Features and Benefits
Situated in the electro- magnetic spectrum between X-rays and visible light, Ultraviolet (UV) light has many beneficial properties. UV light is split into four main categories, UV-A, UV-B, UV-C and Vacuum UV. The area between 240 and 280 nanometres (nm) is UV-C, commonly known as the germicidal region.
UV light is a physical, non-intrusive method of ensuring that organisms, which are airborne or present in most fluids, are unable to replicate
UV does not affect the taste, colour, or pH of the fluid being disinfected
Low Pressure Amalgam lamps offer unparalleled electrical efficiency
Medium pressure lamps offer the same disinfection properties as low pressure lamps at much greater levels
Typical Applications
For a number of applications, medium pressure lamps are incorporated due to their small footprint and short arc length, for example Retrofits into existing small footprint facilities. Our UV monitors can be offered as NIST traceable devices and fit into dry ports that permit reference monitors to be inserted without breaking a water seal to validate the lamp output. In all cases, the sensor technology we use is specific to germicidal UV and blind to visible light and IR.
