Ultraviolet water purification
is a unique and rapid technique to rid water of bacteria, mold, virus and
algae without the use of heat or chemicals.
This method of water
disinfection is ideal for many applications because nothing is added to
the water. In addition to excellent disinfection performance, this process
is simple, inexpensive, requires low maintenance and is more reliable when
compared to other methods of water disinfection.
HOW IT WORKS
The water enters the
purifier and flows into the annular space between the quartz sleeve and
the outside chamber wall.
The wiper segments induce
turbulence in the flowing liquid to insure uniform exposure of suspended
micros-organisms to the lethal ultraviolet rays.
The sight port enables
visual observation of lamp operation.
The wiper assembly
facilitates periodic cleansing of the quartz sleeve without any
disassembly or interruption of purifier operation.
Water leaving the purifier
is instantly ready for use.
ADVANTAGES OF THE ULTRAVIOLET
METHOD
Effective - All
micro-organisms are susceptible to ultraviolet disinfection.
Economical - Hundreds of gallons can be purified for each penny
operating cost.
Safe - No danger of overdosing, no addition of dangerous chemicals.
Fast - Water is ready for use as soon as it leaves the purifier - no
further contact time required.
Easy - Simple installation and maintenance. Compact units require
minimum space.
Automatic - Provides continuous or intermittent disinfection without
special attention or measurement.
No Chemicals - No chlorine taste or corrosion problems.
APPLICATIONS
Farms and Ranches:
Bacteria free animal drinking water
increases production by eliminating losses due to water-borne infection.
Improved sanitation promotes healthier stock and higher yields
Water Wells:
Eliminates bacteria which may
build up from time to time from seepage of surface water or sewage
Bottling Manufacture:
Insures bacteria free water for use in product at breweries, wineries,
soft drink and water bottling facilities
Pharmaceutical and
Cosmetic Industries: Bacteria free water insures compliance with
strict water treatment standards necessary for product quality control
Laboratories:
Provides ultra-pure water required for accurate testing and research
Hospitals: Insures
ultra-pure water for pathology labs, kidney dialysis and post
disinfection rinses where bacteria free water is essential
Electronics Industry:
Insures bacteria free water for use in conjunction with de-ionized and
high purity water systems
Food Industries:
Insures bacteria free water as an additive to product and also as a
rinse before packaging to guard against water-borne bacteria spoilage in
vegetables, fruits, meats, fish and other products
Private Homes, Trailer
Parks, Recreation Vehicles, Schools, Hotels, Airplanes: Provide
safe, germ-free drinking water. Destroying bacteria, a serious problem
for rural water supplies and stored water usage, prevents disease
Aquariums and Hatcheries:
Bacteria free water prevents disease organisms from growing or spreading
without producing by-products toxic to marine life
Wastewater Treatment
Plants: Affords an excellent post water treatment of secondary
effluent to reduce bacterial concentrations to safe levels without
introducing a toxicant to fish and other marine life in the receiving
waters
Nurseries: Bacteria
free water minimizes losses from widespread root rot infection, a common
problem in trees and plants caused by a diseased water supply
Swimming Pools: Helps
control bacteria, algae and slime formation. Ultraviolet water
purification allows the user to substantially reduce the chlorine usage
What is Ultraviolet
Light?
Ultraviolet light is part of the light
spectrum, which is classified into three wavelength ranges: UV-C, from 100
nanometers (nm) to 280 nm; UV-B, from 280 nm to 315 nm; and UV-A, from 315
nm to 400 nm.
What is Germicidal Ultraviolet?
UV-C light is germicidal - i.e., it
deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens and thus
destroys their ability to multiply and cause disease. Specifically, UV-C
light causes damage to the nucleic acid of microorganisms by forming
covalent bonds between certain adjacent bases in the DNA. The formation of
such bonds prevent the DNA from being unzipped for replication, and the
organism is unable to reproduce. In fact, when the organism tries to
replicate, it dies.
Ultraviolet technology is a non-chemical
approach to disinfection. In this method of disinfection, nothing is added
which makes this process simple, inexpensive and requires very low
maintenance. Ultraviolet purifiers utilize germicidal lamps and these
units are designed and calculated to produce a certain dosage of
ultraviolet (usually at least 16,000 microwatt seconds per square
centimeter but many units actually have a much higher dosage.) The
principle of design is based on a product of time and intensity - you must
have a certain amount of both for a successful design.

How do UV water purifiers
work?
UV water purifier units contain one or more germicidal ultraviolet
lamps. The Ster-L-Ray
germicidal lamp brand are
short wave low pressure mercury vapor tubes that produce ultraviolet
wavelengths that are lethal to micro-organisms. Approximately 95% of the
ultraviolet energy emitted is at the mercury resonance line of 254
nanometers. This wavelength is in the region of maximum germicidal
effectiveness and is highly lethal to virus, bacteria and mold spores.
