Setting up the electrolyzer

Level the electrolyzer for operation. Attach the hydrostatic column/electrolyte feed tube to the feed port at the bottom of the electrolyzer. The length of the feed tube/column will depend on how much pressure you want. Any length from 3.5 to 8 will suffice. You can add a set of gas [Pg.121]

Set up the hydrostatic column along a wall or other support structure, and attach the tubes with pipe hangers. Attach the top of the column tube to a reservoir. [Pg.122]

The reservoir will be filled on a regular basis to maintain hydrostatic pressure and provide electrolyte and/or distilled water to the system. The reservoir should have a cover or lid to keep out debris and to slow evaporation. Make a small hole in the cover so that a vacuum is not created in the reservoir. [Pg.122]

The reservoir can be anything from a 32 oz. recycled yogurt container to a large custom built [Pg.122]

Whatever type of container you use, drill a hole in the bottom, and insert and epoxy a barb or threaded/barb connector through the hole. [Pg.123]
