4. Adjustion
The ozone unit is equipped with a plus and a minus controller (4./6.). Herewith, the ozone output can be adjusted
continuously from 1 to 10. A standard value is 10 mg ozone/hour for 100 l of salt water; for fresh water approx.
5 mg ozone/hour.
To determine the exact ozone requirement of the aquarium, we recommend to use the ozone unit combined
with an ORP (redox potential) controller, e. g. Aqua Medic mV controller or mV computer. The mV computer
switches the ozone unit off automatically as soon as the adjusted set value of the redox potential is reached.
Overdosing of ozone is toxic for all life in aquarium.
For start up, we recommend to increase the ozone output slowly over a period of 14 days to let the biology of
the aquarium adjust to better water quality. The redox potential can be monitored using the mV monitor, but
the ozone unit cannot be controlled.

5. Failures
The ozone production may decrease due to water or dirt entering the ozone element. In this case, air can be
blown through the unit to remove water and dirt particles. If this doesn't help, please send the unit in for
checking.
6. Safety instructions
Free ozone is harmful to your health if it enters the respiratory tract. It is therefore very important to ensure
that ozone is only produced in the required quantity. If excess ozone occurs (ozone odor), the exhaust air should
be released into the open air or via a residual ozone destruction system. The permissible MAK value (maximum
workplace concentration) for ozone is 0.1 ppm (200 μg / m3). Ozone is already perceived at 1/5 to 1/10 (0.02
ppm) of the value.
The ozone unit is approved for indoor use only.
When working on the device, the mains plug must be unplugged.
If the cable is damaged, the device must not be operated.
