The certified OZONE UM-80 ozonator, which is supplied to and used in as many as 12 countries as well as Ukraine, complies with all the 25 medical and technical requirements for medical ozonators, approved by the Ukrainian Ministry of Health and the Ukrainian Association of ozone therapeutists and medical equipment manufacturers (Kharkiv). The Universal medical OZONE UM-80 apparatus for ozone therapy has been registered at the Ukrainian Ministry of Health and approved for application as of 26.03.2004 (reference № 2578/2004). 

The OZONE UM-80 has also been registered at the Ministry for Heath and Social Development of the Russian Federation, approved for application throughout the whole Russian Federation (State registration certificate reference № 2010/07192 as of 24.06.2010). The OZONE UM-80 has been registered in Kazakhstan (registration reference № 7 №010319 dated 21.11.2012). The OZONE UM-80 has been approved for application in Georgia, (Certificate reference № 61-017, granted by the Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Issues as of 22.01.2010) and Azerbaijan (since 2008). 

In order to increase the ozonator operation safety, create a power reserve, improve the operation stability, extend the service life, prevent the overheating of the discharge chamber, with due regard for the maximum ozone concentrations of up to 80 mg/l to be applied in medicine, as we have clinically proved, the abovementioned ozonator, which produces the maximum ozone concentration of 150 mg/l, is calibrated for the fine control of ozone concentration ranging from 0,0 up to 80-100 mg/l with the step of 0,1 mg/l, at any oxygen flow rate. As evidenced by the experience of operating other manufacturers’ ozonators, the discharge chamber overheating may result in heightened fire hazard. 

Thus, even producing such a high and unattainable for other manufacturers ozone concentration of 80 mg/l, the ozonator operates at half its capacity, and with low concentrations it works hundreds of times below its full capacity, which guarantees its safe and long service life, as has been attested to by its safe operation spanning 12 years. The OZONE UM-80 ozonator with an inbuilt ozone concentration gauge has been constructed on the component basis of the leading foreign firms. We provide PC-assisted metal cutting and case manufacturing at the works as well as double coating with ozone-resistant French powder paint processed at t=200°С. The assembly of SMD electronic components and microprocessors is carried out on the special German ERSA automated lines in compliance with the ISO – 9001 standard.

With its technical specifications and treatment potential, the ozonator is a device of the new generation, the perfect in comparison with those of other manufacturers, the best in the CIS and second to none in the world. 

KhARTRON – ENERGO Scientfic-manufacturing enterprise (the leading developer of electronic and automatic equipment, software and space-rocket hardware control systems both in Ukraine and the CIS) developed the software and systems to run all the ozonator operation modes.

The ozonator is universal since it allows for producing both low therapeutic ozone concentrations (up to 10 mg/l) and high ozone concentrations applied in surgery and dermacosmetology (up to 80 mg/l). Various modes can be set on the colour LCD and automatically controlled with the help of the keyboard: option, adjustment, setting and operation, stopping and starting, as well as the digital representation of ozone concentration, flow speed and the time of operation. The time for setting operation modes of the ozonator has been reduced several times in comparison with other manufacturers. 

The main technical specifications:

The oxygen, finely purified by means of the additional filters, enters the space between two dielectrics – coaxially placed into each other glass tubes (the double barrier produced in Germany). One electrode is the outer metalised tube surface of a large diameter whereas the other electrode is the inner metalised tube surface of a smaller diameter. If high-tension current is delivered onto the metalised electrodes, an electric discharge emerges in the space between the outer and the inner tubes. The oxygen, passing through the discharge space between the two tubes (the double electric barrier of the discharge chamber), doesn’t contact the electrode metal at all and, consequently, there’s no transfer of ions and molecules of electrode metal and their oxides into the ozone-oxygen mixture. The purity of the ozonised oxygen mixture is provided by the additional filters of the two-tier oxygen purification system and the construction of the discharge chamber with the double barrier, due to which neither the oxygen nor the produced ozonised oxygen mixture can immediately contact with the metal of the electrodes.

The double barrier principle in the discharge camera is employed by all the manufacturers in Germany, Italy, England, France and the only in the CIS Institute of ozone therapy and medical equipment. In all medical ozonators manufactured in the CIS, the electric discharge passes between two plates or tubes made of noncorrosive steel, the so-called "one barrier”. According to the data of Moscow state university, the temperature in the discharge point of the "one barrier” ozonator reaches 1000°С thus allowing for the transfer of rustless steel metal ions into the ozonised oxygen mixture and then into the ozonised physiological solution. When subject to repairs, such ozonators exhibit numerous indentations on the inner surfaces of noncorrosive plates especially after the spillage of the discharge chamber with physiological solution, which attests to the fact that metal grams have been transferred parenterally. To enhance the reliability of ozonator operation, the manufacturers have implemented foreign technologies and design, the cutting-edge electronic and element base as well as new cases that belong to the class of double isolation installations, thus providing complete electrical safety for the service personnel. There’s an Italian reductor of fine pressure adjustment additionally built into the ozonator to ensure its protection from excessive pressure at the oxygen inlet. In order to guarantee operation and fire safety and to automatically check the overheating of the discharge chamber and inner systems, there are highly sensitive Japanese electronic detectors of pressure, temperature, electric power overload installed, which prevent the spillage of physiological solution over the ozonator and switch off the ozonator at the slightest hazard, with the error code shown on the colour display, which is accompanied by a sound signal. 

The apparatus permits the adjustment and setting the speed of ozone-oxygen mixture delivery at 0,5; 1,0; 2,0 l/min., which is entered, fixed on the display and rigidly maintained by the automated system. The manufacturer guarantees warranty repair within the time span of 2 years and ozonator post-warranty service during the whole of its operation life, however, no less than 15 years. 
The risk of accidental ozone inhalation impact is reduced to the minimum due to the application of the reliable catalytic or additional import destructor, ozone-resistant materials and the pressure-tight connections.

The time function is provided in the ozonator, which allows the owner of the ozonator to automatically and constantly control and determine the time of the personnel operating the ozonator by progressive total. The ozonator features an electronic slot enabling it to be connected to a PC. The apparatus features the basic and additional tool kit as well as the Recommended methods for administering ozone therapy, which are the first Ukraine and the only in the CIS to have been approved in 2001 by the Ukrainian Ministry of Health for performing various manipulations and more than 30 methods of ozone therapy (all the methods of Russia and the CIS have been approved by the medical higher educational establishments). The basic tool kit comprises the following: (water or oil bubbling device, destructor for decomposing used ozone-oxygen mixture, 180 and 90 mm needles for ozonising physiological solution with mandrins, a 6mm diameter oxygen delivering tube, 5 mm diameter ozone-resistant tube for connecting the kit and the devices to the ozonator, assembly kit – ozone-resistant connector-adaptors and T-junctions, scientific medical literature approved by the Ukrainian Ministry of Health. On the clinical site of the institute device purchasers are offered subject in-service training for doctors and nurses in "Ozone Therapy Fundamentals” including the application of ozone in cosmetology with the corresponding certificate awarded on the free-of-charge basis.

Due to the possibility of setting various combinations of treatment session parameters (ozone concentration, mixture delivery speed, the length of the treatment session) on the ozonator monitor, doctors can administer reasonable, predictable, dose-dependent ozone therapy, precisely and accurately dosing the amount of ozone and applying it in very much the same way as pharmacological remedies. 
   Over 12,5 years of application, the OZONE UM-80 ozonator, sophisticated inside, but very easy to control and operate, has gained a firm standing as a reliable, safe source of medical ozone, meeting all the present-day medical as well as sanitary and hygienic requirements.
