Ultra Violet Lights and Systems
UV Lights
The germicidal properties of sunlight are well known for centuries. The germicidal power of sunlight comes from UV-C part of light spectrum. UVC radiation has wavelengths ranging from 200nm to 280nm. Today, germicidal UV Systems are used extensively across Australia and worldwide providing reliable disinfection for potable water, process water, wastewater, air and surfaces.
Advantages of UV Disinfection:
Advantages of UV Disinfection:
- No microorganism can resist correctly delivered and sufficiently high UV dose
- UV does not change taste, odour, colour or pH of water
- UV does not require the addition of chemicals – so is OH&S friendly
- UV does not generate disinfection by-products in water
- UV systems are compact and easy to install
- UV systems require very little maintenance
- Running costs are often lower than those of a household lightbulb
