Low Head Oxygenators

 

 
   
   
     
 

A Low Head Oxygenator (LHO™) is a patented device used to efficiently supersaturate aquaculture system water with oxygen without experiencing the high head requirements that are characteristic of other oxygenation equipment.  PR Aqua is a licensed manufacturer of LHO™'s.

How It Works

Water with a low dissolved oxygen concentration is distributed across an orifice plate at the top of the LHO™.  The droplets fall evenly into chambers beneath where the oxygen (and/or ozone) gas is injected at one side of the vessel and passes through each chamber in series.  Oxygen is driven into the water while nitrogen is forced out.  The LHO™ must be submerged in water to a specified depth.  The freshly oxygenated water flows out the open bottom of the LHO™ into the supply header tank ready for further treatment or the culture tanks.  The oxygen depleted gas mixture escapes by bubbling out the burp tube.
