RJ-2000-C Emer gency Chlorine Scr ubber
Evoqua Water Technologies offers a full range of emergency
scrubbers for protection against accidental leaks of toxic
gases such as chlorine, ammonia and sulfur dioxide.
RJ-2000® Emergency Scrubber
The RJ-2000® scrubber is the world’s most popular
emergency scrubber system. The process is designed to
contain and neutralize chlorine vapors in response to a
gas leak or catastrophic cylinder failure.
The RJ-2000 scrubber uses a unique horizontal flow
path, with a proprietary caustic distribution network, to
absorb better than 99.999% of the chlorine gas entering
the scrubber, in a very compact footprint and low profile.
The RJ-2000 scrubber is the only emergency scrubber to
have been tested by an independent, certified laboratory
in a full 1-ton chlorine gas release. During this test, a
catastrophic accident was simulation with chlorine
release rates of 45 kg/min. The scrubber saw inlet
chlorine concentrations in excess of 500,000 ppm, and
outlet concentrations less than 1ppm, safely below the
5 ppm Uniform Fire Code limit.
How It Works
When a leak occurs, the pump and fan start automatically.
The fan provides sufficient vacuum to contain the chlorine
gas and deliver it to the scrubber. The pump circulates
concentrated caustic solution over the scrubber packing
to absorb virtually all of the chlorine gas.
The entire system is factory assembled and tested for
easy installation.
The RJ-2000-C scrubber has been designed to fit
inside a 40-ft high cube shipping container, to facilitate
shipment by ocean freight.
