Each durable, corrosion-resistant Accu-Tab chlorinator is handcrafted in the U.S.A. using high-quality PVC and is backed by a limited warranty. Whats more, the chlorinator has few moving parts, no small openings that can clog and, for convenience, a transparent lid that allows operators to verify tablet levels without interrupting operations.

Calcium hypochlorite (cal-hypo) is a versatile and effective chemical for delivering chlorine into water. Because it is more pH-friendly than gas chlorine, liquid bleach or trichlor tablets, it is easier to achieve water balance. Additionally, the tablets are cyanuric acid-free allowing operators to control the level of stabilizer in their pools. Finally, the Accu-Tab system delivers chlorine consistently and can be adjusted easily to accommodate changes in chlorine demand.

Accu-Tab system specialists are trained and authorized by PPG. Whether its consulting on chlorinator operation, delivering tablets or helping to keep you in compliance with state and local health codes and regulations, your Accu-Tab system specialist can help you succeed from installation and beyond.
Water flows into the chlorinator through a flow meter and level control valve. After the chlorine solution passes through the chlorinator pump, a valve on the discharge side provides precise chlorine residual control. Accu-Tab tablets erode at a predictable rate based on the amount of water, allowing for a consistent delivery of chlorine. Once the water is chlorinated, it flows back into the main water line and is distributed throughout. If the water flow is shut off, the chlorinator stops automatically, ensuring the tablets above the sieve plate remain dry when the unit is not in operation.

ACCU-TAB SYSTEM
High water flow rate, low chlorine concentration ~ 200 ppm Low chlorine concentration results in less scaling and sludge typically once per year cleaning! Chlorinators have a proportional 95% turn-down capability for small bodies of water Large (up to 2") PVC plumbing minimizes spill potential and maintenance Off the shelf replacement parts fewer parts overall Rugged aluminum frame with schedule 40 PVC pipe; chlorinator and pump on one skid Tablets resist breakage and erode consistently based on proprietary manufacturing process
Design Principle

Flexibility
The Accu-Tab system performs more predictably than other calcium hypochlorite systems because of the quality of tablets and the controlled high water flow/lower chlorine concentration delivery technology.
