Description
UV Water Treatment systems use special lamps that emit UV light of a particular wavelength that has the ability, based on their length, to disrupt the DNA of micro-organisms. These UV light waves are also referred to as the Germicidal Spectrum or Frequency. The frequency used in killing micro-organisms is 254 nanometers (nm). As water flows through the UV system, living organisms in water are exposed to UV light which attacks the genetic code of the microorganism, eliminating the microorganism’s ability to function and reproduce. If a microorganism can no longer reproduce, it cannot multiply, therefore it cannot infect other organisms with which it has contact. This process of exposing water to the UV light is simple but effective, destroying 99.99% of harmful microorganisms without adding any chemicals to the water.
How does the UV Sterilizer work?
Many water purification systems take advantage of a UV water sterilizer even after processing their water. This is a well-known practice. Throughout the years’ ultraviolet technology has become well established as a chosen method for effective and economical water disinfection. Ultraviolet water sterilization claims many advantages: All microorganisms are virtually susceptible to ultraviolet disinfection. For every penny of operating cost, hundreds of gallons of water are purified. NO additional chemicals are added and there’s no danger of overdosing. Once the water leaves the purifier, it is ready for use with no further contact time required. It has simple and easy to install and maintain. Compact units need a small space to operate and store. Ultraviolet water sterilizers deliver ongoing disinfection without special attention or measurement. There are no detections of chlorine taste or corrosion problems.
