Submersible UV sterilizer 6m3/H for aquaculture
Overview
The integrated or ballast external profile includes: Quartz UV bactericidal lamps, quartz tubes, sealing accessories, four-hole plug. Rubber cap, protection and indicator lights and external electronic ballast. The bactericidal lamps can dive into the water and realize 360 degrees of sterilization, achieving sterilization affect three times as much as that of water surface bacterial lamps. It is designed by the principle that the uv of uv-c (253.7nm wavelength) can damage and kill the microorganism DNA. It is equipped with the high-purity quartz tubes, high-performance quartz low-voltage mercury UV bactericidal lamps and ballast especially for UV bactericidal lamps.

UVC systems virtually eliminate microbiological contaminants without using potentially hazardous chemicals. Water enters through the bottom port of the ultraviolet generator cell and swirls around a low pressure mercury vapor lamp, which emits powerful ultraviolet light energy at 235.7nm wave length. Bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms absorb the light energy which disrupts their DNA, and are destroyed safely inside a factory tested stainless steel cell. The treated water then exits through the top port of the cell and is ready for consumption.
What does a UV sterilizer do?<o:p>
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 do UV sterilizers work?<o:p>
The UV sterilizer utilizes a germicidal fluorescent lamp that produces light at a wavelength of approximately 254 nanometers (2537 Angstroms). The water with the bacteria/algae passes over the bulb (or around the bulb if a quartz sleeve is used) and is irradiated with this wavelength. As the light penetrates the bacteria/algae, it mutates the DNA (genetic material), preventing growth/multiplication of the organism.<o:p>
In which types of systems should UV sterilizers be used and what are the benefits?<o:p>
A UV sterilizer may be used in any aquarium, however, in smaller aquariums (less than 24 gallons), the cost of the unit may make it impractical. UV sterilizers are most helpful in multiple tank systems that share a common filter. In a single tank system, they are beneficial in controlling the spread of an infectious disease if one occurs. This is especially true in heavily stocked tanks and those with large amounts of live rock and corals that could make catching and isolating a diseased fish difficult, or the use of certain medications contraindicated. Disease control is especially important when adding new fish to an established aquarium, since 98% of the hobbyists do not use a quarantine aquarium.<o:p>
In ponds, UV sterilizers are one of the best ways to control free-floating algae, allowing the pond owner to see and enjoy the fish. The UV sterilizer will also kill free-floating bacteria in the pond water.<o:p>
