2. Basics about ozone
Oxygen consists of two oxygen atoms that form an oxygen molecule. The unstable
ozone molecule, on the other hand, consists of a compound of three oxygen atoms
and is gaseous at room temperature and normal pressure. Ozone is the strongest
technically available oxidizing agent and thus one of the most effective disinfectants
ever. At the same time, it is the most environmentally friendly disinfectant as it
decomposes back into oxygen with a half-life of about 30 minutes due to the
chemical instability of ozone. No other chemical is introduced into the process. Due
to its oxidizing effect, it is toxic to humans.
2.1 Ozone production
Our device uses high-voltage electricity to split the oxygen molecule into its
components, i.e. two oxygen atoms. These are highly reactive and are looking for
new connecting partners. This method of generating ozone is called Cororna
discharge. The highly reactive, split oxygen atoms react with oxygen molecules that
have not been split to form ozone. After some time the ozone then decomposes to
harmless oxygen again.
2.2 Application of ozone
The use of ozone is very diverse. As an environmentally friendly and at the same
time strong oxidizing agent, it can be used practically everywhere where pollutants or
interfering substances can be removed efficiently by oxidation process without the
formation of harmful by-products - in contrast to chlorination. Cleaning with ozone
has the advantage that no harmful by-products, such as certain salts and chlorine
compounds, are formed. (An-)organic substances which are not oxidized by ozone
are e.g. glass, stainless steel, Teflon, PVC, ceramic materials and concrete.

Ozone can be used in many ways, for example for the following applications:
Kitchen odour
Cigarette smoke
Cadaveric odours
Urine odors
Musty and mouldy odour
Smell of burning
Animal odors
Against mould
Against mites
Air purification
..... and a multitude of other applications

3. Safety information - Working with ozone
First read all instructions carefully and use the
corresponding pictures. If any ambiguities arise, please
contact the manufacturer before putting the device into
operation.
READ THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OF THE OZONE GENERATOR
CAREFULLY BEFORE PUTTING INTO OPERATION. MAKE SURE THAT YOU
HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND
WARNINGS. ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGE OR INJURY RESULTING
FROM FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS, OR FROM FAILURE TO
OBSERVE NORMAL CARE AND ATTENTION IN HANDLING, OPERATING,
MAINTAINING OR MANUFACTURING, EVEN IF NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN
THESE INSTRUCTIONS, WILL BE REJECTED BY US.
Ozone is a gas which, due to its properties, can cause serious damage to health
when inhaled. Ozone is toxic / poisonous for animals, plants and humans. All safety
instructions must therefore be observed.
When operating the ozone generator within the Federal Republic of Germany, the
guidelines of the German employers' liability insurance association (ZH 1/474) must
be observed. In other countries, the applicable national regulations and rules must be
observed.
Ozone irritates the respiratory tract due to its oxidizing effect. When using the device,
uncontrolled escape or release of the gas must be avoided. The odor of the gas is
pungent - sharp to chlorine-like and must not be inhaled. After treatment with ozone,
the treated rooms must be properly ventilated. For this reason, it must be possible to
ventilate the rooms with sufficient fresh air supply and an air exhaust at every use.
This should be done from the outside.

Ozone must not be inhaled and will cause a
Lung function reduction that often lasts several days!
If ozone is inhaled, seek medical attention immediately. Also seek medical attention
immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms:
Eye irritation, cough irritation, temple headache, dizziness, shortness of breath and
pain when inhaling.
In Germany, the meteorological limit value for ozone was 0.12g/m3. The valid MAK
value is 0.1ppm or 0.2mg/m3. For operation outside Germany, other limit values may
apply.
First aid
Leave the danger area and take yourself and other affected persons directly to
fresh air.
Check your pulse rate and breathing.
Call the emergency call immediately and mention that it is an accident with
ozone.

