1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a household EMERALD PRO 20 Device for the production
of electrochemically activated anolyte and catholyte. You have invested wisely in the welfare of your
family, and also made a very important step towards improving your health!
EMERALD PRO 20 Device is a universal household device for producing electrochemically
activated anolyte and catholyte of various concentrations from fresh or slightly salted water (aqueous
solutions of electrolytes). The equipment can work both on ordinary fresh tap water, and on slightly
salted water (on an aqueous salt solution of sodium chloride, cooking salt) to obtain more concentrated
solutions of anolyte and catholyte. Below in the text, the following generalized designations of the
initial aqueous electrolyte solution can be found: “water”, “electrolyte solution”, “aqueous electrolyte
solution”, “starting saline solution”.
EMERALD PRO 20 Device was developed jointly with the Vitold Bakhir Institute, which is the
main scientific center in the field of electrochemical activation of water. This model represents a new
generation of STEL-type household appliances that have successfully established themselves both in
Russia and abroad. Many years of experience and modern discoveries of experts from the Vitold
Bakhir Institute, as well as the direct participation of V.M. Bahir, Doctor of Technical Sciences,
professor, have allowed to combine in the EMERALD PRO 20 Device the most advanced
technologies for electric water treatment to produce anolyte and catholyte of the highest quality.
All processes of electric water treatment in the Device are as close as possible to what happens
to water in living nature. It has become possible to reproduce the most complex natural processes of
water treatment due to the creation of highly reliable electrochemical modules (MB 11-T type), which
are the main elements of the device. Electrochemical modules consist of two flow chambers: anode
and cathode. It is in these chambers that under the influence of positive and negative current on the
anode and cathode, unique and nature-prompted processes of water electric treatment are reproduced.

2. PRINCIPLES OF WATER PURIFICATION AND ELECTRIC PROCESSING
EMERALD PRO 20 Device is a high-performance device, working on cold tap or slightly salted
water, able to produce no less than 20 liters per hour of anolyte or catholyte of various concentrations.
The main element of the EMERALD Device is a special electrochemical module
(Bahir diaphragm flow-through electrochemical module MB 11-T type , hereinafter referred
to as the “electrochemical module”, “module”), in which oxidative reactions take place at
the anode and reduction reactions at the cathode. Auxiliary elements in the EMERALD
Device are two electrokinetic filters located after the anode and cathode chambers of the
electrochemical module.
A distinctive feature of the EMERALD Device is the absence of replaceable and
wearing parts! The electrochemical module, as well as auxiliary electrokinetic filters do not
require periodic replacement.
Anolyte and catholyte are water or an aqueous electrolyte solution after
electrochemical treatment at the anode or at the cathode, respectively, of the
electrochemical module with separated electrode spaces.
Oxidation reactions procede in the anode chamber of the module, producing oxidants
(antimicrobial substances) in the starting electrolyte solution, with the solution itself
acquiring electron-accepting properties. The aqueous electrolyte solution
treated at the surface of the anode is called anolyte. In nature, similar
processes occur in all living organisms during phagocytosis (the universal
process of antimicrobial protection).
In the cathode chamber of the module, reduction reactions take place, producing antioxidants in
the starting electrolyte solution, and the solution itself acquires electron-donor properties. The aqueous
electrolyte solution treated at the surface of the cathode is called catholyte. In nature, similar processes
occur during contact of water with rocks, as well as during phase transitions in the glaciers melting
process.
Auxiliary electrokinetic filters consisting of the purest natural mountain quartz serve for the final
purification of water from mechanical impurities, heavy metals, iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide.
Helpful information!
Water purification and electric treatment in the anode and cathode chambers is highly
efficient and safe. Water treatment processes are identical to natural ones, but at the same time
they are accelerated by tens of thousands of times due to the use of the latest technologies and
electrochemical modules.
The effectiveness of anolyte and catholyte from EMERALD devices is due to the unique
electrochemical activation technologies and the design of the main electrochemical module. As
a result:
u Each microvolume of water is in contact with a double electric layer (DEL) on the
surface of the electrodes of the electrochemical module;
u Electrochemical modules exchange only electrons with water taking them from the
water in the anode chamber and introducing into it in the cathode one.

