Sodium Hypochlorite Generator Machine

Sodium Hypochlorite Generator Machine

A hypochlorite water generator (also called an on-site sodium hypochlorite generator) is a device that produces sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) — the core disinfectant in bleach — through electrolysis of salt water (NaCl solution) or hydrochloric acid. Unlike pre-packaged disinfectants, it generates fresh, adjustable-concentration sanitizing solution on demand, eliminating storage risks and supply chain dependencies. Ideal for industries requiring continuous, safe disinfection, this equipment delivers a 99.999% sterilization rate against bacteria, viruses (including COVID-19), and fungi.

    ​How Does a Sodium Hypochlorite Generator Machine Work?


    The machine operates on electrolysis technology, with two mainstream configurations to fit different industry needs - both designed for simplicity and low maintenance:

     

    1. Salt Water Electrolysis (Most Common)
    Raw Materials: Tap water + industrial salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) - easy to source and affordable.
    Process: When electricity passes through the brine solution (water + salt), the electrolytic cell splits NaCl into sodium ions (Na⁺) and chloride ions (Cl⁻). At the anode, Cl⁻ forms chlorine gas (Cl₂); at the cathode, Na⁺ reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide (NaOH). These two substances combine to create sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), with concentration adjustable (4–80mg/L available chlorine) via salt input and electrolysis time.

     

    2. Hydrochloric Acid Electrolysis (For Mild Disinfection)
    Raw Materials: Dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) - ideal for scenarios requiring low-irritation disinfection.
    Process: Uses a diaphragm-free cell to convert HCl into slightly acidic hypochlorous acid (HClO, pH 5.0–6.5), safe for skin and food contact without corroding equipment.

    FAQ:

     

    1: What type of salt is needed for a sodium hypochlorite generator machine?

    Use industrial-grade sodium chloride (NaCl ≥99.5% purity) - avoid table salt (contains iodine, which causes electrode scaling). We provide a list of trusted salt suppliers globally.

     

    2: Can the machine work with hard tap water?
    Yes. All models have a built-in pre-filtration system to remove impurities. For extremely hard water (calcium carbonate >300mg/L), we offer an optional water softener accessory (compatible with all models) to protect electrodes.

     

    3: Is the machine noisy during operation?
    No. The electrolysis process is quiet - noise levels are <50dB (equivalent to a home refrigerator), making it suitable for indoor use (e.g., food factories, clinics).

     

    4: Do you offer after-sales service for international customers?
    Yes. We provide 24/7 online technical support, 1-year free warranty (covers electrodes and control panel), and global spare parts delivery (arrives in 3–7 days for major regions).
