Ultraviolet Sterilizer Systems

UV Water Treatment Systems for Purer Water

The FDA has determined that water can be purified through the application of UV (ultraviolet) light. Unlike other methods of purification (for example the use of chlorine) a UV water sterilizer is odorless, low risk, low maintenance and doesn't use any chemicals or other additives. UV water purification systems usually consist of a UV lamp surrounded by circulating water. There is usually a quartz barrier between the water and the UV source, so the water doesn't touch it directly. UV Filtration System Prevents Microorganism Build-Up When the water passes through the UV water filter, it's hit with UV rays. Any bacteria, germs or other tiny organisms are harmed by the UV radiation. The effect of this is that they are unable to reproduce. Although the organisms are still alive, their inability to reproduce means that they cannot achieve the concentrations necessary to cause damage. They continue to stay in the water until they are ingested and destroyed by the body's immune system, or simply die of old age. UV Water Filtration Systems for Home Use It's important to remember that water should already have been treated before further processing through a UV purifier – this ensures maximum protection against bacteria and other harmful organisms. The UV lights in your system normally need to be renewed annually (after about nine thousand hours of use). It's also important to check that your purifier's capacity is larger than the amount of water you use, to ensure efficient, effective purification.

Why Use Trojan UV Water Disinfection System

UV disinfection systems offer a great alternative to chemical disinfection like chlorine. Trojan UVMAX solves this problem by offering UV water systems that give off the proper amount of illumination (measured in mJ/cm2) with enough contact time to effectively disinfect water. Trojan UVMAX offers units that meet the requirements of NSF standards which requires units to have a minimum of 40,000 mJ/cm2. The Trojan UVMAX Pro Series (STD.55 Class A) makes this a standard reaching flow rates of up to 50 GPM.
