- Ultra Violet Light Work?
UV rays can destroy 99.99% of harmful micro-organisms without adding chemicals or changing your water’s taste or odour. Ultraviolet light (UV) is a natural part of the sunlight and is widely accepted as a reliable, efficient and environmentally friendly solution for water disinfection. The UV lamp utilizes the application of a particularly efficient UV radiator with a 254nm wavelength to cause immediate death to organisms and eliminate their ability to survive and reproduce. - The water is exposed to UV radiation in a specially designed chamber that provides intimate contact of the water with the UV light source. Bacteria and other living organisms absorb the energy, which destroys or inactivates their DNA, thus preventing them from reproducing. Similarly, chemicals and organic compounds also absorb the energy and are broken down into smaller, more harmless molecules.
- The effectiveness of UV light depends on several factors:
The length of time a micro-organism is exposed to UV
Power fluctuations that affect the UV source and EM wavelength
The presence of particles that shield organisms from UV
The resilience of certain organisms during UV exposure
It is highly recommended to filter the water before it passes through the UV chamber to remove all loose particles and ensure optimal UV penetration. It is also critical to ensure the UV light used matches or exceeds the system’s maximum flow capacity.
