Product name: Ultraviolet Water Sterilizer
Advantages
There are several advantages of using UV water filtration system rather than a chemical disinfection solution(such as chlorination):
1.No known toxic or significant nontoxic byproducts
2.No danger of overdosing
3.Does not require storage of hazardous material
4.Adds no smell to the final water product
5.Requires very little contact time
Optimal service condition:
As UV is a short- wavelength light wave, it has low radiant energy and weak penetrating power
and can only kill the microorganisms it directly radiates on. Therefore, in order to enhance the
bacteria-killing efficiency and ensure the security of drinking water, the incoming water into the
sterilizer must meet the following standard, (and if exceeding the following standard, the killing
efficiency may be affected).
Total iron content | Less than 0.3ppm(0.3mg/L) |
H2S | Less than 0.05ppm(0.05mg/L) |
Total suspended matter | Less than 10 mg/L |
Manganese content | Less than 0.05 mg/L |
Water hardness | Less than 120 mg/L |
Chroma | Less than 15centigrade |
Water Temp. | 5-60Centigrade |
PH value | 6.5-8 |
Interface type | flange or thread |
What does a UV sterilizer do?
Ultraviolet sterilization (UV) is a process to eliminate biological contamination, namely parasite
fungus and bacteria. Two types are commercially available, both in tube size. Generally the one
containing a wet bulb -at which the water passes directly past the UV bulb- is cheaper.
The other type available has a protective quartz tube around the bulb (dry bulb). The latter has
the advantage of easier cleaning, since debris and slime will eventually settle on the bulb, or quartz
surrounding. Both work on the same principle. UV sterilization exposes the contaminants with a
lethal dose of energy in the form of light. The UV light will alter the DNA of the pathogens, by
virtually gluing DNA molecules together. The changed cell structure prevents the organism from
reproducing itself (sterilization), therefore eliminating it.
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 and Legionella pneumophila 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%.
Specifically, the following are moved to an efficiency of greater than 99.99%:
E-coli
Salmonella typhl (Typhoid fever)
Salmonella enteritidis (Gastroenteritis)
Vibrio cholerae (Cholera)
Mycobacetrium Tuberculosis (Tuberculosis)
Legionella pneumophila (Legionnaires Disease)
Influenza Virus
Polio virus
Hepatitus A Virus (better than 90%)

UV systems applications include private wells, campgrounds, hotels, bottlers, aquaculture,hospitals, food, cottages, restaurants, breweries, water systems, laboratories, marine, pharmaceutical, dairies and many other applications.
FAQ:
Q. Are UV sterilizers a good replacement for biological and mechanical filtration?
A. NO. UV sterilizers are not a replacement for good biological and mechanical filtration, regular water changes,or proper control of the nitrogen cycle.
Q.What is the proper maintenance schedule for UV sterilizers?
A.The quartz sleeve will need to be checked monthly and removed and cleaned with rubbing alcohol. Some larger UV sterilizers have wiper mechanism units installed for easier maintenance.
Q:How is a UV sterilizer installed?
The UV sterilizer should be the last piece of equipment in the system before the water is returned to the aquarium. It should be preceded by the biological and mechanical filters, and any chemical filter or heat exchanger in the system. Follow the manufacturer's directions on installation. Most units use hose barb connectors to attach to the appropriate water pump or are designed to allow add-on connectors as a PVC slip fit or hose barb attachment.
