Industrial Use of Chlorine Tablets for Food Safety
SES tablet delivery systems are made in a wide variety of sizes to meet any chlorination need or requirement. With few moving parts, the chlorinator systems offer low maintenance and minimize the possibility of spills or leaks.
Accu-Tab® tablets offer a more neutral pH level and are less corrosive than other chlorination methods. Only three inches in diameter, the tablets are easily dropped into the chlorinator and allow for easy storage.
To estimate Accu-Tab tablet consumption (lbs) through an SES water chlorination system:
GPM x PPM x .0005 = Amount of available chlorine required per hour
Amount of chlorine required per hour x 1.5 = Number of tablets required per hour
Example: 200 GPM x 25 PPM x .0005 = 2.5 lbs of available chlorine needed per each hour; 2.5 lbs of available chlorine x 1.5 = 3.75 lbs of tablets required each hour

To estimate Accu-Tab consumption (kilos) through an SES water chlorination system:
LPM x MPL x .00006 = Amount of available chlorine required per hour
Amount of available chlorine required per hour x 1.5 = Kilos of tablets used per hour
Example: 200 LPM x 25 MPL x .00006 = .3 kilos of available chlorine required per hour; .3 kilos of available chlorine x 1.5 = .45 kilos of tablets per hour
Kilos of Available Chlorine by Chlorinator Model:

1.81 to 3.64 kilos / hour |
| 361000 |
3.64 to 5.90 kilos / hour |
Chiller Seeding Estimate:
1/4 pound of granular cal-hypo is required for each 1,000 gallons of total chiller capacity in order to bring the "pre-bird" (clean water) residual chlorine level to 20 PPM.
Example:20,000 gallon chiller = 20 x .25 = 5 lbs of granular cal-hypo to equal 20 PPM.
