Abstract: A system for controlling a supply of ozone to a washing machine during operation thereof. The system comprising a washing machine having an internal drum for containing laundry and a quantity of a water. An ozone generator is connected to the washing machine and the ozone generator produces and supplies the produced ozone to the washing machine for ozonating the water. At least one sensor is provided for sensing a quantity of ozone exhausting from the washing machine during operation thereof, and the at least sensor being coupled to the ozone generator for interrupting production of ozone when a quantity of ozone exhausting from the washing machine exceeds a safe level.

Abstract: A washing machine having a washing volume and a mixing chamber below the washing volume and fluid communication therewith by means of a drain outlet at the underside of the washing volume. The mixing chamber receives water from the mixing volume through the drain outlet. At least one sparger is disposed within the mixing chamber for connection to an ozone source to introduce ozone into the water within the mixing chamber. The sparger is configured to introduce at least some ozone into the water within the mixing chamber in a downward direction away from the washing volume.

Abstract: A washing machine includes a washing volume for receiving laundry. The washing machine also includes an ozone inlet for providing ozone to the washing volume and an ozone outlet for receiving gaseous ozone from the washing volume. An ozone sensor is provided for measuring the gaseous ozone passing through the ozone outlet. A controller may be connected to the ozone sensor to receive an ozone measurement and to determining a degree of disinfection by the washing cycle.
