UV - Vertical Type - Self Cleaning Option

Vertical "VM" Chamber Type

How it works: Ultraviolet light is invisible, electromagnetic energy with wave lengths, between visible light and x-rays.  UV light has long been acknowledged as a means of disinfection because of its ability to kill bacteria by penetrating their outer membrane and impairing proper DNA function. When UV light is harnessed and properly transmitted, it provides a practical, safe and inexpensive means of water disinfection.  This is achieved through the use of low pressure mercury vapor lamps generate UV radiation in wavelengths as 2537A capable of destroying virtually all known forms of microorganisms and viruses.

Advantages: Environmentally positive; no chemicals needed or added Greater safety for operators Greater effectiveness on a wide range of pathogens Fast treatment times, typically less than 10 seconds Lowest operating cost of any disinfection process Reduces capital cost Reduces liability insurance premiums Simple operation Minimal system maintenance requirements

Standard Features: 304 stainless steel construction NPT or Flange fittings Electro-polished and passivated Elapsed time meter (non-resettable) Modified NEMA 4 enclosure L.E.D. display to indicate lamp status on/off Fan cooled

Optional Accessories: Sanitary fittings Ultraviolet Intensity monitors Automatic or manual quartz wiping system for automatic quartz cleaning (Air Compressor Required) Remote monitoring NEMA 4X enclosure for outdoor installations 316 stainless steel
