and a proven more effective method
than UV lamps.
COMMONLY OCCURRING PROBLEM
- WHEN CHLORINE IS REMOVED AND UV IS ESSENTIALLY NOT RELIABLE-
Many filtration systems are able to remove contaminants and residual disinfection, including chlorine, from the feed
water. While bacteriological contaminants can exist in accidentally improperly purified drinking water and result in
sickness on a short term basis, a more serious danger is caused by biofilm accumulation. The latter can cause
severe gastrointestinal illnesses and mortality among immune compromised individuals.
ICE is no different than food or water. Anything consumed should be clean. Ice machines are extremely prone to
microbial contamination. Gastroenteritis occurring in outbreaks due to consumption of contaminated ice has been
commonly reported in many countries and regions. The daily consumption of ice is increasing. The quality of the
water source of the ice machine affects the ice produced. However, the big issue is even clean, purified water can
turn into CONTAMINATED ICE.
Nowadays, clean ice and clean ice storage bins are key to improve the product quality; the higher level of hygiene
can be the better turnover. Although ice machine sanitation has been given great attention of late, the current and
traditional methods need to be addressed:
The use of chlorine can influence taste and form toxic by-products; which has an impact
on our health; much like bacteria. As well, frequent service is required; causing inconvenience and extra costs.
The use of UV requires water pre-treatment. Its capacity is small and failure rate is high.
The use of UV lamps requires high replacement frequency, which in turn means high cost
to maintain effectiveness.
Assisting in your ice machine sanitation, GO-3 Ozone Systems’ IMS ice sanitation system is an advanced,
multi-method approach to defending your ice machine against undesirable microbes, bacteria, mold, and algae.
DISSOLVED OZONE IS THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION FOR THIS
Contaminated ice is an imminent danger to individual health and
an establishment's image and reputation.
While it may seem like having your icemaker shut down for a few days isn't a big blow to business,
poor public opinion caused by negative press could do quite a bit of damage to your reputation.
Contaminated ice is a potential hazard and liability risk to your business.
The results can be fatal and costs can be enormous.
The importance of a clean ice machine can be measured in the amount of money spent to repair and
clean the machine. Microbial growth leading to biofilm slime is one of the leading causes of ice machine breakdown.

Potable water that is properly treated at the inlet to the ice machine can keep your ice clean.
Ice storage bin that is regularly disinfected using ozonated water spray can keep your machine bacteria free.
Hygienically impeccable water is supplied thanks to external Point-Of-Use (POU) GO-3 IMS disinfection!
Immediate and safe destruction of existing microorganisms without chemicals
Does not alter taste or smell of water or ice
Low initial and operating costs, high return on investment
High reliability and performance
Connects directly to the ice machine's supply water pipe
Easy drop-in integration with current icemaker
Easy to read indicator for part replacement
GO-3 IMS MEANS SANITARY ICE
GO-3 IMS can supply ozonated water at a constant concentration above 0.5 ppm to the ice machine. When the ozonated water
is mixed with the input stream, contaminants are destroyed and
the water is purified immediately. Low concentration ozone
residual disinfection remains in the ice to maintain cleanliness
before consumption.
GO-3 IMS MEANS EASIER CLEANING
Other traditional sanitation methods (such as chlorine treatment or
UV lamps) can either leave residuals that alter taste or provide less
effective disinfection. They require regular and frequent maintenance, causing uncertainties and unreliability.
GO-3 IMS MEANS FULL RANGE
CAPABILITY
GO-3 IMS also ensures your Ice Storage Bin is clean. IMS
supplies dissolved ozonated water at 0.5~1.5 ppm through an
attached spray bar. It can be conveniently used to sanitize the
machine at any time. Ozone's clean and safe antimicrobial
power eliminates the risks of biofilm and bacteria growth in the
bins, and leaves no residuals or alters ice quality.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has developed a process by which it
evaluates the sanitary conditions of food, called the Hazard Analysis and Critical
Control Points (HACCP). The HACCP is used in the food industry to identify
potential food safety hazards, so that key actions, known as Critical Control Points
(CCP's) can be taken to reduce or eliminate the risk of the hazards being realized.
GO-3 ice sanitation product can be an essential tool for making clean ice and
keeping it clean, free of bacteria and germs that could otherwise result in failing a
health inspection.

Ozone is the world’s most powerful and cost effective oxidizing
agent known. Ozone kills E.coli approximately 3,000 times faster
than chlorine, and is capable of eliminating all strains of bacteria,
viruses, and other waterborne microorganisms including Escherchia coli, Salmonella, Giardia, and Cryptosporidium. In 1991, the
US Environmental Protection Agency confirmed that ozone is the
most effective primary disinfectant available for drinking water.
With GO-3 Ozone, dissolved ozone becomes environmentally
friendly, compact, cost effective, and simple, safe and reliable to
operate. Using GO-3’s electrolytic technology, high purity ozone
can be directly produced from municipal water supply with very
low energy consumption. GO-3’s electrolytic ozone generation
does not produce any harmful substances or toxic by-products.
No feed gas or expensive external equipment is required.

Product Specifications
Product
The World’s leading
Ozone Sanitation Technology with GO-3
Our patented technology generates pure, high
concentration ozone directly from tap water purified
within our ozone systems. No other substance
besides water is used in the electrolysis, so only pure
ozone without any harmful byproducts (such as NOx)
is produced. In addition, this new technology uses
high pressure nebulization to achieve an even higher
ozone dissolution rate. The high concentration
ozonated water contains no trace of off gas and its
milky colour, indicating presence of ozone, assures
users that all bacteria and viruses are eliminated.
GO-3 IMS ice sanitation system does not require PLC
(Programmable logic controller) control. Once
connected to the ice machine’s water supply, the
system operates automatically with the ice machine,
providing ease and convenience. The long lifetime and
reliability of the system eliminates the need for
frequent maintenance and extra on-site service.
