The OxiMax MA Series
The OxiMax MA Series is an off-line system designed to produce Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl) from common salt & water.
Description
The OxiMax MA Series Electrochlorination System produces high-quality sodium hypochlorite on-site using only salt, water and electricity—reducing chemical handling, improving safety and lowering operating costs for water treatment facilities.
Typical applications are potable and wastewater treatment plants, industrial plants, water parks and large swimming pools.
These heavy duty, high performance cells use Thermomoulded PVC casings and bipolar electrode arrangements for optimum energy efficiency, safety and NaOCl production.

OxiMax MA Series Electrochlorination System Sizing
We use the MAA, MAB and MAC electrolyser cells as the building blocks to configure every OxiMax MA Series electrochlorination system, allowing each system to be sized precisely to the required chlorine output.

The Process
Water Engineers are specialists in Electrochlorination (salt chlorination) processes where common salt (Sodium Chloride) is converted to low strength (up to 1%) hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite by electrolysis.
The actual reactions are complex, but the key Electrochlorination reaction can be represented by the following equation:
NaCl + H2O + energy > HOCl + NaOCl + H2
Salt , power and water are the raw materials for this process and the availability and source of the salt often determines the most appropriate Electrochlorinator design for a particular application.
