The chlorination station is located at the Filtration Plant at 111 Niagara Shore Drive. The amount of chlorine handled is three one-ton containers of liquid chlorine. Two containers are on a scale, with a chlorinator attached to each. The third container is on the floor for a stand-by. Teflon tubing connects the chlorinators to a switchover device.
Chlorine is drawn off only one cylinder at a time.
When that cylinder becomes empty, the switchover device closes the tube and opens the other, so that the second cylinder is drawn off of. Teflon tubing connects the switchover device to the two roto meters in the injector room and the roto meters to the two chlorine ejectors. High level of training of the operators. Preventive maintenance program. Use of accurate and effective operating procedures, written with the participation of the operators.
