Description

T

The Set :

You can select :

– A 100x50mm pair of 1xMMO in plate + 1Cathode plate
– An simple mesh Anode of 150x60mm as draw+pictures
– A 200x60mm pair of 1xMMO in mesh + 1Cathode plate
– A complete lid-set for laboratory electrolysis or swiming pool. (everything needed for use except the PSU and the jar)

Specification :

– Anode : MMO made of Ru-Ir coating on Titanium substrate provides excellent resistance to chemicals, and oxidation.

– Electrodes size (as the pictures):
– 100x50x1mm of plate working surface + thread connectors,
– 200x60x1,2mm of working surface + thread connectors
– Cathode : pure titanium plate, same size, Grade 1.
– The lifetime is very high, but depends on the use conditions (15 000 hours in swiming pool)
– Max current is 200mA/Cm2 for chlorate, less for hypochlorite.
– The coating is 12g/m² 50/50 Ir/Ru for the 200x60mm model and 8g/m² 30/70 Ir/Ru for the 100x50mm model (this point impact the prices).
– Max working temperature: near 70~80°C (higher temperature = slightly shorter lifetime but better yield for chlorate. Hypochlorite must stay under 40°C)
– This anode allow to electrolyze from chloride to chlorate in one step.
– The lid is 120x120x2mm in white PVC (more resistant to chlorine gas than PMMA old version).
– Durable and reliable laboratory equipment.
– This coating is reliable and is enable to reach 75 % of yield at 65°C during thousands of hours without visible degradation. (with 3 or 4g of persulfate/liter).

Warning:

– Put the « + » wire on the Anode (the dark one) and the « – » on the 1 or 2 Cathodes.
– Ru-Ir coating is quite sensitive : never chock or strike them.
– Avoid fluorine and all fluorine salt (persulfate works very well).
– Respect the max current to avoid fast degradation.
– Don’t reverse polarity, it will rapidly destroyed the electrodes.
– Gas are dangerous and flammable, the running cell MUST work in appropriate place.
– Read the manual.
– In some countries, for non-laboratories, some chlorate and their concentrations are restricted.

Package included:

– The selected pair of MMO (200×60 in mesh or 100×50 in plate) + cathode + 2 PTFE washers
or
– The simple Anode in mesh 150x60mm in M6x1mm connector
or
– A lid-set, including : 1 200x60mm Anode + 1 Cathode + PVC Lid of 120x120x2mm + Spacer + 100grams K-Persulfate + pH paper test book + 15mL Methylene blue dropper + 2 PTFE washers + 2 Hex nuts M6x1 + 2 electric Terminal Connectors.
