Abstract
An ozone sensor includes a hollow housing having an inlet and an outlet. The hollow housing defines an internal cavity that is adapted to receive water from the inlet and discharge water through the outlet. The internal cavity can be defined by a bottom wall, a top wall and sidewall. An electrode includes a working electrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode. The electrode assembly positioned in the cavity such that the reference electrode is below the inlet and outlet when to ozone is incorporated in a water line such that the hollow housing retains water.
Claims26
An ozone sensor comprising:
- a hollow housing having an inlet and an outlet, the hollow housing defining a cavity that is adapted to receive water from the inlet and discharge water through the outlet, the cavity being defined by a bottom wall, a top wall and sidewall;
- and
- an electrode including a working electrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode, the electrode assembly positioned in the cavity such that the reference electrode is below the inlet and outlet when ozone is incorporated in a water line such that the hollow housing retains water.
A system for treating water with ozone:
- an ozone generator disposed in a water supply line;
- and
- an ozone sensor disposed in a water supply line upstream of the ozone sensor, the ozone sensor comprising:
- a hollow housing having an inlet and an outlet, the hollow housing defining a cavity that is adapted to receive water from the inlet and discharge water through the outlet, the cavity being defined by a bottom wall, a top wall and sidewall;
- and
- an electrode including a working electrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode, the electrode assembly positioned in the cavity such that the reference electrode is below the inlet and outlet when ozone is incorporated in a water line such that the hollow housing retains water;
- a controller in electrical communication with the ozone generator and the ozone sensor, the controller adjusting the amount of ozone generated by the ozone generator by feedback from the ozone concentration determined by the ozone sensor.
