Abstract

A device and method is provided for converting oxygen within air into ozone. The device has a portable housing with an air inlet and an enhanced ozone air outlet. A lamp housing is positioned within the portable housing and has a plurality of UV lamps for emitting UV radiation, the plurality of UV lamps extending from one end of the lamp housing to the other in a generally parallel configuration. The device also has a blower positioned within the portable housing for moving the air into contact with UV radiation from the plurality of UV lamps. The device further includes a plurality of baffles positioned within the lamp housing for dispersing the air as the air moves through the lamp housing. The device can be used to eliminate odors and contaminants found in the air, as well as to eliminate oils and contaminants found in water and to kill insects.

Claims20

Dependent claims

An ozone generator comprising:

a portable housing including a first air inlet and a first ozone outlet;
a UV lamp section comprising UV lamps that are configured to emit UV radiation for generating ozone by applying UV radiation to air as the air moves through the UV lamp section;
a blower contained within the portable housing to move the air into contact with the radiation of the UV lamps;
a temperature sensor proximate to UV lamps to collect a temperature measurement of the air proximate to the UV lamps;
a first output device configured to adjust an intensity of the UV lamps;
and
a controller including a control application for execution within the controller, the controller and the application are configured to receive the temperature measurement from the temperature sensor and utilize a predetermined algorithm to control the first output device for adjusting the intensity of the UV lamps based on the temperature measurement.
