Overview

The AquaVolta® H2-TURBO is a 6th generation hydrogen booster designed to produce electroactivated, hydrogen-rich water. The brand name combines "Aqua" (Latin for water) and "Volta" (after Alessandro Volta, inventor of the battery), signifying "electroactivated water." This device is engineered to create water with a negative electrical voltage (negative redox potential), which is associated with antioxidant properties. The primary mechanism for its antioxidant power is the dissolved hydrogen gas (dH2) content.

Function Description:

The AquaVolta® H2-TURBO operates on the principle of water electrolysis, specifically utilizing a PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) cell. This cell efficiently separates hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gases, ensuring that only hydrogen accumulates in the water. The device also incorporates a pressure system to maximize the dissolution of H2 into the water. The 6th generation booster features enhanced nano-bubbles, which significantly increase the efficiency of hydrogen dissolution.

The device is composed of three main components: the H2 generator, the production vessel (a 250 ml Tritan container), and a lid. Two types of lids are available: one for H2 water production and another for H2 inhalation. The device is designed for "do-it-yourself" hydrogen water production, offering an alternative to pre-packaged hydrogen water products.

Usage Features:

The AquaVolta® H2-TURBO is portable and powered by a long-lasting battery, allowing for use anytime and anywhere. It offers flexibility in water selection, compatible with filtered tap water, reverse osmosis (RO) water, and mineral water. The Tritan container can be unscrewed and replaced with a standard 30 mm threaded mineral water bottle (plastic bottles only). However, it is crucial that the water used does not contain carbonic acid (sparkling water), as this can damage the device or cause it to burst due to excessive gas pressure. When using bottles without pressure equalization holes, the maximum production time is limited to 10 minutes.

To operate, the device must be filled with drinking water. Before first use, the production vessel should be filled with water for at least 30 minutes to soak the electrolyte membrane, then the water should be poured away. The orange silicone plug must be removed from the production vessel before commissioning.

The device is activated by pressing the start button for 3 seconds, indicated by a beep and a blue light. Hydrogen production is visible through fine bubbles. A 5-minute production cycle is initiated. Pressing the button again briefly during this cycle starts a 20-minute interval operation (5 min production - 10 min pause - 5 min production), indicated by a purple light. For H2 inhalation, a special 40-minute operation can be activated by briefly pressing the start button again during the "Purple" operating mode, provided the battery is sufficiently charged. This mode is indicated by a green display. A nasal cannula is provided for H2 inhalation, delivering approximately 5 ml of H2 gas per minute.

Maintenance Features:

Regular cleaning is essential for hygiene and optimal performance. The inside of the Tritan container and the grid-shaped minus electrode (where hydrogen is produced) should be cleaned every two weeks, or if an odor is perceived. This involves dissolving 1 teaspoon of citric acid in lukewarm water (50-60°C), closing the screw cap, shaking vigorously for 30 seconds, and allowing it to react for 1 hour. Afterward, the container, lid, and electrode should be rinsed several times with warm water. Coarse soiling can also be removed by half-filling the pressure vessel with warm water, shaking, and pouring out the rinsing water. The exterior of the device can be wiped with a damp soft cloth.

The production vessel should be kept constantly moist, and filled water should never exceed 60°C. The device should never be immersed in water. Repeated hydrogen production cycles should not be started without opening the lid in between.
