Absolute Ozone Magnum200 Ozone Generator

Overview

The Absolute Ozone Magnum200 Ozone Generator is a high-capacity, laboratory- and pilot-scale ozone production system engineered for precision, reliability, and long-term operational stability. Designed and manufactured in Canada, it employs corona discharge technology—using high-voltage electrical fields across oxygen-fed dielectric gaps—to generate ozone (O₃) from medical- or industrial-grade oxygen feed gas. Unlike air-fed systems, the Magnum200 requires an external oxygen source (≥90% purity), enabling consistent output of high-concentration ozone (5–12% by mass) with minimal nitrogen oxide byproducts. Its robust architecture supports continuous operation under controlled environmental conditions—requiring only adequate ventilation and stable ambient temperatures—and is widely deployed in water disinfection validation studies, pharmaceutical cleanroom decontamination protocols, advanced oxidation process (AOP) research, and analytical reference gas generation.

Key Features

• Corona discharge ozone generation optimized for oxygen feed gas, delivering high-purity O₃ with low NOₓ formation
• Adjustable operating pressure range (30–100 psig) to accommodate variable downstream resistance and mass transfer requirements
• Stable ozone output of 200 g/h at nominal conditions (10.6 ppd), scalable to 230 g/h (12.2 ppd) under peak configuration
• Integrated 3-phase power interface (208–230 V AC, 50/60 Hz) with thermal overload protection and real-time current monitoring
• Leak-tested stainless steel and aluminum enclosure rated to 150 psig, certified for safe handling of pressurized O₂ and O₃ streams
• PTFE-lined 304 stainless steel and brass gas pathways ensure chemical compatibility with ozone and prevent catalytic decomposition
• Modular 3/8″ stainless steel inlet and outlet fittings facilitate rapid integration into existing gas distribution manifolds or reaction vessels
• Low-maintenance design with no consumable electrodes or replaceable dielectrics—service intervals aligned with routine calibration and leak verification

Sample Compatibility & Compliance

The Magnum200 is compatible with oxygen sources meeting ISO 8573-1 Class 2:2:2 (oil-free, particle-free, dew point ≤ –40 °C) specifications. It does not generate ozone from ambient air; therefore, it avoids nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) impurities common in non-oxygen-fed systems—critical for applications requiring trace-level contaminant control (e.g., USP , ASTM D1129, ISO 14644-1 cleanroom validation). The unit complies with CSA C22.2 No. 107.1 (Industrial Control Equipment) and meets CE marking requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC Directive 2014/30/EU) and low-voltage safety (LVD Directive 2014/35/EU). While not intrinsically rated for hazardous locations, it is intended for installation in well-ventilated, non-explosive environments per NFPA 99 and CGA G-10 standards for ozone handling.

Software & Data Management

The Magnum200 operates as a standalone hardware platform with analog and digital I/O interfaces (0–10 VDC and 4–20 mA) for integration into programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. Optional RS-485 Modbus RTU communication enables remote parameter adjustment—including flow setpoint, pressure target, and runtime scheduling—as well as real-time telemetry of power draw, internal temperature, and fault status. All operational logs are timestamped and exportable via serial interface for GLP-compliant record retention. When paired with validated ozone monitors (e.g., UV absorption analyzers per ISO 11133), the system supports audit-ready documentation aligned with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements when used within a controlled electronic record environment.

Applications

• Validation of ozone-based sterilization cycles in pharmaceutical isolators and transfer hatches
• Generation of calibrated ozone challenge gases for sensor calibration and method development (e.g., EPA Method TO-11A)
• Research into ozone kinetics and radical chain reactions in aqueous and gaseous phase AOPs
• Disinfection efficacy testing of filters, membranes, and HVAC components per ISO 14644-3 and ASTM E2197
• Pre-treatment of recirculated lab water loops to suppress biofilm formation without residual chlorine
• Controlled oxidation of organic standards in environmental chemistry reference material preparation

FAQ

Does the Magnum200 require an external oxygen supply?

Yes. It is designed exclusively for oxygen feed gas (≥90% purity); ambient air is not suitable due to nitrogen interference and reduced ozone yield.
Can the unit be operated continuously for extended periods?

Yes—provided ambient temperature remains between 10–35 °C and ventilation exceeds 4 air changes per hour. Duty cycle is unrestricted under these conditions.
What maintenance is required beyond routine inspection?

No scheduled consumable replacement is needed. Recommended quarterly checks include leak verification (helium mass spectrometry or soap solution), inlet filter cleaning, and thermal sensor calibration.
Is the Magnum200 compatible with ozone destruct units?

Yes. Its 3/8″ stainless steel outlet is directly interfaced with standard catalytic or thermal ozone destruct modules compliant with OSHA PEL (0.1 ppm TWA) and ACGIH TLV guidelines.
Does Absolute Ozone provide factory calibration certificates?

Yes—each unit ships with a NIST-traceable ozone output certificate, pressure test report, and electrical safety compliance documentation.
