Importance of Dry Air for Ozone Generation

See how moist air/oxygen affects ozone output

Relative Ozone Output vs. Air Dewpoint

The above chart shows that the relative ozone output decreases as dewpoint increases.

Critical to all corona discharge ozone systems is proper air preparation. The gas feeding the ozone generator must be very dry (minimum -60 degrees F), because the presence of moisture affects ozone production and leads to the formation of nitric acid. Nitric acid is very corrosive to critical internal parts of a CD ozone generator, which can cause premature failure and will increase the frequency of required maintenance. Make sure you have reliable air drying equipment
