LOC Dosing System – Chemical Dosing Systems

Introduction

Cost-effective automated chlorine monitoring is essential for many pool applications, and the LOC dosing system provides reliable water quality control through proven open amperometric cell technology. As a retailer of hot tub spare parts, I stock this economical system that offers automated chlorine residual monitoring with PPM display for effective water management in suitable applications.

Cost-Effective Chlorine Monitoring

The LOC system utilizes open amperometric cells that offer a relatively low-cost method of automating chlorine residual monitoring, with readings displayed in parts per million (PPM). This economical approach provides automated water quality control while maintaining affordability for budget-conscious installations.

The cost-effective design makes automated chlorine monitoring accessible for applications where advanced closed cell technology may not be economically justified while still providing reliable water quality management.

Broad Application Suitability

Most pool applications are suited to open amperometric cell technology, making the LOC system versatile for various installation types. The proven technology provides reliable chlorine monitoring for standard pool environments where water conditions are relatively stable.

The broad application suitability ensures the system can accommodate diverse installation requirements while providing effective automated chlorine control across different pool types and usage patterns.

Flow and Pressure Dependencies

The open cell functionality depends on maintaining constant flow and pressure across the sample block, requiring stable hydraulic conditions for optimal performance. This dependency ensures accurate readings while requiring proper system design to maintain consistent sample flow.

Consistent flow and pressure conditions are essential for reliable cell operation while proper hydraulic design ensures the sample conditions necessary for accurate chlorine measurement.

Operational Considerations

The open cell output can be affected by factors such as combined chlorine, stabilizers, and other oxidants present in pool water. These influences may require consideration during system setup and operation to ensure accurate readings and proper dosing control.

Calibration may be required more frequently than closed amperometric options due to the open cell’s exposure to varying water conditions and potential interference from chemical compounds.

24/7 Circulation Requirement

Circulation must operate continuously on a 24/7 basis when using open amperometric systems to maintain proper cell function and accurate readings. This continuous operation ensures fresh sample water reaches the cell while maintaining optimal measurement conditions.

System Integration Requirements

The LOC system requires additional components including pumps (where applicable), chemical storage tanks, and other accessories to form a complete dosing system. These additional components ensure comprehensive water management while providing the infrastructure necessary for automated chemical delivery.
