Brominators provide a simple & effective method of controlling the dissolution of solid Bromine tablets into cooling water systems. Bromine like chlorine, prevents the build up of biofilm that can occur on heat exchangers & evaporative surfaces. However unlike chlorine, Bromine continues to be effective in waters with a pH up to 9 which makes it preferential to use.

Various options are available to control the tablet dissolution rate ranging from simple manual to automatic control. With manual control the rate at which the tablets dissolve is controlled by regulating the amount of water passing through the Brominator which is usually monitored by a flow meter.

With automatic control a Redox controller constantly monitors the bromine level to control a solenoid valve on the water inlet to the Brominator. Alternatively a timer can be used in conjunction to allow controlled addition during set times of the week/day.
