Abstract: A cooling system for the high voltage electrode of a corona treater includes an elongated hose disposed within the dielectric tube and around which the high voltage wire is spirally wound. The elongated hose is connected to a first port through which cooling fluid is introduced. The cooling fluid flows through the hose and out an open end into the dielectric tube. The cooling fluid then flows out of the dielectric tube through a second port and back to a reservoir after passing through a high voltage isolator.

Abstract: An ozone generator of the type having a high tension electrode and a grounded electrode mounted in a spaced relation, one of the electrodes having a dielectric member applied to or mounted on one of the surfaces of the electrode, the dielectric member including a layer of resilient dielectric material having a coating of particles of an inorganic material either sprinkled on or embedded in the surface of said dielectric material facing the other electrode and a timing circuit connected to said electrodes to provide a constant voltage pulse at intermittent time intervals, the voltage pulses being controlled by a silicon controlled rectifier and the frequency of said rectifier being controlled by a bilateral mosfet.
