Well, it looks like the list server is *NOT* going to allow me to have a Subject line on that e-mail... Sorry for the duplicates.
For anybody reading this other than Terry, keep in mind: This design is intended for use with ANIMALS, not human beings, using just tap water, to make a low quality product that MAY NOT BE SAFE for human consumption. > Notes to follow in reply... Here are the promised notes on the silver injector sketch... >>>>>> begin included message Terry, Here's my sketch of a flow-through CS injector. The body is PVC sewer pipe of whatever size you like once you're standing in the plumbing aisle of your local home center store. Make it whatever length it has to be for the number of electrodes you use. Cement an end cap on one end and a sewer cleanout fitting on the other. This will give you a threaded in plug that's fairly easy to remove so you can service it whenever the electrodes need replacing. Drill and tap holes in each end for whatever kind of plumbing fittings you need to put it in the line to the tank. Or drill holes and cement in appropriate PVC fittings, if that's easier. Or you can attach them anywhere else that makes your job easier. The electrodes are in two rows on opposite sides of the pipe, assuming you're going to use polarity switching like I suggested. If you don't use polarity switching, then you'll have to connect all the silver pieces to the positive side of your power supply and use a stainless steel bolt for the cathode feedthrough, stuck in another part of the pipe. I expect you will need extra cathode area to get the current up to 6 amps, so put the head of the bolt on the outside and make it long enough to attach a piece of stainless sheet between a couple of nuts on the end of the bolt inside the pipe. Gasket the bolt to make the feedthrough water tight. The electrode assembly is pretty simple. The head of the nylon screw won't contaminate the water by becoming part of the electrode like a metal bolt would. The rubber washer under the head is a water seal. The electrode is a 1 oz silver coin or ingot with a 1/4" hole drilled through it. The brass washer and wire make the electrical connection. The wire goes out through a small hole in the PVC that's still under the electrode gasket so that it's water sealed as well. The thick, spongy gasket seals the edges of the electrode against leaks, and provides pressure for the electrical connection, pushing the brass washer against the coin or ingot. Make sure it's a closed cell foam so water won't seep through it. Use nylon, brass, or whatever kind of washer and nut you want on the outside of the pipe. Let me know if you have any questions.
