Publication number: 20210372154Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling chlorinators for pools and spas are provided. A controller communicates with a processor positioned within a replaceable cell cartridge of a chlorinator, to allow for remote control and diagnosis of the chlorinator and/or cell cartridge. The cell cartridge stores, in non-volatile memory on board the cartridge, one or more parameters associated with the cartridge. The controller can obtain this information from the processor of the cell cartridge, and can use same to configure operation of the chlorinator. Information relating to remaining cell life can be updated by the controller and stored in the non-volatile memory of the cell cartridge. Electrical and software-based mechanisms are provided for ensuring operation of only compatible cell cartridges with the chlorinator. A system for remotely diagnosing errors associated with the chlorinator is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2021Publication date: December 2, 2021Applicant: Hayward Industries, Inc.Inventors: Patrick Chen, Douglas Sawyer, JR., Michael Nilsson, Raymond Denkewicz

Publication number: 20070248488Abstract: A method for subjecting a microorganism to a combination of ozone and irradiation of UV light which has a synergistic effect on the reduction of the microorganism that may be resistant to either ozone or UV light alone. In particular, Adenovirus and Naegleria fowleri, are significantly more reduced when subjected simultaneously to the combination of ozone and UV light than when subjected only to ozone or UV light, respectively.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2007Publication date: October 25, 2007Applicant: VORTEX CORPORATIONInventor: RAYMOND DENKEWICZ

Publication number: 20070234469Abstract: A self contained battery energized apparatus is mounted within the water tank of a conventional flush toilet to eliminate malodorous gases. Air from the toilet bowl is drawn through the stand pipe in the toilet tank into a housing to expose the air to UV radiation to produce ozone molecules that have an oxidizing effect on organic matter and the UV radiation serves as a germicide and a virucide. The ozonated and oxidized gases are exhausted through a carbon filter.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2007Publication date: October 11, 2007Applicant: VORTEX CORPORATIONInventors: RAYMOND DENKEWICZ, ROLF ENGELHARD

Publication number: 20070113327Abstract: Battery energized apparatus mounted within the water tank for conventional flush toilet operates in any or all of three phases of operation to eliminate odors. During the initial phase, air from the toilet bowl is drawn from the toilet tank into a plenum to expose the air to UV radiation to produce ozone molecules that have an oxidizing effect on organic matter and the UV radiation serves as a germicide and a virucide. During the flush phase, ozone enriched air is entrained in the water flowing into the toilet bowl. During the sanitizing phase, ozone enriched air is channeled from the plenum into the toilet bowl.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2006Publication date: May 24, 2007Inventors: Raymond Denkewicz, Rolf Engelhard

Publication number: 20060270476Abstract: The present invention relates to educational and entertaining playing cards. The cards may be used alone or in combination with other hardware game accessories, such as board games, or software game accessories, such as compact discs and the Internet. Unlike other popular and heavily traded playing cards (e.g. Pokemon) which have limited social and educational value, an educational element has been added to the cards of the present invention without destroying the fun associated with the collecting, trading, and playing of the cards. Educational facts and information about a variety of topics are located on the playing cards, which may be used to play various games. Two different types of game cards are contemplated by the present invention: (1) standard cards and (2) fact cards. The present invention, however, is in no way limited to only these two types of game cards.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 5, 2006Publication date: November 30, 2006Inventor: Raymond Denkewicz
