How Does Ultra Violet Light Work?

UV rays can destroy 99.99% of harmful micro-organisms without adding chemicals or altering your water’s taste or odour. Ultraviolet light (UV) is a natural part of sunlight and is widely accepted as a reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly solution for water disinfection.

The UV lamp uses a 254nm wavelength radiator to neutralize micro-organisms by damaging their DNA, thereby eliminating their ability to survive or reproduce. Water passes through a specially designed chamber that ensures full contact with the UV light. Microbial cells absorb this energy, resulting in their inactivation.

UV radiation can also break down certain organic compounds into smaller, less harmful molecules. However, the effectiveness of UV light is influenced by:

• The duration of exposure

• Power consistency of the UV source

• The presence of particles in the water that might shield organisms

• The resistance of specific organisms to UV radiation

It is highly recommended to filter the water before UV treatment to remove sediments or suspended matter. Also, ensure that the UV sterilizer used is appropriately sized for your water system’s maximum flow rate.