3. INFORMATION ON ANTI-MICROBIAL WATER – ANOLYTE
Theoretical provisions.
Electrochemically activated anolyte (antimicrobial water) is predominantly fresh or slightly
mineralized water in which metastable products, the so-called oxidants, are formed and stored as a
result of the electrochemical unipolar effect of anodic electrochemical reactions (at the anode of the
electrochemical module); the oxidants are represented mainly by hydroperoxide compounds and
oxygen compounds of chlorine.
The electrochemically activated anolyte exhibits electron-accepting ability, i.e., it is a strong
oxidizing agent and/or oxidation catalyst in various physicochemical, including biochemical,
reactions.
Practical applications of anolyte.
EMERALD PRO 20 Device is able to produce from fresh tap or slightly salted water up to 20
liters per hour of anolyte of various concentrations.
Anolyte is an environmentally friendly and completely harmless to humans and animals universal
disinfectant with a wide spectrum of action (against bacteria, mycobacteria, viruses, fungi and spores
of all kinds of species and forms), to which the microflora is unable to develop resistance (unable to
adapt). Long-term (more than 25 years) use of anolyte in medical institutions without replacement
with other agents has demonstrated the complete lack of addiction of microorganisms to this agent,
due to its metastability.
Anolyte is universal and safe for all forms of application (irrigation, immersion, rubbing, soaking,
aerosol, foam, ice). Anolyte is a colorless transparent liquid with a slight smell of chlorine and is, in
fact, antimicrobial water.
The universal properties of such antimicrobial water have been confirmed by research institutions
in more than 50 countries. It is proved that anolyte destroys any harmful microorganisms in seconds,
and then turns into ordinary water and evaporates without a trace.
For example, antimicrobial water with a concentration of AA of 350 mg/l kills anthrax spores
within 1 second. This has been tested in practice and reflected in the scientific report of the Battle
Military Institute (USA).
Such a high efficiency of the anolyte was made possible by observing the principles of
NATURE-LIKENESS: a universal mixture of active substances in the anolyte is identical to that
formed in living organisms in the fight against harmful microorganisms. Active agents (AA) in anolyte
are a mixture of oxidants, equivalent in composition to that which is formed in living organisms during
phagocytosis (destruction of foreign substances by phagocytes). AA of anolyte are represented by
chlorine-oxygen and hydroperoxide oxidants: hypochlorous acid, hydrogen peroxide, ozone, singlet
oxygen.
When dried, the anolyte does not leave a deposit on smooth surfaces and does not initiate metal
corrosion. After use, Anolyte turns into ordinary fresh water, which eliminates the need for washing
off, neutralizing or disposing of it.
Anolyte is the only disinfectant solution in the world that is officially approved in countries such
as Japan and Switzerland, not only for disinfection of any level, but also for oral administration as a
therapeutic drug. This fact confirms the complete safety of the use of anolyte as a disinfectant for
humans, animals and plants.
There are also appropriate permits for the use of various types of anolyte in medicine, food
industry, veterinary medicine, agriculture and other areas in Russia and several other countries (USA,
Germany, Italy, Bulgaria, UAE, Vietnam).
Anolyte manufactured in EMERALD devices meets the requirements of hygiene standards (see
Appendix 1 “Certificates”).

