ION CHANGER
Ion Exchange Method
Hypochlorous Acid Water
Generating MachineION CHANGER
Ion exchange method removes metal ions such as calcium from the water during production. This allows us to produce water containing almost only hypochlorous acid.
In case of using diluted water of 12% sodium hypochlorite as a raw material, it is possible to produce a high concentration of 300ppm as maximum.
Hypochlorous acid water is made acidic by ion-exchange reaction, so it does not use any materials or deleterious substances that need to be controlled.
a disinfectant that
originated in Japan
Hypochlorous acid water is
an acidic aqueous solution consisting mainly of hypochlorous acid (HCLO),
& once a certain concentration and pH are met, its oxidizing power is effective in sterilization and
deodorization.
Specifically, hypochlorous acid water is effective against viruses and spores, which are difficult to
inactive with the typical disinfectant, alcohol.
In addition, acidic hypochlorous acid water is known to be 80 times more effective than sodium
hypochlorite (the chlorine component of bleach and tap water).

**HOCL is generally produced by white blood cells to fight infection.

The Ion Exchange Method
There are several ways to produce acidic water containing active chlorine components, but “Ion Changer” is a machine that uses the ion exchange method.
The raw materials for the ion exchange method are water and sodium hypochlorite.
As it is, the solution is alkaline just like standard bleach, but the ion exchange process changes it from
alkaline to acidic.
The ion exchange method can produce pure hypochlorous acid without using additives by this process, and it
can adjust the concentration as well.
Other methods include the electrolysis method and the mixed solution method.
The electrolysis is a method in which salt is added to water and electrolyzed.
This method is widely used, but it has the disadvantages that high concentrations cannot be produced, salt
remains in the water, and hypochlorous acid decomposes easily.
The mixed solution method can produce high concentrations, but it may require the deleterious chemicals
such as hydrochloric acid to make the hypochlorous acid water acidic.

Give it a try!
The “Ion Changer” is ready to use when you fill it with 12% sodium hypochlorite, connect the water intake
with a hose, and plug it into a 100V outlet. It is recommended for those who are new to using hypochlorous
acid water, and also for those who have already been using a generating machine but have concerns about
purity, concentration, and safety.
Visit our office to see a demonstration of our equipment.
You can take the generated hypochlorous acid water home with you.