and professionally.
The device may only be used by persons who have been instructed in its
handling and the resulting dangers. It must be ensured that no ozone can
escape from the operating room - close windows, doors and other openings
airtight.
Do not allow any plants, animals or people to be in the treated room while the device
is in use! The premises must not be entered again until after 10 hours (or if the ozone
value has fallen below 0.1 mg/m3). This ozone limit value must be determined using
a measuring instrument. A gas mask with an ozone filter should always be used to
protect the respiratory tract. The treated rooms should always be locked. Make sure
that no strangers have access. The area must be marked with warning signs. After
use, the rooms must be ventilated with fresh air for at least 2 hours.
Do not allow the product to come into contact with rain or wetness. If it does come
into contact, disconnect the power plug and have the device checked by the
manufacturer before using it again. This also applies to contact with other liquids and
aggressive gases.
Disconnect the device from the power supply after use. Never disconnect the mains
plug from the socket by pulling the cable.

There is an acute danger of poisoning during operation of the unit, so never enter the
treated area!Danger to life!
The front and rear sides of the ozone generator must be free at all times and must
not be blocked. Do not place any objects near the ozone generator and at least 15
cm away from walls or objects.
Due to legal requirements, the device is supplied with an earthing cable. It is strictly
forbidden to bypass it or to connect it to an unearthed power supply.
Under no circumstances may the device be opened, furthermore it is forbidden to
bypass the safety devices or make any changes.
Under no circumstances may the ozone generator be put into operation if the
housing is damaged. Re-positioning is only permitted when the ozone generator is
switched off.
Long ozone treatments can result in cracking or embrittlement of materials containing
natural rubber.

4.3. Commissioning
The ozone generator needs a 220-240V AC, 50-60Hz supply and should be supplied
with power immediately before use. If a gas supply is carried out in an unheated
room which is later used at a higher temperature level, the risk of subsequent
evaporation is very high. Therefore, the room temperature during treatment should
always be approx. 5°C above the later usage temperature.
Figure 1 Overview of the controls (Figure TEN O3)
Before commissioning:
Please hermetically close all air inlets and outlets (doors & windows) of the treated
area to prevent uncontrolled distribution of ozone. The room to be treated must be
provided with warning signs to prevent unintentional entry into the rooms. The device
must be placed in a firm and stable place.

5. Please affix signs or warning signs indicating that the room may not be
entered during ozone treatment and may only be entered again after it has
been cleared by authorised persons.
6. After the time has elapsed, the unit switches itself off automatically.
After commissioning:
Immediately after operation of the ozone generator, a high concentration of ozone is
present in the treated room. In this case it is only possible to enter again as soon as
the MAK value has dropped below 0.1ppm or 0.2mg/m3. Outside the Federal
Republic of Germany, these values may differ. The MAK value can be determined
exactly by means of an ozone measuring instrument. Ozone has a half-life of approx.
30 minutes. Thus, the regeneration time per device and per hour is 30 minutes. This
means for example a 12 hour operation needs 6 hours regeneration time.
The time required to decompose the ozone depends on the following factors:
air humidity
application duration
room size
temperature
There must be sufficient ventilation!

* for the device "TWENTY O3 (Plus)" the treatment time is halved and for the device "THIRTY
O3 (Plus) the treatment time is divided by three.
If the odour problem is still present after the proposed treatment period, it can be
assumed that the treatment period was too short, the room temperature too low or
the humidity too high. The ideal temperature during operation is between 5°C and
35°C. After the treatment and sufficient ventilation, the ozone smell can still be
perceived for up to three more days in the treated room. However, this odour
disappears completely and is harmless.

6. Maintenance
Die Ozongeräte sind wartungsarm, trotzdem bedarf es immer wieder einer visuellen.
The unit must be cleaned regularly from the outside, especially at the air inlets and
outlets, as dust and dirt may accumulate there over time. In addition, the air filter
must be cleaned at regular intervals to remove any sucked-in dirt by knocking it off,
otherwise the performance of the unit will be reduced. The air filter is removed by
dismantling the air filter cover, which is attached with clips.
After some time the performance of the ozone device decreases. The ozone plate is
a wearing part, this is indicated by a reduced ozone generation.
In this case, the device must be sent to the manufacturer for replacement so that the
ozone plate(s) can be replaced for a fee.
