  Enaly 1000 BT-12 Ozone Generator, Model # 1000BT-12 The 1000BT-12 ozone generator is capable of delivering up to 1gram of ozone per hour from pure oxygen. The 1000BT-12 ozone generator is designed to continuously generate ozone by corona discharge. The conversion of oxygen to ozone occurs in a reaction cell excited by a high voltage potential. A control circuit allows the user to manually adjust the ozone output between 40-100% of its rated output.
