UV-C TECH sterilizer 75W/70 m3

Disinfection using ultraviolet radiation is among the technologies that are increasingly being used to improve the treatment of drinking and pool water. The principle of disinfection involves the photochemical damage to RNA and DNA, proteins, enzymes, or other biologically significant macromolecules.

The effectiveness of disinfection depends on the dose of UV radiation, the type of UV lamp used, and their arrangement with respect to the flow direction of drinking or pool water. To select the appropriate type of UV equipment, it is necessary to determine and ensure the required dose of UV radiation, which depends on the flow rate and the quality of water in terms of its transparency, i.e., the concentration and type of dissolved and undissolved substances that affect the reflection and absorption of UV radiation.

Low-pressure monochromatic UV lamps emit UV radiation with a wavelength of 254 nm. The intensity of the emitted UV energy is only at one level and strongly depends on the temperature of the treated water and the flow rate. As a result, this type of low-pressure UV lamp has only germicidal effects.

The possibility of combining UV radiation with other treatment technologies leads to achieving high water quality. The advantage is the reduction in operational requirements, savings in dosed chemicals, and safe and easy operation in automatic mode. The disadvantage is the possibility of secondary contamination, so UV radiation itself is not suitable for hygienic protection. In practice, it is therefore combined, for example, with chlorination.
 

• The lamp is hermetically sealed in a housing
• UV radiation is fatally dangerous for the vast majority of organisms. We use it to destroy algae, parasites, molds, viruses, yeasts, and bacteria present in water
• Lamp life up to 9,000 hours
