged for removable retention of the cartridge comprising sacrificial electrodes,
• an opening through which the cartridge is removable from the enclosure,
• an inlet port and an outlet port in the chamber arranged for flow of said liquid, into the inlet port, over the sacrificial electrodes in the enclosure, and out of the outlet port,
• c) a chamber door pivotably movable relative to the chamber through a hinge arrangement about which the door is pivotable between an open configuration and a closed configuration of the chamber door, wherein
• in the closed configuration, an inner face of the chamber door is adapted to form a liquid tight seal at the opening, and
• in the open configuration, the cartridge is removable from the enclosure through the opening,
• wherein the chamber door comprises a first electrode on its inner face and the chamber comprises a second electrode positioned relative to the first electrode such that the sacrificial electrodes of the cartridge are located between the first and second electrodes with the chamber door in the closed configuration;
• wherein the assembly further comprises a casing body and a casing door, the casing body and the casing door configured to retain and surround the chamber and the chamber door therein;
• wherein the casing door is hinged to the casing body to be pivotable between an open position and a closed position of the casing door, and wherein in the closed position, the casing door is arranged to hold the chamber door in the closed configuration of the chamber door;
• and
• wherein the casing body comprises a mechanical fastener arrangeable to releasably hold the casing door in the closed position.