HOUSEHOLD ANOLYTE APPLICATION WAYS.
Spray humidification of air - Anolyte is excellent for disinfecting indoor air by spraying the
anolyte through a spray or atomizer. When sprayed, the smell of chlorine is completely absent,
extraneous odors disappear almost instantly, the air feels fresh like after rain.
Soaking fruits and vegetables - anolyte removes paraffin, herbicide and pesticide films,
increases the shelf life of products;
Flushing meat and fish - anolyte increases the shelf life of products due to the absence of
bacterial growth on their surface;
Washing floors, walls, hard furniture – the anolyte has excellent washing and disinfecting
properties and leave no traces or разводов on surfaces;
Hand wash – Anolyte is great for disinfecting and washing your hands by spraying the anolyte
onto your hands through a spray or atomizer. Anolyte dries quickly, leaves no residue and does not
cause skin irritation or dryness.
Wound and cut treatment - anolyte provides complete disinfection and rapid healing of
wounds;
Processing toothbrushes and other hygiene items – Anolyte can destroy any kind of microbes
and viruses that may form on the surfaces of personal hygiene items and that cannot be washed off
with ordinary tap water.
Anolyte is also suitable for disinfection, cleaning and washing the following items:
u Children toys;
u Tableware and dishwashing means;
u Equipment in contact with raw foods and water;
u For spring-cleaning;
u Underwear and bedding;
u Rubber and plastic footwear;
u Rubber and polypropylene mats;
u Surfaces of air conditioners and fans;
u Trays and places for keeping pets;
u Garbage cans and containers for garbage collection
Important! The EMERALD PRO 20 device is not a medical device. Consult a specialist before
using anolyte. In the case of ingestion of anolyte inside (for drinking or cooking), make sure that the
parameters of the obtained anolyte comply with SANPIN 2.1.4.1074-01.

4. INFORMATION ON ANTIOXIDANT WATER – CATHOLYTE
Theoretical provisions.
Electrochemically activated catholyte (antioxidant water) is predominantly fresh or slightly
mineralized water in which metastable products of cathodic electrochemical reactions, in particular
molecular ions НО2¯, О2¯, ОН¯, are formed and stored as a result of electrochemical unipolar
treatment (at the cathode of the electrochemical module).
The electrochemically activated catholyte exhibits electron donor ability, i.e., it is a strong
reducing agent and reduction catalyst in various physicochemical, including biochemical, reactions.
Practical application of catholyte.
EMERALD PRO 20 Device allows producing from fresh tap or slightly salted water up to 20
liters per hour of catholyte of various concentrations.
It is scientifically proven that electrochemically activated catholyte is the best antioxidant in the
world! Antioxidants found in foods, vitamins or dietary supplements do not ensure proper protection
to human body. Due to their large size, their molecules are not able to penetrate into the cells and
neutralize toxic oxidants (including free radicals). Only molecules of antioxidant water - catholyte -
are capable of this.
Antioxidant water from the EMERALD device has a beneficial effect on the whole body,
normalizes metabolism and the functioning of internal organs, cleanses them of toxins and wastes,
and also strengthens the immune system, improves memory and increases the physical vigor.
Antioxidant water from EMERALD devices has a positive effect on the body when used as part
of a normal diet. EMERALD antioxidant water protects the body from the effects of strong toxic
oxidizing agents. The mechanism of action of antioxidant water is based on the transfer of protective
antioxidant properties to the internal environment of the body, which helps to protect against toxic
oxidizing agents present not only in water but also in air and in food. Tissue respiration is stimulated,
which enhances the action of vitamins and chemical antioxidants in the body. Antioxidant water also
weakens the effect of ionizing radiation, i.e. exhibits radioprotective properties characteristic of
antioxidants. Antioxidant water improves indicators of passive immunity and the general condition of
the body, improves the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and urinary tract, normalizes blood
counts.
Water treated in EMERALD devices retains its antioxidant properties for no more than a day
from the date of receipt. After this period, the redox potential (ORP) of the treated water returns to the
initial ORP value of the water +150 ÷ + 500mV. When boiling, the ORP value of antioxidant water
decreases in absolute value, but water continues to exhibit the properties of a reducing agent. The
antioxidant water obtained in the EMERALD device should be stored for no more than a day in glass
containers with a closed lid, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
The catholyte produced in EMERALD devices complies with hygiene standards (see Appendix
1 “Certificates”).
HOUSEHOLD APPLICATIONS OF CATHOLYTE.
Consumption as part of a regular diet - human body is more than 70% water. Water plays the most
important part in the life of the human body. An adult needs to drink about 2-3 liters of water per day
to maintain normal body activity.

