1. What is Ozone Generator Run Time?

The ozone generator run time is the duration required for an ozone generator to produce a specific amount of ozone at a given output rate. This calculation is essential for proper ozone treatment planning and equipment operation.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the simple formula:

Where:

• \( Required\ Ozone \) — Total ozone needed (grams)
• \( Output\ Rate \) — Generator's ozone production rate (grams per hour)

Explanation: The equation calculates the time needed by dividing the total required ozone by the generator's hourly output rate.

3. Importance of Run Time Calculation

Details: Accurate run time calculation ensures proper ozone treatment duration, prevents under/over treatment, and helps optimize generator usage and maintenance schedules.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter required ozone in grams and output rate in grams per hour. Both values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What factors affect ozone generator output rate?
A: Output rate can vary with air flow, humidity, temperature, and generator condition/maintenance.

Q2: Should I include a safety margin in my calculations?
A: Yes, consider adding 10-20% to required ozone to account for potential output variations.

Q3: How often should output rate be verified?
A: Output rate should be checked periodically (every 6-12 months) as it can decrease over time.

Q4: Does this calculation work for all ozone generators?
A: This basic calculation works for most generators, but very large industrial systems may have additional factors.

Q5: Can I use this for intermittent operation calculations?
A: For intermittent operation, divide the total time by the duty cycle percentage.
