Abstract
A three phase power ozonator system in which the head of an ozonator cell containing multiple cylindrical type elements is tri-partitioned to define three sectors in the cell each of which contains a portion of the total number of cylindrical type dielectric elements. The partitions are made of insulating material such as polyvinyl chloride. Each sector is distinct and each sector is adapted to be operated with single phase electrical power. As a result the ozonator cell as a whole is able to operate using three phase electrical power. This arrangement allows for the operation of the ozonator cell in a system having any number of other three phase electrically operated components of equal or smaller electrical load than the ozonator cell in such a way that a balanced electrical load is maintained throughout the system. An electrical supply and control sub-system including a three phase power transformer, current sensors for each electrical sector and voltage sensor for one sector, current and voltage comparators and a variable transformer driven by a reversible electric motor, provides current to the electrodes in all sectors, monitors the current in all phases and turns off the electrical supply if significant imbalances among the sectors are detected.
