CHAPTER 4 CHLORINATION SYSTEM PMCS
Section I. General system information
4-1 Introduction. Chapter 4 contains Preventive Maintenance Checks and services for the Reverse Osmosis Water Purification
Barge Chlorination System. Operating and maintenance procedures for the chlorination system are described in detail in TM 55-
1930-209-14&P-4. TM 55-1930-209-14&P-4, Appendix C also contains I complete Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services for
the Chlorination System.
4-2 Major components. The chlorination system consists of a priming brine tank and holding tank, chlorine generation and
recirculation unit, metering pump control unit, acid tank various pumps, flowmeters, pressure gauges, and valves. In addition, there
are associated indicator lights, LED displays, fluid lines, piping, sensors, switches, and electrical circuitry. Major components of the
chlorination system, their basic functions, and their location on the barge are listed in Table 4-1.
