UV Sterilizer for Industrial Water Disinfection / UV System
Advantages of commercial and residential Ultraviolet Water Sterilizer Systems
No chemicals added to the water supply - no byproducts, (i.e. chlorine + organics = trihalomethanes).
Environmentally and user friendly, no dangerous chemicals to handle or store, no risks of overdosing.
Easy installation, only two water connections and a power connection.
No change in taste, odor, pH or conductivity nor the general chemistry of the water.
More effective against viruses than chlorine.
Extremely economical, hundreds of gallons may be treated for each penny of operating cost.
Immediate treatment process, no need for holding tanks, long retention times, etc.
Automatic operation without special attention or measurement, operator friendly.
Simplicity and ease of maintenance, periodic cleaning, (if applicable), and annual lamp replacement, no moving parts to wear out.
No handling of toxic chemicals, no need for specialized storage requirements.
Low initial capital cost as well as reduced operating expenses when compared with similar technologies such as ozone, chlorine, etc.
What does a UV sterilizer do?
A UV sterilizer is used to control infections by stopping the spread of microorganisms from one fish/coral/invertebrate to another through the water. It is also used in pond applications to control free-floating algae. When operated correctly, free-floating microorganisms will be killed by the UV light. Note that the organisms must be in the water that flows to the UV sterilizer. The UV light has no residual effect and will not kill organisms attached to fish (e.g., adult stage of ich) or rocks (e.g., algae).<o:p>
How Does UV Sterilisation Work?
The optimum solution to remove ecoli , cryptosporidium , coliforms and all bacteria from your water is to install a Nature's Water Ltd. Ultraviolet Water Sterilizer. This will then allow you to have 100% bacteria free water in your premises - NO MORE VIRUSES OR BACTERIA! We can call and install the system for you. Click here for more information. If required we can call to you and assess your premises for location and workings of the system first-hand, Click here for a free call-out. If you would like a full water analysis from the laboratory to ensure that Coliform Bacteria is the only issue click here to arrange a water test.
What Contaminants Do UV Sterilizers Remove?
There are no micro-organisms known to be resistant to UV, unlike chlorination. UV is known to be highly effective against bacteria, viruses, algae, molds and yeasts, and disease causing oocysts like cryptosporidium and giardia. In practice, bacteria and viruses are the cause of most major waterborne pathogenic diseases. Of these enteric viruses, hepatitis virus have been shown to survive for considerable periods in the presence of chlorine, but are readily eliminated by UV treatment. For most microorganisms, the removal efficiency of UV for microbiological contaminants such as bacteria and virus generally exceeds 99.99%.

Principle of Operation
UV water disinfection system design has been carefully conceived to provide adequate germicidal dosage throughout the disinfection chamber. The dosage, as it applies to UV disinfection, is a function of time and the intensity of UV radiation to which the water is exposed. Exposure time is related to the flow rate, the higher the flow rate, the lower the exposure time or the lower the flow rate, the higher the exposure time. The UV intensity is the amount of energy, per unit time, emitted by germicidal lamp. The Dosage is the product of UV intensity and the exposure time.
Limitation of Use
The UV water disinfection system NOT intended for the treatment of water that has an obvious contamination or intentional source, such as raw sewage, nor is the unit intended to convert wastewater to microbiologically safe drinking water.
Water Quality (in)
Water quality plays a major role in the transmission of germicidal UV rays. It is recommended that the water does not exceed following maximum concentration levels
Maximum Concentration Levels (Very Important)
Iron≤ 0.3ppm(0.3mg/L)
Hardness≤ 7gpg(120mg/L)
Turbidity≤ 1NTU
Manganese≤ 0.05ppm(0.05mg/L)
Tannins≤ 0.1ppm(0.3mg/L)
UV Transmittance≥ 750‰
Effectively treating water with higher concentration levels than listed above can be accomplished, but may require added measures to improve water quality to treatable levels. If, for any reason, it is believed the UV transmission is not satisfactory, contact the factory.
UV wavelength (nm)
DOSAGE is the product of intensity & time
Dosage=intensity*time=micro watt/cm2*time=microwatt-seconds per square centimeter
(μ W-s/cm2)
Note: 1000μ W-s/cm2=1mj/cm2(milli-joule/cm2)
As a general guideline, the following are some typical UV transmission rates (UVT)
City water supplies850-980‰
De-ionized or Reverse Osmosis water950-980‰
Surface waters(lakes, rivers, etc)700-900‰
Ground water(wells)900-950‰
Other liquids10-990‰
