1. An electrolytic cell for producing a halogen biocide in a liquid containing a halogen salt as the liquid is passed therethrough, said electrolytic cell comprising:

  • (a) a cell body defining an open ended chamber which forms a flow path for the liquid;

    (b) a pair of end closure means each mounted on a different one of the open ends of said cell body;

    (c) port means on at least one of said pair of end closure means for passage of the liquid through said electrolytic cell;

    (d) a plurality of electrode plates each having an opposed pair of side edges and an opposed pair of end edges, said plurality of electrode plates being mounted in spaced apart parallel relationship in said cell body and coextensive with the flow path thereof;

    (e) conductor means for connection of less than all of said plurality of electrode plates to a power supply;

    (f) means for encasing the side edges of all of said plurality of electrode plates and the end edges of at least the ones of said plurality of electrode plates which are connectable to the power supply, said means for encasing including,I. said cell body having an opposed pair of end walls with a plurality of spacedly arranged parallel slots formed on the inwardly facing surfaces thereof for encasing the side edges of each of said plurality of electrode plates,II. each of said pair of end closure means including a cap plate for encasing the opposed end edges of the ones of said plurality of electrodes which are connectable to the power supply.