8
Cooking - food on antioxidant water is cooked faster and retains more beneficial properties.
Antioxidant water is great for soaking fruits, vegetables, fish and meat - due to its properties, such
water is more efficient for removing from products harmful chemicals, such as growth hormones and
antibiotics.
Making drinks - in addition to drinking antioxidant water from the EMERALD device, you can
enhance the antioxidant effect due to synergies and make antioxidant drinks using natural antioxidants
- freshly squeezed juice of carrots, apples, various berries, by adding antioxidant water from the
EMERALD device. Herbal teas made with this water have a special taste and aroma. Ice cubes of
frozen antioxidant water will make the drink even more healthy.
Humidification - antioxidant water is useful as a mist when used in humidifiers. Humidified air with
microdrops of antioxidant water, which has the properties of a reducing agent, has a beneficial effect
on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, prevents asthma attacks and allergic diseases.
Cosmetic applications - for cosmetic purposes, antioxidant water is useful for washing, in the form
of ice cubes for rubbing the face or spraying water in the form of an aerosol to moisturize the skin.
Moisturizing masks on antioxidant water will have a special effect.
Pets and plants - pets will prefer antioxidant water to plain tap or bottled water. Watering indoor
plants with EMERALD water will contribute to their rapid growth and development.
Important! The latest technology in the EMERALD device allows producing clean and healthy
antioxidant water, while maintaining a neutral level of acid-base balance (pH level). PH neutral
antioxidant water is suitable for everyday use in regular diets. Due to the similarity with the internal
environment of human body, such water is instantly absorbed by the body and holistically restores it.
The parameters of the purified antioxidant water are monitored by the instrumental method, by
measuring the pH and the redox potential (ORP) of the treated water using appropriate instruments.
These gages are purchased separately and are not in the delivery package.
Important! The EMERALD PRO 20 device is not a medical device. Consult a specialist before
using catholyte. In the case of ingestion of catholyte inside (for drinking or cooking), make sure that
the parameters of the obtained catholyte comply with SANPIN 2.1.4.1074-01.

u Avoid getting of any liquids (including water) on the electrical components of the system.
Be careful when connecting/disconnecting the water supply pipes and the
anolyte/catholyte outlet so that the liquid does not get into the power socket and the plug
of the network cable; If liquids (including water) get on the electrical components of the
system, thoroughly wipe them with a dry absorbent cloth until no trace of liquid is left.
u Make sure that the Device is connected to the mains with suitable characteristics (see the
DEVICE CHARACTERISTICS section, Table 1);
u For the EMERALD Device to function properly, your power outlet must be uninterrupted
and must be EARTHED!
u It is forbidden to disconnect the working Device from the network by pulling the plug of
the power supply out of the Device! This may cause malfunctions.

ANOLYTE Mode.
To prepare ANOLYTE, you need to connect the EMERALD device in accordance with the
diagram in Fig. 9. The peculiarity of this mode is that Anolyte returns to the circulation tank in full
flow, and the Catholyte merges into the drainage in the drip mode.

WORK DESCRIPTION.
To turn on the Device in the ANOLYTE mode:
1. Prepare the starting saline solution (fresh or salted water) in a circulation tank (4); do not fill the
entire volume of the circulation tank in order to avoid splashing during circulation!
2. Connect the Device in accordance with the diagram in Fig. 9;
3. Turn the Anolyte control (9) to the OPEN position (vertically);
4. Turn the Catholyte control (8) to the DRIP MODE position (by the silver strip level);
5. Turn on the pump (button 10). When the pump is turned on, the corresponding LED lights up;
6. Wait for the Device to completely fill with water and stabilize the water flow through the outlet
pipes of Anolyte (7) and Catholyte (6). Anolyte should come out in full flow, without restrictions.
Catholyte should come out in drip mode; If necessary, additionally adjust the drip mode by means
of the Catholyte flow regulator (8).
7. Turn on the electrochemical module (11). When the module is turned on, the corresponding LED
lights up.
8. Make sure that the ammeter readings are in the required range and do not exceed the maximum
permissible level for the operating current (no more than 10 amperes)! Reference readings of the
ammeter are given in Table 5.
To switch off the Unit: 1. Switch off the electrochemical module (11); 2. Switch off the pump (10);
3. Flush the unit with ordinary tap water for 2 minutes (for more details, see the Unit Maintenance
Section).
Important! The exit of the Catholyte into the drainage in the drip mode must be maintained through-
out the entire preparation time of the Anolyte.
