Certikin Co2 Injection Valve – Stainless Steel Quill (CDECO2LIN)

Introducing the Certikin CO2 Injection Valve – Stainless Steel Quill, a cutting-edge solution revolutionizing pH control within the swimming pool industry. As the demand for efficient water treatment systems grows, the utilization of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) for pH regulation has emerged as a game-changer. By infusing CO2 into the pool water, a gentle carbonic acid is formed, aiding in pH stabilization and promoting the natural production of bicarbonate.

The unparalleled benefits of CO2 set it apart from traditional mineral acids like sodium bisulphate and hydrochloric acid. CO2, being colorless, odorless, and non-flammable, offers unmatched safety and ease of handling. Unlike its counterparts, CO2 poses minimal risk when properly managed and does not necessitate specialized protective gear. Compliance with COSHH regulations is simplified, as the inherent properties of CO2 mitigate potential hazards associated with chemical handling.

A key advantage of CO2 lies in its controlled delivery process, minimizing the likelihood of emergencies due to spillages. Furthermore, CO2’s compatibility restrictions eliminate the risk of inadvertent chemical reactions, safeguarding against the formation of hazardous substances like chlorine gas. The inherent buffering capability of CO2 ensures precise pH adjustments, enabling enhanced process control with gradual and consistent pH reduction.

The CO2 Injector, a pivotal component of the system, facilitates seamless integration and maintenance. Designed for ease of use, the injector allows for effortless removal of the injection quill/defuser without interrupting the circulation line. Additionally, the CO2 Flow Controller, housed in an IP-rated enclosure, enables precise adjustment of CO2 flow to the injection point. Integration with CertiChem controllers enhances automation capabilities, enabling real-time pH control based on water parameters.

Experience the power of the Certikin CO2 Injection Valve – Stainless Steel Quill, offering a safe, efficient, and reliable solution for pH management in swimming pools. Elevate your water treatment system with advanced technology that prioritizes safety, precision, and performance. Trust Certikin for industry-leading solutions that redefine excellence in pool maintenance and water treatment.

Certikin Co2 Injection Valve – Stainless Steel Quill

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is increasingly being used for pH control within the swimming pool industry. When injected or diffused into the pool water, the CO2 forms a mild carbonic acid for pH control as well as forming natural bicarbonate which assists in the stabilisation of the pH level.Why CO2-CO2 offers a number of advantages over the mineral acids such as sodium bisulphate andhydrochloric acid:- CO2 is colourless, odourless and a non-flammable gas. It is easy to handle and dose and is dangerous only if released into a confined area. It requires no special protective equipment- Under COSHH regulations a pool operator must carry out a risk assessment in selecting the chemicals to use in a pool. The first step is to ascertain whether using an alternativeprocess or chemical can eliminate the risk – CO2 scores on this count- Deliveries are unlikely to result in emergencies because of spillages and, where ventilation is good, CO2 does not demand any special safety monitoring for leakage- Unlike mineral acids, itis not possible to mix CO2 with sodium or calcium hypochlorite(in liquid form) through spillage in bunds or operator error. This means there is no possibility of accidental production of chlorine gas – a significant hazard in swimming pool installations- Due to its natural buffering action, CO2 provides improved process control. pH reduction is more gradual than with mineral acids making accurate control inherently easier but sometimes slower.CO2 InjectorAn essential part of any CO2 system – the injector. The injector has been specifically designed so that the injection quill / defuser can easily be removed for cleaning without the need to isolate the circulation line.CO2 Flow ControllerAn IP rated enclosure which allows adjustment of CO2 flow to the injection point. Supply can be connected to CertiChem controllers for automatic control based on pH water parameters.
