Accu-Tab System: Tablet Chlorination
The
Accu-Tab System, manufactured by PPG Industries, Inc., combines
uniquely designed, patented chlorinators with slow release 68% calcium
hypochlorite to provide one complete system for tablet chlorination
(NSF 60 listed).
The Accu-Tab System has been utilized in
drinking water applications throughout North America for primary
disinfectant treatment or remote booster chlorination stations. It's
been used to chlorinate water plants as large as 14 MGD, with demands
exceeding 400 PPD of chlorine. On the other end of the scale, smaller
chlorination units are available with turn-down ability to supply 35
GPM well water users without over-chlorination.
Used together,
the Accu-Tab System's chlorinators and tablets allow for consistent and
controllable dosages. Accurate enough to perform under the close daily
scrutiny of USDA inspectors, the Accu-Tab System is now used in a
significant number of poultry processing plants, in addition to other
types of food and beverage processing facilities in the U.S.
There are a number of different chlorinator sizes available for
converting the tablet into a liquid solution depending on the chlorine demand and system flow requirements. For most applications, there are
two primary installation options,
gravity return and pressure return. Both options utilize the patented
Accu-Tab chlorinator as a component of the custom-engineered
PowerPro System for accurate and consistent chlorination. CEG can assist you with proper equipment sizing for your application.
Typically
specified when the chlorine effluent is to be returned to the main
water stream in an open tank, channel, or filter, and when the
chlorinator can be physically located at an elevation higher than the
re-injection point. The gravity system represents the ultimate in
reliability with negligible costs. Nothing moves but the water.
Simply, the chlorinated solution from the Accu-Tab chlorinator is
gravity fed into the clear well, contact chamber, or reservoir.
PowerPro Gravity Return System
Pressure Retrun System Typically
required when the chlorinator effluent must be directed to multiple
locations, or any time the chlorinated stream is to be re-injected to a
pressurized tank or line. A portion of the main flow is introduced
into the PowerPro System where Accu-Tab tablets are eroded at a
controlled rate. A centrifugal pump reinjects the resulting
chlorinated solution back into the main water line. This sidestream
loop is nearly identical to the familiar chlorine gas injection system.

Chlorination Tablets Accu-Tab
SI (scale inhibitor) tablets provide a convenient to use source of
concentrated calcium hypochlorite to instantly provide chlorine for
wastewater, potable water, and process water applications. Suitable
for water with up to 500 ppm calcium, Accu-Tab SI tablets are specially
formulated to inhibit scaling in hard water applications. The scale
inhibitor tablets provide chlorination and scale prevention in one easy
step. NSF 60 listed, Accu-Tab SI tablets are solely designed for use
with Accu-Tab feeders to ensure accurate and consistent results.
