UV Sterilizer

UV sterilizers are used to purify/disinfect water from bacteriological contamination that may exist in water sources, e.g. shallow wells or surface intakes. Disinfection is based on the bactericidal effect of the UV lamps in the sterilizer. The principle of their bactericide action is the absorption of UV light by the DNA structures of microorganisms. Proper selection of UV rays strength and exposure time can kill almost all microorganisms by destroying their DNA.
Water treatment with UV Irradiation is one of the most effective and safest methods of water purification because water is not purified by chemical compounds. Another advantage is the lack of influence on water taste and smell. Depending on the water demand, sterilizers can be equipped with 1 to up to 8 lamps. Lamps used in IBO sterilizers are manufactured by Philips and their service life is 8000h. The smallest sterilizers are designed for 1 l/min. flow, the largest available on request for flow up to 3600l/min. When using sterilizers with UV lamps, it is important to leave the lamps on even if there is no water flow because frequent on/off switching significantly reduces their life.
It should be remembered that the efficiency of the sterilizer depends largely on the quality of the water that flows through it, so we recommend to install in-line filters upstream the sterilizer to remove any mechanical impurities, such as sand. Moreover, the iron content and water hardness also affect the effectiveness of water purification. The iron in the water should not exceed 0.1mg/l while the hardness of the water should be less than 110 CaCo3mg/l.
