GAS CHLORINATOR SERIES CLM-2
The SUPERIORTM Series CLM-2/5 Gas Chlorinator is a state-of-the-art, vacuum-operated, solution feed type which mounts directly on a chlorine valve. The chlorinator is mounted onto the chlorine valve of a cylinder, wall manifold or ton container adaptor, using a very heavyduty, positive yoke clamp connection. A chlorine gas flow meter indicates the amount of chlorine being fed. Chlorine flow rate is manually adjusted and the design permits easy addition of a number of automatic flow rate control devices. A high efficiency, water operated ejector produces the vacuum necessary to operate the system. The ejector assembly contains a back-flow check valve system to prevent pressurized water from entering the chlorinator. A spring-opposed diaphragm vacuum regulator controls the chlorine gas flow rate and also acts as the safety shut-off valve.
CLM-2 TYPICAL INSTALLATION
FEATURES
The SUPERIORTM Series CLM-2 represents the most modern design technology coupled with the very best materials avail- able to create an outstanding, user friendly piece of equipment. It is designed with user safety as a primary concern.
1. A new ultra-thick, fluoroplastic yoke coating gives SUPERIORTM corrosion resistance, won’t crack, peel or chip. Chlorine
will not diffuse through it to cause coating bubbling and peeling.
2. All molded parts are fiber-glass reinforced ABS plastic, designed for SUPERIORTM strength, warp resistance and chlorine
resistance.
3. The rate valve “Seat” is pure fluoroplastic and will not swell, stick or become brittle with age or exposure to liquid chlorine.
4. All external bolts and nuts are Titanium for complete corrosion resistance. A SUPERIORTM exclusive. There are no stainless
steel or monel nuts and bolts to corrode and freeze up in the presence of moist chlorine gas.
5. Extra heavy-duty outlet threads on the ejector diffuser prevents breakage from over-tightening or “bumping” of the ejector
assembly.
6. The “Universal” ejector diffuser allows use of high pressure solution hose, direct ejector mounting in mains, or in-line piping
with rigid solution pipe, without special adaptors.
7. Easier to service and perform routine maintenance, with standard size wrench lugs provided on all screwed-together ejector
parts. No more pipe wrenches to accidentally tear and scrape plastic surfaces.
8. All vacuum fitting holes are heavily reinforced to prevent the possibility of cracking from over-tightening fittings.
9. “Dual-pressure” check valve is standard on all SUPERIORTM gas Chlorinators. Proven high back-pressure unitized check
valve design protects against sudden surges up to 300 PSIG while a spring-loaded diaphragm check provides positive shutoff
even when there is no back-pressure to force the seat closed.
10. Fewer parts, combined with SUPERIOR materials and a SUPERIOR design gives you a SUPERIORTM Gas Chlorinator.

FLOW METER CAPACITIES
A dual English/Metric scale variable area flow metering tube is provided with a maximum capacity of 250 pounds per 24 hours
- 5Kg/Hr Model CLM-2) or 500 pounds per 24 hours - 10 Kg/Hr (Model CLM-5). All metering tubes are interchangeable and
may be changed in the field without special tools.
MODULAR DESIGN
SUPERIORTM Gas Chlorinators have been designed to give the maximum flexibility in system installation. The vacuum
regulator and metering tube panel are close coupled and mounted onto the chlorine cylinder as a single assembly. The ejector
can be located wherever plumbing and/or hydraulic conditions make it most desirable. Modular design also makes it easy and
inexpensive to expand or upgrade the system. The metering tube panel may be detached from the vacuum regulator at any time,
in just a few minutes, if future requirements or safety dictate a remote metering application, or multiple point chlorination is
desired.
MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION
One of SUPERIOR’S major competitive advantages is the use of the finest, strongest and most durable materials available.
Extensive use of Fluoroplastics and fiberglass reinforced thermoplastics allow SUPERIORTM Gas Chlorinators to withstand
attack by chlorine in any form and to give the longest operational life. Many parts are guaranteed for the life of the equipment
against chlorine damage.
SYSTEM OPERATIONS
The vacuum regulator is securely clamped onto the chlorine valve. Water under pressure flows through the ejector at high
velocity which causes a strong vacuum to be created. This opens the check valves in the ejector assembly and transmits a
vacuum signal through the meter tube/rate valve panel back to the vacuum regulator. When the vacuum reaches a pre-set level,
the diaphragm in the regulator moves to open the chlorine inlet safety valve, permitting gas to flow from the chlorine cylinder.
The spring-opposed diaphragm and inlet valve regulate the vacuum at this point. Chlorine gas passes through the flow meter
panel and rate control valve to the ejector. The gas mixes with the ejector water and is discharged through the diffuser into the
water being treated.
SPECIFICATIONS
The chlorinator shall be SUPERIORTM MODEL CLM-2/5 manufactured by Chemical Injection Technologies, Inc., Ft. Pierce, Florida, and shall have a maximum capacity of _______ pounds per day (gr/hr)of chlorine feed and shall be equipped with a chlorine flow meter of _______ pounds per day (gr/hr).
The chlorinator shall consist of a close-coupled vacuum regulator/flow meter, and ejector/check valve. Each of these assemblies shall be capable of being individually located wherever safety and/or operator convenience dictates. The vacuum regulator/flow meter assembly shall be capable of being separated into independent vacuum regulator and metering panel assemblies at any time for remote metering or multiple point chlorination applications.
The vacuum regulator/flow meter shall mount directly on the chlorine valve of a chlorine cylinder, wall manifold or ton container adaptor by means of a positive yoke type clamp having an integral tightening screw with slide bar handle. No wrenches or other tools shall be required to mount or dismount the vacuum regulator from the chlorine valve. The chlorine valve/chlorinator inlet adaptor shall be constructed of corrosion-proof fluoroplastic material which shall be inert to the effects of wet, dry or liquid chlorine. The inlet safety shutoff/vacuum regulating valve shall be of capsulated design, easily removable as a unit from the outlet side of the yoke. A fluoroplastic filter shall be installed in the vacuum regulator inlet and shall be capable of removing impurities greater than 25 microns. A pressure relief valve shall be incorporated into the vacuum regulator to prevent pressure from building up in the system. All external screws and nuts shall be made of Titanium to prevent corrosion.
​
The vacuum regulator/flow meter bodies shall be con- structed of fiberglass reinforced thermoplastic material and shall incorporate a flow rate control valve made of fluoro- plastic material which is inert to the corrosive effects of chlorine.The rate valve metering tip shall be constructed of metal which is completely impervious to the effects of wet, dry or liquid chlorine attack. Design shall provide for full closing of the rate valve without engaging the control surfaces, to prevent damage. Minimum calibrated feed rate shall be 1/20th of maximum flow meter scale (20:1 turn- down ratio). Accuracy shall be ±2% of maximum.
Vacuum shall be created by a fixed-throat venturi/ejector system connected directly to the chlorine solution diffuser. A dual high pressure/low-pressure check valve system shall prevent water from entering the gas system. The ejector assembly shall be capable of withstanding water pressure up to 300 PSIG (20.7 Bars). A universal type chlorine solution diffuser shall be provided which shall allow close-coupling of the ejector to a water main, use of flexible solution hose or rigid solution pipe without the use of special adaptors.
