To conduct continuous operation for a long time without lowering the generating efficiency by providing an electrolytic cell having a couple of electrodes, furnishing an on-off means between the electrode and a power source device and operating an interelectrode discharge means when the means is off.
An electrolytic device 100 consists of an electrolytic cell 1, an on-off means 4 and an interelectrode discharge means 5. When a switch is on, a current is applied to an electrode 2, and a negatively charged ion in the water flowing in an electrolytic passage 6 is concentrated close to an anode and the positively charged ion close to the cathode. At this time, chlorine ion is converted to gaseous chlorine on the anode having a catalyst capable of generating a free chlorine-contg. water, the gaseous chlorine is dissolved in the running water to change the running water into a free chlorine-contg. water, and a negative ion having an opposite charge to the electrode is gradually accumulated. Accordingly, the operation is controlled to discharge the residual charge in a short time to conduct continuous operation without the generation of the electrolytic water being decreased.
