This powerful unit is capable of producing ozone from either dry air or oxygen and is designed for both <strong>rack mount and benchtop applications<\/strong>. Whether you&#8217;re in a water treatment facility, an industrial setting, or a commercial building, the RMU16-K3 delivers serious ozone performance in a compact, air-cooled design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Versatile Ozone Generation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>RMU16-K3<\/strong> is engineered for maximum adaptability. It can operate under <strong>vacuum or pressure<\/strong>, and its <strong>air-cooled system<\/strong> eliminates the need for complex water-cooling infrastructure, making it easy to integrate into almost any application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Performance Specs:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Up to <strong>20 g\/hr of ozone from 7 LPM of oxygen<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Up to <strong>10 g\/hr of ozone from 15 LPM of dry air<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Uses <strong>corona discharge technology<\/strong> for efficient ozone generation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This flexibility makes the RMU16-K3 ideal for a range of applications, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Water bottling plants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Site remediation systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Air treatment systems in commercial and industrial buildings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rack Mountable for Modular Design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RMU16-K3 fits easily into a standard <strong>19&#8243; rack<\/strong>, allowing for a modular design that supports <strong>future expansion<\/strong>. Need more ozone output later? Just add another unit\u2014no major redesign required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prefer a wall-mounted option? The <strong>VMUS-10<\/strong> ozone generator offers the same internal components and performance as the RMU16-K3 in a convenient wall-mount enclosure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Built for Durability and Simplicity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Standard Features Include:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rack or benchtop mounting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Built-in <strong>flow meter with valve<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adjustable ozone output<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pressure switch<\/strong> for enhanced safety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Detachable power cord<\/strong> for easy installation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Powder-coated aluminum cabinet<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advanced Circuit Protection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RMU16-K3 includes an advanced <strong>power inverter board<\/strong> that protects the corona cell and transformer from failure. If the system detects contamination\u2014such as moisture or dust\u2014it automatically shuts off ozone production. Every 6 seconds, the inverter will attempt to restart the system and will resume operation once conditions stabilize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This <strong>self-protecting feature<\/strong> prevents damage and minimizes downtime, even in less-than-ideal conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rebuildable Corona Cell<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Feed gas quality is the most common cause of ozone generator issues. Whether it\u2019s <strong>wet air<\/strong> or <strong>impure oxygen<\/strong>, the RMU16-K3 is built to handle it. The <strong>corona cell is fully rebuildable<\/strong>, allowing for simple disassembly, cleaning, or replacement of core components like the <strong>quartz dielectric<\/strong> and <strong>stainless steel shell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even in cases of severe contamination, the RMU16-K3 can be brought back to full performance\u2014saving you from costly repairs or full replacements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ozone Production from Oxygen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>O\u2082 Flow Rate<\/th><th>O\u2083 Output<\/th><th>O\u2083 Concentration<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>2 LPM<\/td><td>10.18 g\/hr<\/td><td>6.37%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4 LPM<\/td><td>16.59 g\/hr<\/td><td>5.19%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6 LPM<\/td><td>19.19 g\/hr<\/td><td>4.00%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8 LPM<\/td><td>21.00 g\/hr<\/td><td>3.29%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>10 LPM<\/td><td>22.15 g\/hr<\/td><td>2.77%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>12.5 LPM<\/td><td>24.74 g\/hr<\/td><td>2.48%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>15 LPM<\/td><td>26.80 g\/hr<\/td><td>2.24%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Recommended Oxygen Source:<\/strong><br>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oxidationtech.com\/products\/oxygen-generator\/og15.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.oxidationtech.com\/products\/oxygen-generator\/og15.html\">OG-15 Oxygen Concentrator<\/a><\/strong> is an ideal match for the RMU16-K3, delivering 10 LPM of oxygen to achieve full 20 g\/hr ozone output.
