1.0 Installation and Operation
Your ozone generator requires special operating conditions in order to maintain performance
and reliability. Your ozone generator is designed to be operated under a negative or positive
pressure situation. Your ozone generator has been factory tested to operate at a maximum
positive pressure of 5 psi.
The use of an air preparation device is essential to increase your ozone generator performance
and service life. Ozotech Inc. provides several air preparation options, based on application.
Contact your distributor, an Ozotech, Inc. sales representative, or visit www.ozotech.com for more
information
Warranty coverage of your equipment is contingent upon strict compliance with the operating
conditions specied in this manual.
1.1 Operating Environment
External
It is most important to choose a cool, clean external operating environment. Consideration of
these factors should be a priority. Mount your ozone generator in the best possible operating
environment that is available at the chosen site. If possible, mount in an area that is free of
airborne moisture particles.
Internal
Keep the inside of the generator chassis clean and dry. Dust particles and condensation pose a
challenge to the consistent operation of all ozone generators. Make a note to inspect the internal
cleanliness of the equipment when you perform scheduled maintenance. For further information
refer to section 2.0.
1.2 Installation
The AIM PCS 200 is designed to be mounted vertically or horizontally on a wall, panel, or
framework. There are three (3) keyhole mounting features within the chassis, sized for #8 screws.
The use of wall anchors is recommended when stud(s) are not available. A minimum of six (6)
inches clearance is required around the top, bottom and sides of the unit to ensure access and
proper air ow. Choose a mounting location that permits power connection without the use of
extension cords.

1.3 Operation
Ozotech, Inc., oers the AIM PCS 200 ozone generator with a variety of electrical input
congurations to accommodate a wide range of applications. Congurations include a standard
AC to DC wall transformer (included with purchase), a cigarette lighter adapter or twisted wire for
connection to a hard 12 VDC source such as a car, boat or RV battery circuit. Most supply voltages
uctuate, so it is necessary to monitor your voltage and assure it is within acceptable variance
values listed in section 4.0.
Your ozone generator is designed for simple and easy use.
1. Connect your air preparation device to the air input tubing of the ozone generator.
2. Connect your ozone output tubing, with inline check valve, to your appropriate ozone
injection device.
3. Connect power to the DC jack to turn on your ozone generator.
4. Adjust and balance air ow using Ozotech’s ‘Venturi Calibration Guide’, available for
download at www.ozotech.com/support.
2.0 Maintenance
The AIM series generators are delivered factory tested, calibrated, and adjusted for maximum
eciency and long life. Simple maintenance and appropriate operating conditions are the only
requirements to keep the unit functioning within manufacturer’s specications.
Performing any modications or adjustments to internal components will cause the unit to
function outside of manufacturer’s specications and will cause damage to the unit not covered
under terms of warranty.
2.1 Ozone Generator Maintenance
Frequency of Maintenance: Every 4800 hours or 6 months of operation:
CAUTION: Disconnect ozone generator from power supply before performing
maintenance.
1. Remove the 4 press-in clips that secure cover and remove cover.
2. Clean or replace the Corona Discharge (CD) cells.
a. A CD cell cleaning kit may be purchased from Ozotech, Inc. Reference section 3.0 for
more information.
b. Refer to section 5.1 for CD cell replacement.
3. Clean interior and exterior of chassis.
4. Replace ozone resistant check valves on the air in or ozone gas outlet lines.

4.0 Specications
Input Power Requirements:
• Operating Voltage (specied): 11.7 VDC to 13.9 VDC
• Power consumption: 600mA @ 12VDC (7.2 watts) nominal
Product Size (L x W x H): 7” x 4.5” x 2”
Shipping Weight: 2 lbs.
Ozone Output: 220 mg/hr.
Enclosure: Aluminum
5.0 Component Replacement
Electrical failure is usually the result of a mechanical failure. For example, should the CD cell
become plugged with nitric byproducts or should water back into the cell, it could cause a
catastrophic electrical failure. Proper air preparation can usually avoid the build-up of nitric
byproducts.
5.1 CD Cell Replacement
Should a CD cell need to be replaced, refer to the following procedure and gure 3, in section 7.0.
CAUTION: Disconnect ozone generator from power supply before performing
service.
1. Remove the 4 screws that secure cover and remove cover.
2. Pull the CD cell out of the retaining clips, then disconnect tubing and the high voltage wire
connection.
3. Reverse steps 1 & 2, reconnect power to the ozone generator, and return to service.
